    Stand by the black guy and you'll get plenty of air time.

      I'll put in the request to the seating chairman, but I think the black guy is a tenor or baritone.

        Does this make Copelius the closest thing to a GA we have on CS? I don't know anybody else who has been live on camera during a session of general conference.

            One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.

                We are actually pretty diverse. Just not within the required 100 miles of temple square.

                  Even within Temple Square, tbh. If you don't believe me, just check out the conference issue of the Ensign!

                          While reading through some old conference talks, I found it interesting that the slippery slope argument was being used all the way back in 1881: http://jod.mrm.org/22/169

                          But no, my friends, I will tell you: If we were to give up polygamy today—if we were to say to our government, “Oh, yes, we will give up polygamy”—why the next they would say would be, But look here; you have got to give up something more than that.” They would tell us, as the Missourians did, that we must quit believing in prophets, apostles and revelation. The same feeling exists today as existed then.
                          I wonder if Pres Woodruff would be shocked to find out that even though we gave up polygamy, we are still allowed to believe in prophets, apostles and revelation.
                          "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

                            No, he wouldn't be. He was a prophet.

                                So is today's tea prohibition the 1880's version of polygamy?
