I haven't been following since monson died. What the heck has been happening for the last two years? Scared of the word Mormon was the latest thing I heard. Figured they would go out of business after that kind of revelation.

They all are, 'cause they are all crooks, telling lies to promote the same hoax cult. I have known a few GA's personally. One was a relative, and I loved him. The other was Henry Eyring, when he was bishop of my singles ward, and he seemed like a good person.

Hinckley and Nelson are above the rest, for their smarmy, snake-oil peddling vibes.

Oh--LOL--I just read Wally Prince's description of Hinckley! That's It!!!!!!

Hinckley wins!

Bednar is short.

He can't stand people who are taller than him and will try to destroy them spiritually.

You have my vote.

https://friendlyatheist.patheos.com/2016/02/29/what-a-mormon-leader-really-meant-when-he-said-there-are-no-homosexual-members-of-the-church/

“First, I want to change the question,” Bednar replied. “There are no homosexual members of the church. We are not defined by sexual attraction. We are not defined by sexual behavior. We are sons and daughters of God. And all of us have different challenges in the flesh.”

So there are no "labels" in the church? Isn't "worthy" a label? Isn't saying their are no homosexuals akin to saying there are no dark skinned people in the church according to this logic?

Ridiculous. Try saying this - There are no heterosexual members of the church. We are not defined by sexual attraction. We are not defined by sexual behavior.

But they are defined by marital status, temple worthiness status, tithe paying status, ordinances performed status etc.

Well, there's a video of him strong arming a little boy.

I think he's a real tool.

Think of all the children he's messed up. Think of him when you think of a child being interviewed and introduced to the word masturbation.

In my humble opinion he is the re-incarnation of Reichspropagandaminister Josef Goebbels.

I agree with those giving Bednar the dubious honor. Some of the others have redeemed themselves in one way or another; in some cases the redemption was only to a member of my own family - not enough to make up for the ill accomplished on a regular basis in pepetuating the giant myth, but enough to get them off my personal $h!t list. I cannot, off the top of my head, come up with any single redemptive act or quality I would associate with Bednar.

I haven't met any of them, but in the past I would have thought Holland. However, after learning more about him from people who had interactions with him before he became a GA, I'm more inclined to think that being an apostle made Holland (who sounds like he was a genuinely nice guy before being called) a GA. I've never heard anyone having an interaction with Bednar - either before or after he was called - where they walked away thinking he was anything other than a gigantic douche-canoe.

He is worse than trash.
I would notice trash.

I had already seen the video of him abusing that boy, and making him CRY. Had the other members seen it, 10% of them would have said, "that's wrong", while the other 90% would still say, what a guy. If the Saints knew what they thought they knew, the whole audience would have been sick, disgusted, and repulsed.

He came to a steak center a few years ago - where my TBM family resides - and many people in the crowd stood up. I didn't, and neither did my folks nearby. I asked why they didn't, or, the others did. They said it was for a higher authority (like me, I suppose, though they aren't smart enough to recognize that), and he was simply an a post hole. I thought, what a bunch of dummies, standing for that!

He droned on and on about NOT HAVING TIME to get his hands shaken and shit shat after the disservice, but had "a plain to catch" [I wonder who threw it].

He was so DISRESPECTFUL, disingenuous, and unsanctimonious and simply NOT PRESENT, while he talked about *hi*, and then ate it... right there in front of everybody. Talked about the piece of crap he is and how he can't get out of the trap. Then repeated, while I'll pair-o-phrase, "I'VE GOT TO GO, you Saints are nothing, beat off". Just talked about himself. What a looser. He's about the lowest I've ever seen a person, claiming to be Mormon. Creepy, cunning, shifty, and two-faced, like most LDS high-ups.

Holy cow! I think I was there. Unless he uses the same speech at every dang place he visits. He said something about the big bang being fake too. I remember him saying (about the church) "it's true. All of it." What a load of crap.

He apparently is a comedian.

"Sister Bednar spoke before him and she called a 6 year old little girl to come up to the podium. She turned to Elder Bednar and said "Can you help me get her on this table?" She then had the little girl stand on the table as she talked about how much we have to learn from children. Elder Bednar got up to speak and he said "My name is Elder Bednar and my job is to travel the world and help my wife with her visual aids." "

But seriously, the gushing hero worship is just too much.

"You guys, ELDER BEDNAR IS SO COOL!!!! He is seriously one of the coolest people I have ever met. And his wife is AMAZING!! The whole thing was amazing. They are so real and personable. They make jokes and talk like us and think like us, except like 1000 times better. And the Spirit is so strong! They just have this light and way of saying things and the Spirit can just teach you everything that you need to know."

Why LDS don't like telling the truth. They simply don't have it.

I haven't been following the big 15 for years now, but I think Bednar is one of the top candidates for that title.

Cant think of a better profit than bednar to thin the ranks of mormonism with his arrogance and pride.

Actually, if Bednar isn't the douchiest apostle, it's quite worrying: what could be douchier than THAT?

Vote for Oaks here. He was president at BYU when they were hooking gay men up to be electric shocked.
