bsjkki Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 As I listen to President Nelson, it seems the name of this site should change. Anyone agree? I will start my “fast” tomorrow. This site will be the only challenge for me. 2 Link to comment

why me Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) What should the board be called? Now that is a tough one. Most will search the word mormon to find a board to discuss 'Mormon' issues. Edited October 7, 2018 by why me Link to comment
mfbukowski Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 We are now the RC's. The Restored Church... of Jesus Christ, LDS. I was raised RC, (Roman Catholic) so I guess I am no longer a convert. Link to comment
carbon dioxide Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I don't think so. I get what Pres Nelson says and understand the reasoning and overall I agree. However I don't think it is necessary to divorce ourselves of the name 'Mormon" in everything. 1 Link to comment

JAHS Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) There are many variations of url names that include Jesus Christ that are not taken yet. Edited October 7, 2018 by JAHS Link to comment
JAHS Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I have had Mormonhaven.com for over 20 years now. Not sure how I am going to change that one. Link to comment
SouthernMo Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 According to President Nelson, calling this site anything ‘Mormon’ is offensive to God. Link to comment
halconero Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Latterdaysaintdialogue.org and Latter-day Saint Dialogue & Discussion Seems easy enough. 3 Link to comment
rpn Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) Yes, it is clear to me that all faithful members will do their best to change everything that can be changed. What is interesting is that if all the social media that is faithful makes the change, it will be easy to tell the critics from the fully faithful places.

For some it will be much easier to change than others. Just as with all the church sites it will take time and money and we don't have knowledge of everyone's background so we shouldn't judge their faithfulness on this alone. 3 Link to comment

Somebodyz Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Did wonder after last Conference, if this board would change it's name. Do believe it should do so. Link to comment

I’m just pointing out President Nelson’s strong language. It’s too bad President Hinkley offended god so much and encouraged others to do so with his “I’m a Mormon” campaign (which Satan gleefully supported). I’m eager to read the transcript of his talk because so much of it made sense to me, but a few phrases if taken literally (how we should heed prophets at General Conference), I lack the faith to understand. 1 Link to comment

It wasn't Conference, it was 16th Aug. (Sorry for the mistake, I get confused due to health issues. It's the reason for rarely posting.) Thought this board would change it's name, soon after the announcement. Link to comment

california boy Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 If God is offended by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints not using the full name of the church, how can any variation including Latter-day Saint work? Honestly, I am so confused by what is expected on this name change issue. 1 Link to comment
