Do you really need a "prophet?"

[_Dr. Shades]

Although the believers intimate otherwise, I highly doubt that anything significant is coming down the pike. If there were, the anti-Mormon network would already be fully informed of it.

Sort of like how, I think, it was predicted that there would be a major announcement in, what, the October 2006 General Conference? It came and went with nothing unusual (or interesting) said, as always.

So, false alarm.

Prophets keep us from the dangers of the world. Like gay marriage and oral sex!

(Still recovering from being given a handout at BYU from Spencer W. Kimball saying oral sex between married couples is an unnatural practice.)

You have got to be kidding. There was a handout? Holy Moses! I'd have been screaming to the administration, were my 18 year old daughter handed a handout on oral sex, no matter who gave it to her!

Harmony, you need counseling to overcome your naïvété. There was no handout to teenage girls.

There was a letter ....to my knowledge, there was no official pamphlet.

How would they know?

The Prophet is primarily the chief teacher of the Church and the Revelator if such revelation is needed. The Revelator portion of his job is not used as often as some would like but someone has to be there in case something big comes down....like the big something soon to arrive.

I believe if god were to send something "big", he would make provisions when the time comes and therefore has no need to keep someone in that position all the time. He surely would know when he is going to send something down.

Uh, because people on internet boards would be talking about it. Or is this some super-duper secret that only the faithful LDS know? So secret, that my wife won't even tell me?

And now, there's a thread on MAD about the imminent 2nd coming. Gotta love guys like Paul Ray and Hammer.

Like the administrative decisions made by revelation last month....and the month before....and the month before.

Wow you really are actively induced in Mormonism. |Either that or you are pretending to be.
