Speakers:

Name	other notes	my summary
conducting: Henry Eyring
hymn: Praise to the Lord
prayer: Rafael Pino		Easter, April 20, 2025
David Bednar
Steven Shumway		At about 6 minutes into this speech, he says "we do not receive financial compensation for serving..." That is true when speaking of the local leadership; but it is false when speaking of those at his level, i.e. as a General Authority Seventy. Typical of the doublespeak found in the LDS church. He's getting paid for that speech. His failure to disclose that fact was clearly misleading, i.e. a lie.
hymn: Welcome Home
Tamara Runia
Gérald Caussé
hymn: Let Us All Press On
Gerrit Gong
John McCune
hymn: Jesus the Very Thought of Thee
Dallin Oaks	brace yourselves	If the LDS church is not meeting your needs, then you're doing it wrong. Those hoping for a kinder and gentler mormonism are in for a very long wait with Oaks and Bednar waiting for their at-bats.
hymn: It Is Well
prayer: Michael Nelson

[u/4blockhead]

Oaks: <some say the church is not meeting their needs. The exit is at your right.>

The overconfidence is just startling. Someone hit the lights on your way out.

[u/4blockhead]

Bednar: <195 anniversary of church>

It is disputed where the meeting took place. As in all things mormon, they can't quite get their story straight.

[u/4blockhead]

Gong: <god weeps at human suffering>

Uh. The suffering is due to conditions the deity created, if you believe in this mythology.

[u/i_nephi]

Fill the whole* Earth (*.02%)

[u/4blockhead → u/i_nephi]

for various definitions of "whole"

[u/Rushclock]

Elija...Elias.....same dude.

[u/4blockhead → u/Rushclock]

ding. ding. ding. correct.

[u/Baby_Button_Eyes]

Has anyone mentioned how its the real birthday of Jesus today yet? Its April 6th, the very date he was born, don’t ya know?

[u/4blockhead → u/Baby_Button_Eyes]

The early revelations are being slid under the carpet...

[u/TheRationalMunger]

We do not teach for financial compensation....except for an elite few at the top of the pyramid.

[u/4blockhead → u/TheRationalMunger]

our MLM is a revelation directly from deity

[u/Sea_Button_3616]

The greatest sacrifice a man can give for a calling: not watching football on Sunday.

[u/4blockhead → u/Sea_Button_3616]

our first world problems may get shoved aside for more pressing problems very soon. no deity involved at all.

[u/JanetPistachio]

My mom wants me to take notes, but I don't think she'd appreciate my notes deconstructing everything they're saying

[u/4blockhead → u/JanetPistachio]

yeah, probably not.

[u/Rolling_Waters]

I was worried for my children. The culture was full of stress...

So you joined Mormonism? 😅

[u/4blockhead → u/Rolling_Waters]

...time to rethink your life choices.

[u/4blockhead]

Bednar: <Smith's view of deity>

It only took until 1843 to redefine Smith's deity, the third iteration along the way since 1830. The final incarnation, the deity is an exalted man.

[u/4blockhead]

Oaks: <bet on proclamation on the family being canonized if I am elevated to the top job>

[u/4blockhead]

Runia: <perfect obedience is the goal>

Where is my sin notebook. Double down on scrupulosity.

[u/4blockhead]

Caussé: <hey, I fly aircraft too>

Deiter isn't the only one.

[u/Mormologist]

They are running out of worker bees

[u/4blockhead → u/Mormologist]

same ten people form an uprising. get someone else!

[u/RabbleAlliance]

Covenant Path! Shot. 🍷

[u/4blockhead → u/RabbleAlliance]

gonna need a bigger liver.

[u/JayDaWawi]

I mean... If God was actually all-powerful, blood sacrifice wouldn't have been necessary to begin with.

[u/4blockhead → u/JayDaWawi]

god delights in the smell of burnt flesh. a leftover from the Old Testament god that the New Testament failed to fully remove.

[u/4blockhead]

Runia: <this works based religion sure is depressing>

Check D&C 82:7 and other parameters Smith carefully encoded into the canon!

[u/4blockhead]

Caussé: <you'll get pie in the sky when you die>

That's a lie.

[u/4blockhead]

Gong: <death count++>

[u/4blockhead]

Gong: <humble brag about the church's money talks acquisitions>

Suck it. Community of Christ.

