Re: Elder Hamilton at BYU - replace "the church" with the name of the Savior
I think this says it best.
“Prophets don’t come from the religious elite. They emerge from the margins, condemn the religious elite, and return to the margins when their job is done. Their title doesn’t make their words prophetic. Their words make their prophetic role uncomfortably clear. What prophets say is usually received with the fear and fury of the privileged, and relief from the underprivileged.” Gina Colvin
“I’ll know when Russell Nelson is being a prophet. He’ll be a prophet when he liquidates the church’s assets in order to take care of the poor and needy. He’ll be a prophet when he collapses the religious hierarchy; when he quits his job and heads to the margins from where he’ll speak to the center about its corruptions. He’ll be a prophet for the ages when he then disappears from public view without having taken a cent for his troubles.” Gina Colvin

Most likely because each diocese is considered an individual entity. Those guys were smart. When one church goes down, they can't sue the Vatican.

So, it is a flawed stuff then. Vatican city is worth more than 100B BTW alone. Ever been there? More than all the LDS malls in one city let alone all the cathedrals........ written by Hunter Biden I guess.Reluctant Watchman wrote: ↑January 31st, 2023, 10:53 amNope, the LDS corp.TheDuke wrote: ↑January 31st, 2023, 10:47 amRoman Catholic?Reluctant Watchman wrote: ↑January 30th, 2023, 1:58 pm The "savior" owns and operates the wealthiest religion in the world.

BTW, if you had chosen to click the link, the Vatican is only slated at $33B.
As a sidenote, members have no idea about the capital holdings of the LDS corp. They have massive land and real estate holdings.

So ...I don't like criticizing this guy relentlessly, but I can't pass up a chance for sarcasm with this headline...
Because this headline:. "LDS church employees can now get birth control coverage"
Becomes this..."Jesus Christ's employees can now get birth control coverage"

And Jesus assured us that the vaccines were proven to be safe and effective.
And Jesus said that we can only win this war by vaccinating a high percentage of the population.
Now some have died and many are sick, but Jesus isn't saying anything.
Jesus likes to have scripted face-to-face meetings with the youth.
Jesus has $100 billion in the stock market, and more under his hat.

I'm really sure it's more than a mere 100 billion. Was it you or someone else who pointed out they own trillions (especially if you count their assets)?Reluctant Watchman wrote: ↑January 31st, 2023, 10:53 amNope, the LDS corp.TheDuke wrote: ↑January 31st, 2023, 10:47 amRoman Catholic?Reluctant Watchman wrote: ↑January 30th, 2023, 1:58 pm The "savior" owns and operates the wealthiest religion in the world.
