The Lord's words to the General Authorities of the church.

3 For of him unto whom much is given much is required;
and he who sins against the greater light shall receive the greater condemnation.

I remember a talk about avoiding sarcasm. My wife gave me the elbow check. I looked at her and responded about just how often I have ever used sarcasm. Of course that being a sarcastic remark. At first I saw this as sarcasm and then I realized what is it they will say for General Conference not what they won't say.

Why can't they announce shell companies the same way they announce temples?

We may hear that we need to repent, but in the context of:

- Be worthy of a temple reccomend
- Wear the temple garment regularly
- Be better "ministers"
- Stay on the covenant path
- Stop reading non-approved "faith destroying" material
- Stop listening to "revelation" that is different than what leaders have said

We won't hear. "Supporting the U.N. was wrong" "Giving funds to the NAACP was wrong".

Probably won't hear:

Powerful testimony of the Book of Mormon
Powerful testimony of Joseph Smith
Unveiling of heavenly mysteries
Expounding on scripture
Condemnation of secret combinations (except for those right wing Christian nationalists)
Self reflection about the church's policy and behavior during last 3 years
A single word about EPA, the SEC, or tax shelters in Australia and Canada

I don't think we need testimonies of Joseph Smith – we've seen many of those – we need a more honest and thorough appraisal of what he actually taught.

What is the point in a Restoration if the church goes back into the very territory that Joseph Smith himself sought to escape? What we have now is an Animal Farm situation.

Be self sufficient in this time of uncertainty. Prepare for instability.

I think we all know the answer to that, Niemand. Shell companies are very sacred. Mysteries not meant for peasants.

What you DEFINITELY WON'T hear:

1.We did lead you astray by urging the deadly "Godsend".

2. We did use deception to hide how much we had stockpiled away in EPA.

DEFINITELY.

Neither will you ever hear them say that - they were wrong - or even that they just made a mistake,
and even less will you ever hear - that they were deceived. - which actually, could even be part of the truth.
W.H.O. knows.

Thought you'd get a mention of those kinky frats in? Can you imagine a GA discussing his Sigma Chi or Skull & Bones meetings?


If DFU can make a conference career out of talking about aeroplanes... there must be *some* anecdotal value about being forced to drink bodily fluids out of a skull in a candle lit crypt, while being spanked simultaneously by a man in black robes... just so you could get that nice job after you left university.

Maybe not what Auntie Jean wants or expects to hear in General Conference... but closer to reality than she realises.

What you won't hear in Conference, are the true stories of those that have been abused
by those who they trusted.

I could not agree more. They should make a FULL accounting at least once during the weekend, where they announce to the world exactly what their investments are, who they go to, how much profits are, who on the Q15 are making millions off the investments etc. They should also be totally forthcoming on how much they have donated to BLM, LGBTQLMAO, NAACP and other radical militant anti groups.

I've heard many talks on repentance and going and sinning no more various times in Conference.

The funny thing is, you don't have to specifically use the words "repent" and "sin no more" to tell people to repent and to sin no more.

President Hinckley had an adage that he would repeat in many conferences: Everyone should leave here better than they were when they came. That is a method of saying "go and sin no more."

President Nelson, when still an Apostle, had an excellent talk on repentance, in which he broke down the word for repentance in Greek and then showed that in a true repentance, even our very BREATH must change.

they should, but I don't think you'll ever see or hear that coming from them.

they can parrot each other, and give nice talks - on any subject,
but unfortunately, Nelson doesn't see the need to himself. repent.