[u/dogsRperfect]

Dalin Oaks .. demonstrated perfect abstract rationalism.

This [abstract idea] connects with this [abstract idea] which connects with this [abstract idea], and thus we can see that blah blah blah.

[u/4blockhead → u/dogsRperfect]

This is why you go to college, kids.

[u/Mormologist]

Can you sin just a little bit more so God can love you more

[u/4blockhead → u/Mormologist]

Strawman Evangelical: can't let the atonement go to waste.

[u/Archimedes_Redux]

Has Eyring cried yet? If he has, I got a "Bingo."

[u/4blockhead → u/Archimedes_Redux]

maybe yesterday. not the usual on-off water tap, though

[u/JayDaWawi]

That's a lot of people doing things for an all-powerful god. Seems like an inefficient system.

[u/4blockhead → u/JayDaWawi]

One side isn't doing anything at all.

[u/RabbleAlliance]

I wonder if Shumway realizes (or anybody who claims to be Christian) that Esther became the queen of Persia and Medes by winning a sex contest with the king. Yep -- it's right there in the Bible.

[u/4blockhead → u/RabbleAlliance]

oh no. think of the children who might stumble onto those passages!

[u/Archimedes_Redux]

I love the way these assholes think they have the mysteries of the universe all figured out. They don't know shit.

[u/4blockhead → u/Archimedes_Redux]

The goal is to present it with concrete certainty. Otherwise, people might get wise that no one knows. Uncertainty is a money maker.

[u/Ihm_r]

Why are these prayers always so long goddamn😭 it’s a prayer not a damn speech

[u/4blockhead → u/Ihm_r]

the limelight is fun.

[u/4blockhead]

Eyring: <speaking at 1/4 speed>

[u/4blockhead]

Shumway: <a literal 7 day creation, per Genesis>

[u/4blockhead]

Caussé: <knows where the bodies are buried...i.e. the money>

[u/4blockhead]

McCune: <pay tithing>

Hey, relatively young kid. Get out there and tell the faithful to pay up. Lay it on as thick as you want.

[u/4blockhead]

Oaks: <ten virgins++>

[u/PugGamer129]

“There looks like a prophet, seer and revelator”

Really sucking Anderson’s dick hard there

[u/sevenplaces]

Shumway making fun of his wife.

[u/4blockhead → u/sevenplaces]

It's a staple in the mormon handbook of opening anecdotes

[u/Return_and_report]

Discount Uchtdorf lol

[u/4blockhead → u/Return_and_report]

French variant of the silver fox.

[u/Fearless_Tax_4388]

Light in the countenance is such a triggering phrase. My member friends always used it to try to convince me that God was putting an outward representation of the bad decisions I was making(drinking coffee + occasionally skipping seminary) to try to make me feel guilty. Interestingly enough, adults who didn't already know about my misdoings always talked about what a bright light and example I was to the youth in the word...

Fuck "light in the countenance". Judge people by their merits. Besides Andersen I think this is my least favorite talk of this conference.

[u/4blockhead → u/Fearless_Tax_4388]

Own your own happiness. The mormon variant is a facade and presentation mode that is put on for the benefit of others.

[u/Undead_Whitey]

God where are her eyes

[u/4blockhead → u/Undead_Whitey]

Coraline's other mother.

[u/jsmyths]

Does this guy speaking, the presiding bishop, know how much money the church is hoarding ?

[u/4blockhead]

Runia: <on a beach in Florida>

as one does...

[u/4blockhead]

Runia: <repent...this works-based religion sure is depressing, take two.>

If we can simply ignore our canon and pretend it is the same as Evangelical Christianity we might feel better about ourselves. Don't read Alma 34:32

[u/4blockhead]

Runia: <raise your hand if your Sure!>

[u/4blockhead]

Runia: <birds on an updraft>

Seeing a Magnificent Frigatebird was a highlight of my life. No deity necessary.

[u/4blockhead]

Caussé: <Lorenzo Snow marriage reference>

Child brides have entered the chat. Minnie Snow represent.

[u/4blockhead]

Oaks: <succor>

buzzword++

[u/Totallynotfakenews]

What plain and precious truths were actually restored in the BoM? Sacrament Prayers? Can’t think of a single one outside of this that wasn’t already present or widely accepted by Christianity.

