Re: If I was the PR Director of the Church…

How about PR centered on charity - sending relief to GAZA, new service opportunities - opening a hospital (instead of a temple) - opening homeless shelters - daycare in church buildings during the day so women can work .... oh wait, those are things only other Christians do, not things the Mormons ...

Re: Q12 leading the church

The Lord will never leave the Church without guidance!!!

Re: Active shooter at church in Michigan

Was there a conference talk on mormon kids who grow up to be... troubled? What is the behavior blamed on?

Why was no one at church warned? I thought the Holy Spirit protects - everyone should have gotten a funny feeling, realized what was happening, and evacuated early?
