    Better. Especially taking out

    What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

      I am actually looking forward to the meeting this Saturday. In talks with my Bishop he said there are still prescriptive parts and sections, but overall it is much more principle based. I don't know as I have not seen it yet.

        Just got my new handbook. Wow, looks like 2.5 hour meeting schedule is allowed!
        "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

          So let it be written, so let it be done!

              Please mail a copy of yours to my ward. Thanks.

                Baby steps.

                Slowly but surely we will get there.

                    To where you can only be in leadership if you are homosexual. Duh!

                      The direction in which we are headed. Unless you are suggesting that the Church is wandering aimlessly.

                        Since you used "there", I assumed you had a specific destination in mind. Otherwise, your "there" is a wandering target.

                          There is a specific destination in mind. And as I said, we are getting there. Slowly but surely.

                          That you are unaware of the destination speaks volumes. Better put some oil in your lamp, foolish virgin.

                            And the specific destination you have in mind is?