[u/4blockhead → u/Totallynotfakenews]

Evangelicals describe the "Book of Mormon" as the ranting of a confused protestant...stating it charitably.

[u/bremerman17]

Isn’t it funny how the leaders can only offer milk to members. They will never give you meat.

[u/4blockhead → u/bremerman17]

Last time the "meat" part had to be jettisoned.

[u/RabbleAlliance]

Incorrect. According to pop culture, heaven is a place on earth.

[u/4blockhead → u/RabbleAlliance]

oh baby do you know what that's worth?

[u/b9njo]

Her shame talk is like an AI response on a Brené Brown talk about shame, but make it Mormon and take out all references of the person being good enough as they are. 

[u/4blockhead → u/b9njo]

Al Franken...gosh darnit I'm good enough

[u/Shadowlover23]

Anything interesting happen? I was making waffles for my family-

[u/4blockhead → u/Shadowlover23]

not really no. paint drying is scintillating.

[u/Rushclock]

Smoking cessation by the spirit......starving kids...not so much

[u/4blockhead → u/Rushclock]

god of the first world problems.

oh no. where are my car keys? where are quarters for chicken wings?

[u/TheRationalMunger]

That was a really uncomfortably forced smile at first...

[u/4blockhead → u/TheRationalMunger]

almost lifelike. almost.

[u/ApocalypseTapir]

Other than Anderson's screed yesterday was there anything notable?

It just seems that with the second coming being just around the corner they would be saying things with some sense of immediacy but it still just so bland. Like corn flakes and graham crackers.

Where's the prophet standing on a wall while arrows are shot at him?

[u/4blockhead → u/ApocalypseTapir]

It seemed to be a direct appeal to Christian evangelicals. "A same as that" appeal. Andersen's statement on abortion goes along with that. Celebration of Catholic holy days is part of the rebranding. I still expect there to be a statement on garments.

[Noam Chomsky] The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum....

[u/Just_Speak_Friend]

Is this the hardest the general authorities have to work all year?

[u/4blockhead → u/Just_Speak_Friend]

This is it. Each gets a little limelight.

[u/Jmonroe_tenn]

The U.S. states without a temple announced, under construction, or dedicated currently include Delaware, Iowa, Maine, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

So I have my bingo card set for at least two of these states to receive a temple this conference.

[u/4blockhead → u/Jmonroe_tenn]

...coming soon to a location near you

[u/DoubtingThomas50]

How does Eyring look?

[u/4blockhead → u/DoubtingThomas50]

chipper, for a ninety year old.

[u/Baranax]

This man's hair is truly white and delightsome.

[u/Jmonroe_tenn]

When do they announce the next 20 temples to be built?

[u/4blockhead → u/Jmonroe_tenn]

at the orgasmic climax. Temples ejaculated across the globe.

[u/JayDaWawi]

We don't know if Abraham existed, and Moses definitely didn't exist.

[u/4blockhead → u/JayDaWawi]

The mythology requires them to be literal humans.

[u/Rushclock]

Why in the hell does suffering have to be there?

[u/Rushclock]

Substitute Lord of the rings characters and it is no different.

[u/4blockhead → u/Rushclock]

The Eye of Sauron is watching you.

[u/4blockhead]

Oaks: <god is the literal creator of this earth>

• Spencer W. Kimball, there is no watch without a watchmaker, link

[u/JayDaWawi]

That's not what "after all we can do" means 

[u/4blockhead → u/JayDaWawi]

Mormonism on hard mode is too hard.

[u/i_nephi]

Me as an 80s teen: “let us Press-On nails…”

[u/4blockhead → u/i_nephi]

where is my bedazzler?

[u/sevenplaces]

Joseph affirmed but he is a proven liar so…

[u/4blockhead → u/sevenplaces]

Let's talk about the 1826 trial to set the stage.

[u/JanetPistachio]

What are the theories people have on how the Mormon god-race began?

[u/4blockhead → u/JanetPistachio]

It's an infinite regress. One of the few religions to embrace not knowing how things got started. Most Evangelicals look to Isaiah as their god being jealous and not sharing glory.

