There have been a number of discussions in my ward about the opposing votes at the last several general conferences and stake conferences. One of the members of our Elder's Quorum Presidency was speaking in sacrament meeting and made a comment that those who do not sustain the leaders should be roughed up and physically thrown from the meeting. The bishop looked disturbed by this comment (thankfully) but the two counselors seemed to find the thought amusing. There has been a gradual shift toward a more primitive view of "living the gospel." Even with the loss of liberal and moderate TBMs, I had not expected such a shift was underway. Knowing this "gentleman", I would fully expect him to act on his threats of physical violence.
As if we did not need any more evidence that Mormonism is a cult and devoid of any teachings that might be mistaken as Christian, we have church leaders bearing testimony that they are ready to physically abuse anyone who openly questions. TSCC is in a worse position than the Titanic. At least the Titanic had a rudder and a destination in mind. TSCC has become rudderless, goalless, and is sailing aimlessly. Other than an aim to maximize the number of members and dollars for no other purpose than more members and dollars, TSCC no longer seems to have a mission statement. "Men are that they might pay tithing."
