so even the few people who remember pre-kimball mormonism will be immersed in hippie jesus
hmm
They'll have to make a discord server.
you have a point there
...
You hadn't already thought of this?
you don't even know what we're talking about
I think I know more about it than you, just by reading it here.
hush honey, let the big boys talk
@devolved if I was actual satan and my goal was to destroy the church I couldn't think of a single better move
At any rate, the principle of hierarchical dissolution having negative effects for both tiers is clear.
combining HP and EQ is like assassination of the religion
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.
yeah well this shit is so blatant I'm willing to set that aside
i don't fully understand how this new system will work
hint: it won't
will it be ward-based
yeah
the high priest quorum was stake-based right
it was just a second EQ almost
it's just older guys who were set apart as high priests (this is an actual priesthood rank), and had a separate quorum
it literally is a different rank in the priesthood
Are high prests higher or lower than grand wizards?
but the quorum was for the whole stake right
as opposed to the elders quorum which is just for the ward
in my understanding it was ward to ward
ok
the ones I went to were ward
it's just like how young men go to a different meeting
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.
so they would meet by ward but the stake president was in charge
got it
yeah
a possible positive benefit would be to have the older guys dropping some knowledge to the young men
since most of the young men are pretty ignorant
how is the LDS church not exactly on a trajectory that terminates at nondenominational/unitarian protestantism
I am horrified how few people in the quorum know anything
a guy said to me that he "never had any interest in deep doctrine, I just kinda show up lol," and I asked him, "what if 'deep doctrine' knowledge changed your understanding of what you actually have to DO to get into heaven?" and he just looked like he never thought of it before
Is this the mormon Vatican II?
these people are so mentally lazy they basically deserve it