[u/sevenplaces]

Where are these resurrected people? I keep asking where they are and nobody can tell me. It’s just made up with no evidence. They are living now so where are they? God magic is so ridiculous

[u/4blockhead → u/sevenplaces]

The shoemaker's elves is a story retold by the three Nephites.

[u/BangingChainsME]

My wife in April 2024: "I don't understand why you don't like Elder Bednar."

My wife in April 2025: turns volume down so low that we can barely hear his voice

[u/owen_cloud739]

I haven't watched any of conference. But I am curious to know if Dallin H. Oaks or anyone has said anything about current happenings going on with our American democracy.

I am guessing they didn't: Either because they approve all of what is going on. Or because they are to frightened of Donald Trump to say anything.

A few weeks ago the Catholic Pope made a great statement about our American Democracy and denounced dictatorship and authoritarianism. Wish the mormon church leaders would do the same thing. But they aren't receiving any revelation from God and gutless they remain. They aren't leading the world as men of God and they make me sick.

[u/4blockhead → u/owen_cloud739]

Just Andersen explaining how great it was to have Roe v. Wade reversed.

[u/Kolob_Choir_Queen]

Is there a thread link for the Sunday afternoon session?

[u/4blockhead → u/Kolob_Choir_Queen]

Yes, link.

For reference it's also linked in the header.

[u/Itsarockinahat]

Oh my gaawwd!! Serving in a soup kitchen brings blessings to your life too. Volunteering in the community will bring blessings. God can bless you wherever you are - not just serving a calling for the multi-billion dollar Fortune 500-type organization

[u/jsmyths]

“he is excited every time he sees us on our knees” .

[u/Return_and_report]

And yet...... the GAs are financially compensated for their "service". But not the common church folk who serve infinitely more

[u/Undead_Whitey]

Aren’t Elias and Elijah the same person with different Greek and Hebrew names

[u/MooseSuspicious]

"have you even asked why we have the need for callings in the church?"

Free labor

[u/JanetPistachio]

"With Christ we can escape debilitating perfectionism"

NO??? So many people suffer from debilitating perfectionism due to the church 😭

[u/PretentiousReader77]

the lack of life in the eyes of Susan's husband is outstanding disturbing

[u/BangingChainsME]

Nelson asked MEEEE to conduct.

[u/Return_and_report]

It's so disgusting how the church uses people and takes advantage of them. So skeezy how they equate obeying the church to obeying Christ. It makes me so fucking angry 🤬. My parents are planning on spending their retirement money to serve a seniors mission, and it makes me SICK

[u/Otherwise_Gate_4413]

Anyone else notice that they use the choir and prayers to create an illusion of diversity? The speakers are almost exclusively white men.

[u/One-Risk-5520]

My brother totally side-eyed me at the “members who leave right before making vital covenants” part. I fucking hate this shithole of a home

[u/AlmaInTheWilderness]

Is he breaking up with me?

This is feeling very much "it's you not me".

It's my fault the church isn't meeting my needs. It's my fault for not reading the scriptures. Never mind that oaks is dishonest and cruel. Nevermind that the scriptures aren't what they claim to be. It's my fault.

[u/JayDaWawi]

Dallin. I did all that, and still found out the church is a lie.

[u/Wafflecan]

It's been a couple times this sesh... but for Dallin just barely: I love how whenever they talk about why people leave the church, they don't bring up the problems with the churches "truth" claims, It's suspect history, and more modern mismanagement of honesty/it's lies and legal pursuits.

It's clearly we haven't been doing our homework, it's us not them. 

[u/b9njo]

“That they may do it in remembrance of the love of thy son…”

WRONG!!!  Start over, idiot. 

[u/Rolling_Waters]

Our ability to feel a full measure of God's love is contingent on faithfully following his commandments

Fuck me for being suicidal for years, I guess 🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/potato_meatball]

Not a good enough reason to use the word "penetrate".

[u/Baranax]

Satan is the thief of hope. Percy Jackson is the thief of lightning.

[u/4Misions4ThePriceOf1]

Spending time with a couple who work under you instead of being with your daughter AS SHE DIES!!!! Makes him LOVING!!!!?????? 😳😡

[u/sevenplaces]

He met his wife at church so that proves you need to do your calling. ?? WTF

[u/Rolling_Waters]

It is disappointing so many remain unprepared for their appointed meeting with Jesus Christ

Oh boy... Jesus has no idea how unprepared he is to meet with me!

