You want to stay kind. How about some version of, “Thank you for your concern. I am so glad that the church works for you and that you have found happiness there. I am pleased that it brings you joy. One of the things I appreciate about the church is that we allow all to worship how, what, or where they may. I have found joy and peace where I am now. Please respect that. If anything ch

I get what you are saying but you are overthinking it. Why not just say we baptized 332,677 people this year. No one is going to know the difference. They can make up and say whatever they want since they provide no evidence of their claims. What evidence can be deduced (butts in seats in local congregations) numbers of wards and stakes in various areas, all seem to indicate that their nu

I bet that if they started charging church leaders with felonious accessory after the fact and started threatening senior church leaders with significant jail time and felony convictions for failing to act in these circumstances that things would change post haste!

DING DING DING! This is one of the biggest problems facing the church and is one that not a lot of people are talking about. The church is all about the church. If the church was about love, charity, kindness, helping members meet real world problems, being welcoming, worshiping Jesus, etc. then people would more readily overlook the fact that it is demonstrably a con.

I had a companion that told me they were ok if they died on their mission. I let them know that if they didn't learn to leave me the hell alone I would give them an immediate opportunity to make good on their claim. That pretty quickly upended that crap.

The average male lives to be 78 in the United States. Sure, some live a few more years, and some a bit less...but 78 more or less. 2 years represents about 3% of that time. It represents more than 10% of the time that you have already lived. There are things that you will have to do in life. Things that are unavoidable. This isn't one of them. I served a mission.

Beards are prohibited Tattoos are OK Personally, I don't have a problem with either one, but it seems like if Brother Jones was to show up at the local ward with a beard no one would really say much (unless he was on the bishoprick), But if he showed up with a new tattoo there would be a lot more tongue wagging....so why is it the exact opposite at BYU.
