FairMormon conference


Recommended Posts

Well, day one was okay. Nothing mind blowing. I enjoyed a few of the presentations quite a bit and was bored with others. The best was a presentation on polygamy and the worst* was a Methodist preacher who presented Biblical "evidence" that the Holy Spirit and Mother in Heaven were one and the same.

 

My favorites tend to be those that are centered in faith.

 

* I should, fairly, qualify this as, "least enjoyable" for me.

Day 2. Several more good talks (some really good). But I must admit, overall I come away feeling somewhat disenchanted if not downright discouraged. I'd say the presentations could be split into 3 groups. Faith promoting. Faith neutral. And apostate in disguise. And I'd put a good third to half of the presentations into this last category. Add to this the clearly "progressive" tone of a lot of the questions in the question-and-answer parts, and I just felt like this supposed vestige of conservative faithful-ism is developing some serious cracks in it's foundation. This is disheartening to me in the extreme.

 

The few solid, faith-promoting talks were great though! And several of the "neutral" talks were quite interesting. One of the most interesting had some "apostate in disguise"-ness to it though...but very, very interesting otherwise.
