      I'm sure she's too busy counting the brown kids to hear clearly erroneous doctrines like "Love of God and of all man"

        Ugh - such a disgusting human being. I'm sad I even know who that bitch is.

        I didn't see this talk, but I'm familiar enough with the subject matter to have found this Facebook meme funny:

        As that Mormonleaks video of Elder Gong presenting to the Q12 showed, brother Oaks is very interested in the Gay agenda.

          Yes but then again, there was this gem of a talk:

          Apostle George F. Richards ( 1861 - 1950 ):

          The Negro is an unfortunate man. He has been given a black skin. But that is as nothing compared with that greater handicap that he is not permitted to receive the Priesthood and the ordinances of the temple, necessary to prepare men and women to enter into and enjoy a fullness of glory in the celestial kingdom [i.e., godhood].

          Apostle George F. Richards, Conference Report, April 1939, p. 58
          And of course, this wonderful perspective (dripping with sarcasm),

          Apostle Bruce R. McConkie (1915-1985):

          Negroes in this life are denied the priesthood; under no circumstances can they hold this delegation of authority from the Almighty. The gospel message of salvation is not carried affirmatively to them.... Negroes are not equal with other races where the receipt of certain spiritual blessings are concerned...

          Apostle Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, p. 477, 1958

          "Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

          Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

            He took a swipe at some of the arguments against the Book of Mormon and those that would rather believe that Joseph was a fraud/creative/evil/genius, verses a prophet who translated the Book of Mormon.
            "They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.

            Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

              .
              So true. I'm disappointed in my curiosity as to her response to that talk in particular.
