Wouldn’t a simple apology and acknowledgment of wrong doing be much more effective?
Absolutely – through a personal message delivered live by a leader in General Conference, not in a press release.

personal message delivered live by a leader in General Conference, not in a press release. They’ve had 65 chances to do so, and it hasn’t happened yet.
Be interesting if we have anything to add to this thread three days from now.
I agree CWald. I will be listening to see if something is said about the ban. Don’t hold your breath. This helped me immensely: https://byustudies.byu.edu/images/webPage/pdfIcon.jpg <

It didn’t make me feel any better.
Honestly, Shawn, I’ve read volumes about the ban over multiple decades, talked with numerous people (black and white and everything else) and know what I think and how I feel about it. It would take something straight from heaven to make me feel “good” in any way about it or change my overall perspective at this point. If the info in that link helps you, wonderful – and I mean that. Just realize it won’t have the same effect for everyone else.

Yes, I suppose it won’t have the same effect on everyone. I hope it helps someone, though. It’s a tough issue.Quote:It’s a tough issue.
Amen. That it is.
