Well said David.

I never thought his law would ever be applied on my blog but that’s the internet for you.

Good for Tamara, for pointing out that the emperor has no clothes. L.D.S. Inc. even had the Nazi flag flying at ward houses in Germany during the war. This poor excuse for a church expects its masses to tow the line, while the upper crust does what it wants, as it laugh all the way to the bank on the poor suckers’ tithing money. Condos and malls are the latest projects, after throwing a pittance at the poor, for PR sake, of course.

A rather benign sounding phrase “…with stake presidencies observing the vote of the congregations”, but–to be certain–this has a rather unusual implication:
Like, why are those leaders ‘observing’ the vote of the people, if it was an individual thing, whether people–as individuals–pledged their support for this or that leader, or not!?!
This reminds me of the Brown Shirts (and, yes, it doesn’t fall on deaf ears and eyes that yours are the “White Shirts”) who were sent out, by Hitler, in Germany, in the 1930s, to ‘observe’ the actions of the people: all done for ‘their’ supreme leader, as well.
If people vote against supporting Tom Monson, because he drank caffeinated Pepsi by the truckload, who are ‘you’ to take issue with that?
(P.S: On good authority, I am aware that there was a time when many mormon branches of the church would not give a temple recommend to anyone drinking coke-pepsi. I guess Monson would be kept out of the upper chambers of the temple, on that very same basis. Or would he?)
Don’t you just love the double-standard hypocrisy?
I do.
