For some, Elder Uchtdorf’s release back into The 12 is being interpreted as a big mistake on the part of the Quorum. They bore that testimony many times yesterday and in the past as well.Īnother thread which I observed complained that now that Elder Uchtdorf was no longer in the First Presidency that there was less inclusivity in the church than ever before and how were they an Mormon ever going to feel welcome at church again.
No, The 12 are unanimous in their decisions and work. Nelson didn’t get along and had philosophical disagreements and that this was a punishment for Elder Uchtdorf - a sort of “bad dog” moment, if you will. One person speculated the reason for this was that Elder Uchtdorf and Pres. One of the complaints/speculations I read had to do with Elder Uchtdorf resuming his place in the Quorum of the 12. Thankfully I saw more expressions of gladness and gratitude than of murmuring and disagreement - although those were out there.
As the day progressed I searched out and read the reactions of other people. Yesterday’s announcement of the new First Presidency was another milestone event for members of the church. It’s always interesting to me to see reactions to changes in the church.
