All of Minnesota (where I live) will be having a regional broadcast from SLC this upcoming Sunday. I was talking to my cousin in Colorado and they are also have a regional broadcast from SLC. What are these broadcasts about, and how wide spread are they?

I got 52% liberal and 48% conservative...thats probably not too far off. I'm fairly moderate, but if I had to choose for my self, I'd say its more like 65-70% Conservative and 30-35% liberal

There are at least 12,000 saints living within mainland China (this does not include Hong Kong), and there are about 25,000 Saints in Hong Kong. So the Church definitely has a presence in China. But based off of your last 2 sentences, then yes I would agree that the church has a presence in pretty much every country. I agree....................................................................^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I think that either the world is going to escalate quickly, soon; or it is going to continue to slowly escalate, if you know what I mean.

As of right now the church does not have a presence in 33 countries. That is not including countries like Afghanistan, that only have 1 branch. So its a bit more than a dozen. And the majority of those countries are Islam dominated and lacking very much religious freedom. But some of those countries do have a few members in them, just not any congregations. So if you take those countries out, it's probably closer to a dozen.

Even in my relatively short lifetime I've seen the world falling into evil more and more

I think so too. I'm not old, but I also think it is coming soon.

I know that there is, of course, no official knowledge of exactly when the Second Coming is going to happen, and I know that everyone has differing opinions on this: do you think that the Second Coming will happen in your lifetime?

As someone who is part of the younger generation and does not remember 9/11, I do not think this is a watershed event. Sadly, our generation is used to this. Its sad but we talk at school and church, and its not a surprise at all to most of us in the younger generation that there is an armed Jihadist cell that is attacking us on US soil...is that what you are saying is the watershed event? Because TBH this isn't that big of a deal to us. I mean of course the fact that so many innocent lives were lost is a big deal...but this is something that doesn't surprise us. It's literally just another day in this world.

Hey all, I just read about how BYU has the policy that if any LDS member leaves the faith while at the school they have violated the Honor Code and will be expelled? Can anyone explain this to me? Thank you!

I've just been thinking/wondering, what about all the dead who live long ago, before any records of them could be possible? How do we do baptisms for the dead for them?
