It’s that time of year again: we review some of the talks from General Conference that caught our eye (usually because they contradict scripture).

Thanks for sifting through the crap so I didn’t have to. On missionary work and activity in the church I find my own family’s situation interesting. I have three brothers, me and the next brother went on missions and then later stopped going. The next brother basically stopped going but never went on a mission. And then the youngest not only didn’t go on a mission, but had their name removed. A lot of my cousins have stopped going, along with my dad and several aunts and uncles. My family is basically 5/8 pioneer stock, and 3/8 recent convert (some of my grandparents). My brothers and I are the 6th generation born into the church. So 7 generations total. Most of my coworkers grew up mormon as well, but only a few of the older ones actually go to church still. So yea the church is having a huge problem.
You mentioned the church has never apologized about racism in the church and that actually isn’t true as they have multiple times in the last few years even saying they disavow it and what previous leaders in the church have said about it. Check out the 2018 be one celebration remarks from the prophet and president oaks specifically and other public statements from the prophet in the last few years as well in regards to this.