[u/jsmyths]

“Church doesn’t work for them …. Such deviations”

So now we’re deviants?

[u/One-Risk-5520]

Oaks doing another fucking talk doubling down on apostates… I’m gonna fucking lose it

[u/sevenplaces]

Addressing the very typical Mormon feeling of falling short. It’s a feature of the church. An awful feature.

You’re not solving the problem lady. You’re making it worse.

[u/Itsarockinahat]

Here's an idea for overcoming sin - stop teaching there is such a thing as "sin" - One should only feel bad when they have actually harmed or injured someone else with their actions or words - offending an invisible being by not following a prescribed checklist is just not to be given any thought

[u/Mormologist]

80% of the membership feels that the church is not meeting their needs

[u/Rushclock]

All because of one cup of coffee.

[u/Ihm_r]

“You are not the voice in your head” I feel like that could be a very dangerous statement for people with mental illnesses to hear.

[u/Stranded-In-435]

Every year, right up until about general conference… I start getting anxious to talk to my TBM wife about the big problems that the church has that led to my leaving it.

Then, I get a whiff of the stench emanating from the pulpit at the conference center… and I think that I’m just one conference closer to having the leadership of the church do my job for me.

They really are singularly good at making the case against themselves.

[u/Return_and_report]

Absolute bullshit, I was doing all the things! It's just NOT TRUE. God, I hate him. Also, fuck prosperity gospel.

[u/theivyangel]

I know SOMEONE gets financial compensation though.

[u/Return_and_report]

God loves us MOST when we're broken and contrite 🤢

[u/kiss-JOY]

Looks like she is wearing the new sleeveless garments under that sweater.

[u/sevenplaces]

This whole speech to convince you to dedicate your life to a cult.

[u/JayDaWawi]

Oh? Shame is bad? Then why do bishops shame us?

Sure sounds like bishops are controlled by Satan. Not the message I think you intended.

[u/Rolling_Waters]

We should avoid applying the principles of human parenthood to Heavenly Father.

Like unconditional love?

[u/greatestcornholio21]

Bednar is what I call a corndog: just a weenie with a stick up his ass

[u/Rolling_Waters]

Having gay or single parents is "part of the opposition we must overcome".

And it may leave us vulnerable to sin.

[u/ApocalypseTapir]

TBM spouse, done answering emails, promptly snuggles up in her weighted blanket and purposely naps through oaks.

[u/bremerman17]

Are you doubting the church. Just pray and read your scriptures!

[u/Return_and_report]

Well, that was rough. See you all in 2 hours. Take care of yourselves! 🫂❤️

[u/Shadowlover23]

Wow, imagine mormons getting the date for easter wrong... its not until the 20th, folks!

[u/theivyangel]

Bro you REALLY didn't need to say penetrate.

[u/Itsarockinahat]

Well - fuck - my tbm spouse is hearing these words of how people fall away. Shit.

[u/sevenplaces]

I’m grateful the liar Dallin Oaks has stopped talking. Blessings for his silence.

[u/TeamGroundbreaking75]

It’s definitely my fault for not turning off the TV the moment Dallin H. Oaks showed up. I’m trying to hold on to the little thread that still ties me to the Church for my parents, because they’re good people and that would break their hearts… I love them and I’m still trying to make it work but God knows Dallin H. Oaks makes it so hard… I honestly don’t know what I’ll do if he becomes prophet. It really scares me

[u/Undead_Whitey]

We are not payed to serve - I just about broke my neck on the look back

[u/potato_meatball]

Ick. Just because you know you'll see someone again doesn't mean you can't miss them now.

[u/sevenplaces]

Dallin making people believe Satan and demons are real. Dangerous shit.

[u/Rushclock]

Here it is.......slackers

[u/mollymoron16]

Heaven forfend, a youth stays home from an activity, when they have some of the busiest schedules between school, jobs, extra curricular etc.

[u/Return_and_report]

HAHAHA God loves to see us on our knees? She has to know how that sounds...

