"any given sister speaker..." lol.

Give that girl slightly different words to say about the shape of her cinnamon buns and she definitely has a career in the 1-900 industry.

The better question is whether Russel Nelson and Sheri Dew are equal partners with Wendy. From the gossip I've heard Sheri and Wendy totally have a thing going.

I thought that was only temporary so they would not masturbate while at BYU. Later on, they are able to have a van load full of children. While emasculated, the Elders at BYU are able to delight in colorful ties and even bake pastries in their shared kitchens.

I googled Wendy Watson and now it all makes sense:

I have a question wrote:How is it a God in embryo isn’t allowed to pass the Sacrament or participate in the blessing/naming of her own child?

I’m not convinced the author of the article knows what he’s talking about.

You're missing the point entirely. No offense, but you liberal exmo types are so short-sighted. Female ordination would literally destroy the church. Like overnight, it would collapse very quickly. The whole point of the priesthood is that it creates a false sense of power and purpose. It's a motivational tool... to control the men. A tool that is needed to compel their participation. Women in the church, at least the mature ones who have a least a modicum of emotional intelligence, DO NOT WANT ordination. That does not serve their ultimate objective, which is to reprogram the men. Women like the church. Men don't. It's that simple. The affect of some tween girl's insecure and superficial feelings about passing the sacrament are quite inconsequential in the context of the big picture.

There has been reputable gossip to this effect for quite some time, coming from people who worked at Deseret with them. Everybody knows they are besties. Sheri even bought the house next to Nelson so she could be close to Wendy. That's a fact. That's just, uh, weird. That's quite a besty relationship right there. Driving across town is just too hard, I mean how often are you two hanging out? This is AFTER she married Nelson mind you. Even just putting the gossip aside, do the math. Wendy married Nelson when she was 56 and he was 82. Eighty Two!! I'm sure that's a passionate relationship they've got there. Sheri is a few years younger than Wendy. Who goes without sex for 55+ years? Maybe the two of them do, I dunno. From what I understand asexualism is a thing among lesbians. A lot of sexless lesbian relationships... so maybe the two of them have something like that going on and regard it "platonic." If she's got an emotional affair going on, the sex part is just a detail if you ask me. Wendy's heart belongs to Sheri. Heck, Sheri is probably secretly married to Nelson too, he's their ticket to the celestial kingdom. Who knows. Whatever the deal is with that little threesome, it's effing weird.

:rolleyes: More nonsense that feels so true in your gut that you decided to pull it out of your ass and share it with us?

Seriously, WaterDog, what crap. You are reaching ldsfaqs levels of obnoxious stereotyping.

Pretty much spot on. You give powerless men the illusion of power to control them and extract resources out of them. The men who run the Church and benefit from this arrangement have de-balled the very men who think they have some sort of magical power over others. The men believe they're truly something special while being complete and utter pussies. The women get a dude, generally speaking, who is willing to work the plantation. What does she care if he's a Grand Mason of the Moose Lodge? She has her kids, her house, gets to do the mom thing, and the dude is locked into a subservience to her and the Church, which ensure he bows his head and say 'yes' to the arrangement.

If he steps out of line he gets divorce raped, pays child support, she's the victim, and the community ostracizes him because he didn't live up to all the false promises the Church makes to him.

A lot of dudes flip their crap because of the pressure of living up to some Perfect Man image and become abusive assholes. Some men assimilate to the arrangement nicely. I'd say most men don't really care for it, but they don't think there are any good alternatives.

So you’ve just heard talk. No evidence to support a lesbian affair between the 2 of them. Just living next door to each other does not make them gay for one another. They could just both like the neighborhood. And, hey, bonus, they’re friends. I have a close friend who lives around the corner from me. I’m certainly not gay for her.
So you're chasing around a fly and in your world, I'm the idiot?
