In lesson 12 of the Aaronic Priesthood Manual for 2012, a quotation is used approvingly from a sister who wrote an article in the New Era:
"When the prophet speaks … the debate is over."
I don't know what the full quote is--i.e., what comes between "speaks" and "the debate" because the lesson manual chose to omit it so the sentence reads as it does above.
The lesson then asks:
What did Sister Cannon mean when she said that when the prophet speaks, the debate is over?

Nothing much was in between.
Personal opinions may vary. Eternal principles never do. When the prophet speaks, sisters, the debate is over. So I urge us all to provide powerful unity as women for those things we can agree upon—family, chastity, accountability to the Lord, responsibility in the community, sharing the gospel.
"Any over-ritualized religion since the dawn of time can make its priests say yes, we know, it is rotten, and hard luck, but just do as we say, keep at the ritual, stick it out, give us your money and you'll end up with the angels in heaven for evermore."
A: It means Sister Cannon is off her nut. And this is important to us because it demonstrates that people can very publicly go off their nut.
"You lack vision, but I see a place where people get on and off the freeway. On and off, off and on all day, all night.... Tire salons, automobile dealerships and wonderful, wonderful billboards reaching as far as the eye can see. My God, it'll be beautiful." -- Judge Doom

So the men involved in putting together the official curriculum for teaching young men in the church are off their nuts?

I think I love you...
(Nevo, Jan 23) And the Melchizedek Priesthood may not have been restored until the summer of 1830, several months after the organization of the Church.

Perhaps they play with their nuts too much?
