    Now instead of roll it is in the form of a ward pot luck.

    I still say it is a shame they got rid of the "curse your enemies" rolls that they had in early LDS temples.

    How many of you actually used it though? You had a chance to put Bushman on the rolls and you couldn’t be bothered to type his name.

    Type to set the bots on Wilson mode.

    Yeah, it was a thing. One roll for your loved ones, and another for your enemies. It didn't last very long. Remember that the whole temple thing started during a time of intense conflict. Part of the old ceremony was to swear an oath to avenge the martydom if you had a chance. That part didn't go away until it came to light during the Smoot hearings in 1904-07.

    The original endowment was 10 hours. Can you imagine?

    Because what we need are news stories of fathers choking their kids for choosing the one-time version over a lifetime of slavery service.
