I learned in church today

Who knows? Maybe they'll marry into money, have a great family and get to ride 4-wheelers at work every day. Who could be a cynic with a life like that?

That there puts it all in perspective.

Someone who is a real POS, obviously.

Pass, thanks.

Visit from the SP today, he said no kid in the stake should have Internet or picture messaging capabilities on a phone or iPod.

As a cheap son of a bitch, this is just the kind of inspired leadership I hope my kids are privileged to serve under when they approach puberty.

Speaking of electronics at church, we were visiting another ward today and the speaker said that he brought his non-LDS boss to church and he later commented that he was shocked at how may people were using electronic devices at church. The speaker explained that the devices can be used to read lesson manuals, scriptures, etc. The boss said that that would not explain all the devices used during sacrament meeting. The speaker concluded that all of the slackers in the ward using electronic devices to play games or check on sports scores had cost the church a convert.

I leaned over and whispered to my wife that it was a shame we lost out on the guy. With the ability to pronounce superficial judgement like that, he would have fit right in.

Another funny thing at the same ward: kid in the bench two rows in front of us takes a small sip from his sacrament cup and the throws the remaining water right in the face of his sister. His sister runs down the row (almost knocking over the tray) to tattle. Mom mumbles something and the sister goes back and stops in front of the brother, sticks out her tongue, and punches him in the stomach. Then when the tray comes back on the way out the both grab it the same time and start fighting over it. Only a quick move by the attentive deacon saved the tray from flying to the ground.

Those of you worrying about how your kids behave at church, I bet you can't top that.

I think I mistakenly went to the church of the US constitution today.

I missed my sacrament meeting today, but from what I heard it was about missionary work. There wasn't even a patriotic hymn listed in the program. I arrived just in time to be roped into subbing for nursery. On the bright side, it is better than going to elders quorum.

I actually like when that happens to me.

Sad behavior indeed. If this kid had any understanding of the atonement and the sacrament, he would have spit in her face and THEN taken the sacrament.

Can't top it, but observed a funny thing as I ended helping to pass today. A mother takes a piece of bread and hands it to her 3 year old. The 3 year old folds her arms, purses her lips and shakes her head no. The unfazed mom took the piece of bread and grabbed the girl by the back of her head and crammed the bread into her mouth.

Out of habit I'm sure. I've done that with dinner and my own kids before.

I learned that the wonderful ground-breaking revelation lowering the missionary age is a fulfillment of scripture that will "hasten the work" of the Lord.

That no unhallowed hand will stop the chapel cleaning program. Thursday July 4, 8 p.m. We'll see you there!
