Re: General Conference

You're money is better spent on an NPR pledge drive in most cases. I got to go GC in Columbus, OH in 2006 for my birthday. It's one of those things that I could say I've been to. All the pimping going during the Foreign Missions service made me uncomfortable. Parading the mssionaries to the front like orphan children begging for someone to partner with them. It was a very difficult service to sit through.

It's all about the "show" for the most part and it's sickening. Don't get me started on all the time spent on begging for money before they even start church!
