Huge THANK YOU to Russell M. Nelson (aka: "The Prophet")

I was talking to my very TBM parents yesterday, who are life long members in their 80s, and they were discussing the recent name change the church put out last week. My never-speak-ill-of-the-lord's-annoited mother said of the name change, "I just don't understand why they are doing all of this. I think they are making a huge mistake. I don't think they know what they are doing. (emotional pause) And I've never doubted the prophet before and it scares me."

My father was more blunt, "they've lost their minds, they're all senile."

No idea where this will go, I'm sure they'll double down and doubt their doubts. Regardless, thank you Rebrand Russ, you have caused my extremely devout octogenarian parents to doubt their faith in LDS church leadership. Something I have never been able to do.

Keep up the good work church leaders! You are doing our work for us.