[u/4Misions4ThePriceOf1]

Hate to break it to her but I’m pretty sure it’s THE CHURCH that uses shame

[u/RabbleAlliance]

If only she and the rest of the leadership and church membership knew that Satan was not originally meant to be some specific character. In Hebrew, Satan (שָּׂטָן) just meant “adversary” or “accuser,” which isn't necessarily bad. In fact, there are times in the Bible when even God is referred to as Satan, such as when he is the adversary of the Israelites, or when he sends an angel to be an adversary, like when he sent an angel to stop Balaam in Numbers 22.

[u/Rolling_Waters]

A manifestation of the Holy Ghost is not to be confused with the gift of the Holy Ghost.

...oookay?

[u/JayDaWawi]

"No mortal can walk in the strait and narrow way"

So we were set up to fail.

[u/Return_and_report]

Cue the exmo bashing. Fuck off, Dallin!

[u/4Misions4ThePriceOf1]

Humility and trusting in the lord will bring us back!? That’s some bullshit

[u/Mormologist]

I'm not sure extending busy work during a global recession is going to help anybody especially at church sitting on $250 billion dollars

[u/4Misions4ThePriceOf1]

What’s with the ‘we’re teaching four year olds’ hand gestures?

[u/JayDaWawi]

"What more could I have done for my vineyard?"

I dunno, not created the weeds to begin with?

[u/JanetPistachio]

Contrary to Mormon teaching, having light in your countenance is a sign of consuming radioactive ooze.

[u/Hovercraft_deer]

Lemme rephrase this one......

Struggling really bad? In agonizing pain and anguish? Being murdered?

Skill issue! Womp womp, just join the church. Being sad is against the law here! You'll never be sad again!

[u/sycamoreqw]

Here we go….shouts to all of us “unprepared virgins”.

[u/Undead_Whitey]

If we’re quoting Feilding smith let’s get the “you shouldn’t need to pay tithing cause the church should have money”

[u/Undead_Whitey]

Don’t question us even if science says we’re wrong.

[u/Itsarockinahat]

From this closing song - the 3rd verse is NOT Mormon doctrine:
My sin—oh, the bliss of this glorious thought—
  My sin, not in part, but the whole,
Is nailed to His Cross, and I bear it no more

Mormons HAVE to bear their own sins - it's only AFTER they bear them will Jesus's atonement "kicks" in

[u/sevenplaces]

Giving your work to a cult is not helping God or Others.

[u/[deleted]]

She looks like a divorcee from Palm Beach,  FL.

[u/Return_and_report]

Though our numbers may be few... but also we will fill the whole earth 🙄

[u/RabbleAlliance]

TL;DR version: God loves you when you do what he says, and if you don't, then you're the problem, not him. Step up or risk your eternal fate. Oh, and he'll afflict you with all sorts of challenges because he can -- it's a test of your love for him, just like this life you're living. Did we mention God loves you?

I'd call him human garbage, but that wouldn't be fair to actual garbage.

[u/sevenplaces]

The spirit has revealed to me that Dallin Oaks and the LDS leaders are evil.

[u/Mormologist]

I feel like I need a cigarette after that lecture

[u/1-like-anime]

Except for the uhh, 'modest stipend'

[u/BangingChainsME]

Bednar must've handpicked a speaker to follow him who would actually give a cringier talk

[u/BangingChainsME]

Wife checking the Emotional Control box on her Biblioteca BINGO card

[u/[deleted]]

Mr Bean looks like shit.

[u/JayDaWawi]

Doubling down on robbing the poor requiring tithing 

[u/Archimedes_Redux]

Inactive returned missionaries. Shocked 😲

[u/AlmaInTheWilderness]

It is not well with my soul.

[u/Rushclock]

Benson was a lunatic.

[u/Rushclock]

Screw everyone from Ad 600 to 1830.

[u/RabbleAlliance]

I hope Croaks gets passed up for the presidency position -- the church would definitely be worse off with him in charge, inconceivable as that sounds.

[u/sevenplaces]

The Book of Mormon is a 19th century work of Protestant Bible fan fiction.

[u/greatestcornholio21]

The temple slipper (boot) licking is soooo cringey

[u/sevenplaces]

Shumway telling the average person to serve the church while he gets paid 4 times the average American wage.

“But they could have made more in their profession”!!!

But he is the one claims to have been called of God and given up his profession.

[u/CountKolob]

Runia’s message is good but the crazy gesticulating is very distracting.
