    This new-fangled Preach My Gospel manual is for coddling youngsters who can’t handle memorization.

    Oh god, the thought of having to memorize not just bits and pieces, but ENTIRE CHAPTERS of scriptures gave me incredible anxiety. I absolutely suck at memorization and need to refer to notes I’ve written out years ago (general stuff, like specific commands for server maintenance).

    this new manual includes teachings that were anti-Mormon lies 30 years ago.

    Oooooh, like what?

      They are spinning a positive angle to keep kids from being weirded out by stuff they learn online.
