Wow, so sorry dung, essie, closer and to all the others hurt by such horrible insensitive remarks.
It's obvious by their actions and comments that a great deal of these men have been appointed not because of having shown christ like spirits, but because they have shown that they could jump through all the organizational hoops.
We had one older brother in our hall up in NY, who was a real zinger. Upon hearing about the upcoming nuptials of one pioneer sister in the hall, I heard him remark "Well soon we aren't going to have ANY virgins left at our hall!" yikes! This is the same brother who got into trouble for quoting (I'm not sure who? da judge perhaps?) At the beginning of one of his talks saying "The clergy are a bunch of God Damn Bastards!" Well needless to say it DID get everyones attentions that day...hehehehe. Ah, the good old days LOL
