I'm speachless

Well I suppose the church always has been pro-slavery, nice to see it's not restricted only to those of darker skin any more.

I am exed, and I just signed on as a non-member.

Obviously, their system isn't linked to the LDS membership roll.

Vineyards make me think of wine, which doesn't really go with my image of the LDS church.

Really? Volunteer? I know translating church documents used to be a paid job, I personally know couple people who did that to help with their income.

I see it as another money saving attempt ... why pay someone with experience and qualifications to do a reliable work when there are plenty of those who would be thrilled to do it just so they can feel important and brag to others how they translate and edit for church.

Making sure nothing has been changed or altered before it's sent out into the world????

Am I the only one thinking "Ironic" right now?

I want in - I want to translate the Ensign to Klingon.

Ah yes .. yet more mormon lingo to lure the suckers.

WOW ! So many "feel good" buzz words !

Looks like professional ad men at work. Very slick.

And I love this line : "The Mormon Messages Channel on YouTube is one example of where this material might be used. "

Sure, I'll translate that stuff. Where do I get my stone and hat?

Do they seriously think a non-member would want to waste their time with this sh*t?

Someone's been breathing their own farts in for way too long.

So basically they are having members artificially tweek Google local LDS chapel reviews, boost YouTube numbers and make their videos look more popular and do random activities to make Mormonism look more popular and show up more readily to non-LDS people. Serve the Lord by manipulating the media. There is something seriously wrong with these people.

Exactly.

How come "service" is always highly profitable to LD$ Inc. ?

You remember Bednar telling everyone to repent and pay their tithing? The cult is going down. They know they can't sustain their spending without the money coming in. Just another sign that they are failing.

Sounds like they're collecting addresses for the mishies and members to come around and bug those people.

What better way to find new converts than among those who are already willing to volunteer?

Reminds me of those "suckers lists" at fairs and other events, where people are invited to sign up for a prize - but in reality they wind up as targets for marketers.
