I think this is the main reason LDS Corp cancelled their auxiliary meetings prior to conference. I doubt that they will announce it or even admit to it, but it wouldn't surprise me if they stopped meeting for awhile. They fear death. Even GBH hanged on as long as he could.

It's a sobering thought that these cranky hatemongers could go very quickly.

at the care center died in Washington. I'm 62 and I keep thinking no way am I old enough to be called elderly!

That would be a huge concern I would assume to the 15. GC isn't that far off. I wonder what they'll do if the cases in Utah start to really increase.

I have taken note how the leaders of the lds church fear death. I've talked about my SP uncle who fought death. He was in a nursing home for quite a while. I thought that was how all elderly died as it seemed it was that way around here. Then my parents died. My mother spent a few days in a nursing home after going septic and being hospitalized, but then she died there eating dinner in her bed. And then my dad died in bed at home. Neither feared death. The thing my mother feared was leaving my disabled brother behind. I didn't know you could go like my parents did as in Utah everyone seems to hang on and hang on especially the lds leaders. They do everything they can to not die.

Dream on.

Corona virus could be good news for pension fund managers.

Not if the fund is heavy into old folks' warehouses. The coronavirus could make that a dying business.

If one of them actually came down with it and died that would put paid to there being zero power in the priesthood and power of prayer. JMHO

I suddenly had this vision of the lot of them sitting in a place, surrounded by fire, like the Pope during the plague.

To be honest, as a TBM, I sometimes worried what would happen if The Priesthood were lost because the GAs died suddenly. My, how I’ve fallen! The limp Boner

Then it would be restored to Donald Trump by Larry, Curly, and Moe.
