I am, admittedly, the worst at organizing especially good information on Mormonism that comes to me from dozens of sources. So, I'm back again, asking for another piece of information that I know I read within the last year. It was a piece that had been lifted from the written instructions given or sent to Mission Presidents that, in part, told the Pres. what NOT to talk about or to report on t

Thanks to everyone who sent info. Much appreciated. I have another question about "perks", but will start another thread for that.

I have someone asking where the confirmation is that GA's receive very HEALTHY compensation, in addition to RE holdings, etc. The one link I had about it is no longer working. Can anyone point me to the best place to find it -- with at least some documentation for the info there?

Peggy seems to vacillate between being critical of exmos and giving space for some of our gripes. I will definately be letting the press know that Hans is coming. In fact, maybe we can even set up a press "event" for him -- he's going to be here longer than the 3 days of the Conference. And I will have to let her know way ahead. I hope she treats it as a journalist should.

Carol -- thank you for topping this again. The way to do this just escapes me. I tried to do it yesterday and failed. If you want to take the time, write me privately with the "how to". sue97062@aol.com

The Exmormon Foundation is happy to announce that the dates for this year's Conference are October 9-11, 2015.

Some of you have no doubt listened to the interview he did for Mormon Stories. He is the highest known church leader to express his d

Yesterday I received a subscription advertisement from the magazine Free Inquiry (had let my subscription lapse). I laughed out loud when I read the following in large letters at the beginning of the flyer: "Some religions don't want you drinking coffee. Most religions don't want you reading "Free Inquiry". How about I pop for the coffee while you read". Don't let a

Funny. Yes, I'm sure it's superior to the live stream. I think one has to be REALLY dedicated to watch the whole Conference on live stream.

I was remiss in not thanking Will Johnson for all the work he does on these. There is a lot of time spent editing and reworking the audio so they are as good as we can get them! Thank you Will!!

This will be the last reminder about deadlines for registrations that include dinner at the Conference. Any registration by mail that includes dinner needs to reach our Treasurer by Monday, the 6th. If they arrive later than that, we cannot guarantee you will get a dinner. If you need that address, contact me immediately at sue97062@aol.com. To those registering online, we will also need y

Just a quick reminder that it's two and half weeks till the start of the Conference. If you are mailing your check, it must arrive by Monday, the 6th. If you can only come for part of the Conference, contact Kath Jones to work that out at: kathjones64@gmail.com If you still need a hotel room, you will need to go through me to get our discount -- if there are rooms in the hotel still available

If any of you are planning to send a check for your registration to the Conference, we wanted to remind you that the check needs to be written to The Exmormon Foundation, and NOT to our Treasurer. This makes it much more simple to get the deposits into the bank. Those checks need to reach the Treasurer by Monday, October 6th, as I have to give a dinner count to the hotel the next day. If they

And I hope you do. I've only had one person ini 12 years tell me they wish they hadn't come. Oh, yes -- there was one more who left early for a reason I can't remember now. :-) But I do hear dozens of comments every year from people who loved being there. It's why we spend the time and effort. It's not for us -- it's for those who need to be there!

How timely. Just this past weekend my former Bishop was FINALLY convicted of financial crime (wire fraud I think). Long and convuluted story. My ex and I knew he was dishonest 35 years ago, and his financial life was one scam after another -- all the while living high on the hog. He lost his attorney license at least 25 years ago. The judge received at least 45 letters from good LDSers, clai

We need to let everyone know about the cut-off date for reserving a room for the Exmormon Foundation Conference. At the end of the day on September 18th, our block of rooms will be released to the public. After that, you may only reserve a room by going through me -- if they are available. If you are planning to stay at the hotel, I encourage you to make those reservations now. Remember -- yo
