it's good for the elders

2018-04-01 04:19:38 UTC  

maybe not so good for the high priests

2018-04-01 04:19:55 UTC  

yeah and they are the ones who actually know shit

2018-04-01 04:19:58 UTC  

and have studied shit

2018-04-01 04:19:58 UTC  

Even when devolved is correct, he's wrong.

2018-04-01 04:20:18 UTC  

they are making sure the people who actually know shit do not have a separate space to discuss it

2018-04-01 04:20:32 UTC  

so even the few people who remember pre-kimball mormonism will be immersed in hippie jesus

2018-04-01 04:20:38 UTC  

hmm

2018-04-01 04:20:39 UTC  

They'll have to make a discord server.

2018-04-01 04:20:46 UTC  

you have a point there

2018-04-01 04:20:51 UTC  

...

2018-04-01 04:20:58 UTC  

You hadn't already thought of this?

2018-04-01 04:21:00 UTC  

you don't even know what we're talking about

2018-04-01 04:21:21 UTC  

I think I know more about it than you, just by reading it here.

2018-04-01 04:21:55 UTC  

hush honey, let the big boys talk

2018-04-01 04:22:13 UTC  

@devolved if I was actual satan and my goal was to destroy the church I couldn't think of a single better move

2018-04-01 04:22:16 UTC  

At any rate, the principle of hierarchical dissolution having negative effects for both tiers is clear.

2018-04-01 04:22:27 UTC  

combining HP and EQ is like assassination of the religion

2018-04-01 04:23:20 UTC  

I like how you constantly think devolved is stupid and has a retardedly incorrect view of Mormonism yet now act like you care about what he thinks.

2018-04-01 04:23:42 UTC  

yeah well this shit is so blatant I'm willing to set that aside

2018-04-01 04:23:45 UTC  

i don't fully understand how this new system will work

2018-04-01 04:23:50 UTC  

hint: it won't

2018-04-01 04:23:50 UTC  

will it be ward-based

2018-04-01 04:23:52 UTC  

yeah

2018-04-01 04:24:02 UTC  

the high priest quorum was stake-based right

2018-04-01 04:24:11 UTC  

it was just a second EQ almost

2018-04-01 04:24:14 UTC  

I attended it before

2018-04-01 04:24:27 UTC  

it's just older guys who were set apart as high priests (this is an actual priesthood rank), and had a separate quorum

2018-04-01 04:24:34 UTC  

it literally is a different rank in the priesthood

2018-04-01 04:24:37 UTC  

Are high prests higher or lower than grand wizards?

2018-04-01 04:24:41 UTC  

but the quorum was for the whole stake right

2018-04-01 04:24:52 UTC  

as opposed to the elders quorum which is just for the ward

2018-04-01 04:24:52 UTC  

in my understanding it was ward to ward

2018-04-01 04:24:54 UTC  

ok

2018-04-01 04:25:06 UTC  

the ones I went to were ward

2018-04-01 04:25:13 UTC  

it's just like how young men go to a different meeting

2018-04-01 04:25:20 UTC  

In December 1975 the First Presidency clarified that ward high priests groups function as part of the stake high priests quorum, with the stake president serving as president of the quorum and his counselors in the stake presidency serving as counselors in the quorum. Ward high priests group leaders function under the direction of the stake president.

2018-04-01 04:25:34 UTC  

so they would meet by ward but the stake president was in charge

2018-04-01 04:25:36 UTC  

got it

2018-04-01 04:25:56 UTC  

yeah

2018-04-01 04:26:19 UTC  

a possible positive benefit would be to have the older guys dropping some knowledge to the young men
