Will they convene a council to re-examine the policies and agencies that have resulted in the church becoming what it is today, or will they double down and get even more calcified in their hard-line tactics and doctrines?

Doesn't your question suggest that ChurchCo leaders are in-touch, engaged with the events that the effect the rank & file?

I see no evidence of that.

Instead, they tear down the Deseret Gym (something members could actually get some benefit from!) to build a Great & Spacious Building aka Conference Center (did they attach an individual's name in the title like many other churchco buildings, esp. on YBU campus)?

What recent events cost them any money?

Will TSCC "change"?

No. It will always wear its soiled diaper.

They have a lot of mulah.

They don't need to change. LDS Corp will live on as a mega real estate conglomerate.

No. Religion is the last place that would evaluate the consequences of telling a big lie that has no evidence.

They depend on the same obedience to authority mindset.

Their main concern is hoping people don't see the similarities.

When history is on your side, "staying the course" is a real big temptation.

But Dr. Prophet, M.D. has shown himself to believe in 'game-changing', what with the word 'mormon' having been deemed to be of the devil.

So I want to believe that Dr. Prophet can make a couple more juicy changes that will show that ghawd is not the marketing genius that the missionary program says he is.

Elder Bowler, my very first mission companion and a shoe-in to rise from AP to Apostle (he would have had my vote) was called home to Jesus 2-1/2 years after the mission because ghawd needed him on the other side.

Rusty Prophet, MD, is left here on earth puttering around 51 years more than Elder Bowler...

I double-damn guarantee you that Elder Bowler would have done much, much better.

Ghawd, the 5th grade dropout, continues to depress.

Hard to believe Rusty isn't dead, though we don't hear a lot from him lately.

Does Rusty remind anyone else of that tall old guy Muppet, Waldorf?

I would expect most of the Q15 to be holed up due to the mortal risk of COVID infection.

Not to me. More of a Statler.

I always see the emperor from star wars.

Calcification is the order of the day. Grin and bear it

LAST Days
Bad people
God's will

They don't take America's pulse, offer analysis, share the plate, or even have a think tank.

Mormonism isn't the answer-
Doesn't have the answers-
Doesn't care《○●○》 and
Doesn't know what to do.
In ANY situation ♤♡◇♧
Mormonism is the question!
It's more like a riddle.
An incomplete puzzle.
A wobbling top.
A confused odor.
A headless snake.

The gay old baldies are aloof.
They haven't even got a tooth.

Mormonism isn't prepared for solving situations, and in fact, besides usually creating them, wants the [LDS, and the world-at-large] People Of The Day to solve its problems. Mormonism is dead. It DOESN'T have a pulse.

It would have to take a shot in the dark, like it always has... wink wink ● wank wank ● (just so it could get away with it).

Shot In The Dark ☆ Ozzy Osbourne ☆
