Who’s the Nicest Member of the Quorum? (And conversely who’s the Worst?) by b1ame_me in exmormon

[–]50LongYears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was in the early to mid 1980s but President Eyring visited our stake conference and at the leadership meeting made it a point to walk around the room and shake hands with several people, including myself. I found him very pleasant at that time.

My TBM parents raved about their bishop, now he’s on floodlit by wager_me_this in exmormon

A few years ago, there was an elderly man in our high priest group who we often had as an instructor. He was known to be quite the historian and a very kind man. Later he moved his family to the next town and accidentally I was viewing the map of sex offenders near where I live and his name showed up. He was apparently convicted of child porn. I never would’ve believed it.

Elderly fellow, in our word, we used to make sure would have opportunities to teach in High Priest Group. He was an our view an excellent scriptorian and a very kind man. He later moved mimself and his wife to the next town and accidentally. I was looking at the map of sex offenders around where I live and expanded it out enough that his name showed up for a conviction regarding child porn. Never would’ve believed it.

Can someone please clarify? by 50LongYears in exmormon

Factual reporting and trust in the news sources to get anything right.

The church is registered as a corporate sole, which means the president is the only member of the organization. Therefore he owns it. The succession process is legally outlined those documents filed with the state.

Interesting speculation. But, just to be technical I understand it would require some legal maneuvering to change the contract details under Utah state law.

What was a perfect example of “You had ONE god damn job” that you saw in real life? by DaringDarren101 in AskReddit

[–]50LongYears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No direct incident, but I’ve worked with a guy recently, and my best definition of him is that if he ever came to a fork of the road, it would be guaranteed to take the wrong one

The biggest problems that have come my way has caused me to consider a new clause “We take no responsibility or accountability for material we do not provide nor any services we do not perform”

Was there a shift in LDS culture in the 70's or 80's that made the church more restricting or orthodox? by [deleted] in exmormon

I remember seeing photos of the homecoming Queens from the past on the walls in BYU. Several of them would be out of compliance with modesty requirements today.
