The apostolic and prophetic blessings offered by those Flim-Flam Men are just as worthless as the ones left by elder Andersen to the sorry people of Puerto Rico. Worthless, fake, and pretended blessings. Instead of a hurricane these people will probably suffer a terrible famine. Mormon blessings are bad luck. Mormonism in Africa is a total joke.

Nelson and dog faced ugly Holland are total conmen. Isn't that right, elder Holland, you sorry bastard, who can't read a lick of ancient Egyptian? Disgusting, dirty, men.

Yes, your assumption is entirely correct. I am not a fan of Mormon leaders. They are a pack of wolves masquerading as humble holy men while all along they are arrogant and prideful. Those men stew in their self-righteous holier than thou attitudes. They are religious mobsters -- all of them are corrupt.

I'm a bit surprised that no one from the PR department addressed this with Pres. Nelson beforehand. Nelson may been totally sincere in his belief that a photo of the new First Presidency was a good gift. But surely someone in the Church's PR entourage there might have known - should have known - beforehand and said something like, "Um, how about if the gift is something less about the leaders of the Church and more about the Savior?"

But, then again, without the leaders in SLC and their predecessors, Mormonism really becomes just another strain of Christianity.

They wouldn't dare question the wisdom of the Lord's prophet.

This is an excellent point. I think it reinforces just how detached they are from reality they are. Its such an egotistical thing to do. They need to listen less to their self proclaimed press articles and more on how to be humble and self promoting.
