    16. Take the bit about "mild drinks made from barley" at face value. And maybe once or twice a year stronger drinks made from grains too.

      I need a clarification on this. What if they pay their tithing to a LDS charity of their choice (like BYU)and then tells the Bishop, straight up, that he considers that his tithing is paid in full and is just cutting out the middle man?

        17. A past prophet was once wrong about X (little green men on the moon, priesthood ban, etc.,) ergo the current prophet is wrong about Y (pick a pet issue, usually gay marriage or women and priesthood.)

                          This actually comes from the "technical and scientific professional's handbook", not so much the ProgMo playbook. Handbook 2, if I recall correctly.

                          Maybe there is a correlation between ProgMos and engineers/scientists, but I don't know.

                            22. You have no problem fibbing, and saying you believe TSM is a prophet and the only person on earth with the keys to God's church, but you have far too much integrity to lie about paying tithing. Therefore, because you refuse to pay tithing to an organization that spends its money on real estate development, you will be forced by a bunch of greedy octogenarians to miss your brother/sister/cousin's wedding.
