Default It appears every male at the funeral

is wearing a white shirt. Is there ANY event at the conference center that men would NOT wear a white shirt to? Is it "inappropriate" according to Mormon folklore to wear a colored shirt, even to a funeral?

Yeah, this has been disappointingly impersonal.

Boyd K Packer looks fragile.

Eyring's talk is the best.

Monson is trying too hard to be funny.

Very nice of him to remind us that he is 2nd in line for the prophetship.

A lecture on succession during a prophet's funeral=inappropriate--especially from the man 2nd in line.

About 35% of the church membership has never experienced a death of the President. This has been a common question by many people.

Still inappropriate.

It's not like it's a big secret. They can open a book, ask their bishop, or google it.

your comments are frighteningly pathetic, SoonerCoug.

I wonder who's comments would be more disappointing to the Prophet, President Packer's discussing succession or yours criticizing President Packer's comments.

In truth, I don't wonder - I know.

Forgive me for having an independent opinion.

Unlike you, I don't know what the prophet would say or think.

Perhaps the prophet would condemn me and call me pathetic, just like you did?
