I'm really considering doing it, but I know a bunch of other people here will too. So the question is, should I?

Sure. But put your opinion in your "findings." There will be plenty of copies of the transcripts, tell us how you FEEL about it!

The last time I attended Fast and Testimony Meeting I kept two tally lists--one for every time I heard about Joseph Smith; the other for Jesus (excepting the mandatory "in the name of Jesus Christ, amen; or the I know that Joseph Smith was a prophet" Any guesses who received the preponderance of tally marks? Joseph Smith popular Boner.

No need to guess, I'm guessing :)

Speaking of which: when was the last time anybody who actually attends church heard the word "Lamanites" mentioned?
I'm curious, as the leadership seems to have completely stopped talking about the "prime mission" of the BoM -- to let the Lamanites know they're really Hebrews!

they stopped singing 'book of mormon stories' in primary years ago, no-one could say why at the time, but with hindsight it's fairly easy to figure out.

That's what I was thinking about when I posted this:

If you wish to volunteer for this, be sure to take care of yourself. Perhaps limit yourself to 2 sessions or less. Maybe just a couple of talks from each session and not punish yourself for a full 2 hours each time. Personally I could not do it. We value your sanity.

I hope that you can watch it without it taking a spiritual / psychological toll on you.

I really wish that I didn't feel the need to keep any eye on these vultures by watching their speeches and reading their ensign messages. I only do it because I feel the need to stay abreast of TSCC attempts to drive wedges between critics like myself and their/my TBM family members. Otherwise I wouldn't go within 1000 miles of the LDS Church's toxic garbage.

I'd rather hear a report on how things are with you, exmo aspie. Things cool with your family? Are you going to school?
