This seems to happen to me every few weeks now. Someone will stop me in the halls at Church and say "Hey a friend of mine shared your post on _____." Going non-anonymous forces you to carefully consider what you post and how you interact.

@AB9666368273323 The Bible is cited far more frequently than the Family Proclamation. If you care for the data on that, here's an entire website that tracks biblical citations by Latter-day Saint General Conference speakers: https://t.co/7plMBuj4FX

Fun side project: I wrote a script to calculate how often each First Presidency and Apostle referenced the Family Proclamation in his General Conference talks (1996 - 2025). This is the chart ranked by the total number of talks each Brother has given. Not surprisingly, incoming
