What's General Conference w/o its protestors?

Post by samizdat »

IT appears that there are efforts to get General Conference Tickets for those opposed to the current direction of the Church. It appears that the group was formed just a couple of days ago.

I for one support the FP and Q12A. But there does appear to be this one group based out of American Fork that is clearly against....

What are they going to do -- stand and yell out "Heck NO" when asked to sustain the leaders? They can't say "hell" cause, ya know, they are from Utah!!!

Not too long ago there was a phrase that was O my hell which became o my heck. Most of the cussing died off with Uncle Golden.

Seems like a reasonable position, something that shouldn't terrify or surprise us:

124:144 And a commandment I give unto you, that you should fill all these offices and approve of those names which I have mentioned, or else disapprove of them at my general conference;

In fact I would say it should be encouraged for those who feel so inclined to disapprove, as the Lord recommends.

Kind of a sign of maturity that the org could handle it.

I totally agree with you, ajax. The reason I am lol at this group is because there is no chance in hell that anyone at any level or authority will take them seriously. Pretty much, they will be told, if you don't like the way things are, there's the door.

I personally am wary of organized efforts to make waves, although a group mentality makes it easier to participate. People ought to do it on their own if they feel so inclined, and not just as publicity stunts or shock value...but that's just me.
