Desperately trying to plug another hole in the hull. They might as well open conference with the hymn "Nearer My God To Thee."

Damage control. The church is one big PR machine. It's clearly not run by God. It's run by men who continue to amend and change the church and then tiptoe through the web of questions. Is it a policy change? Or is it doctrinal change? Is it God or men making these changes? Its kind of messy isn't it.

God needs to get his act together. He keeps messing up, making the humans look bad.

I remember the church bitterly defending this policy four years ago. Yes, first it was stated as policy and then it was publicly defended as divine revelation.

So now it's revelation that the church got it wrong. Boy, the Mormon gawd is dumb.

Remember Nelson very carefully described the agonizing and determined process that all 15 top leaders endured to have the sacred experience of knowing and then sustaining the will of the lord.

Meaning all 15 of them cocked it up.

Thank goodness mormon ghawd would never let them lead the saints astray!

Which begs the question, why then instruct the saints that if they are given incorrect instructions (which rule A says cannot happen) rule B says to follow the incorrect instructions?
