| Hinckley Warns Youth Against Tattoos, Body-Piercing |
| At the first church-wide fireside directed to LDS
youth in many years, Church President Gordon B. Hinckley repeated his call
for youth to avoid pornography, tattoos, body-piercing and "lascivious" rock
music. Hinckley's remarks repeated his recent calls in the LDS Relief
Society's general meeting September 23rd and the Priesthood session of
General Conference on October 8th, for parents to keep their children from
these practices. |
| LDS Church Cancels Temple Square Lighting Ceremony |
| The LDS Church has cancelled its annual ceremony
lighting Temple Square with hundreds of thousands of lights. The decision,
reportedly due to safety and crowd control concerns, ends a 35-year
tradition of celebrating the lighting of the square. Although the ceremony
will not be held, the lights are still being put up and with the addition of
the LDS Church's new Main Street Plaza and Conference Center, the number of
lights used is larger than ever. |
