That they are doing away completely with local churches. Every family will administer their own sacrament, have their own classes, and be able to keep their guns on them while worshiping.

Super thumbs up to you! That is what I think too! I find it tragically comical that the published Run-Hide-Fight guidelines specifically state, "Use any available materials or tools as a weapon." Seems very counter-intuitive to implement a gun ban and then give that advice. 🤔 2 MormonGator and anatess2 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bringing your gun to church is not leaving your concerns of the world behind. Can violence find us at church? Sure, but the last I checked the Lord is more concerned about how we live than how long we live. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
