I was embarrassed for him!

Today in sacrament meeting I was a witness to a very disturbing talk. A young man (last semester senior and a returned missionary) was the concluding speaker. He had 20 minutes, and he took them all. During the course of his talk I heard the following:

• 2 times he used the word Dude
• 4 times he said the phrase "oh crap"
• 5 times he said some version of "it sucks" - including when referring to not being ready for the celestial kingdom
• he said if you don't keep the commandments you are in deep doo doo
• 3 times he said if he was offending anyone, sorry too bad
• he admitted that he listens to inappropriate music - buy hey the people who know him understand that he just loves the artists
• he said he prepared his talk at the last minute (like that was a surprise) and was confused as to why he had not gotten inspiration while he was wrestling the day before or at the hockey game the evening before in Wyoming
• he said that he watches sports center all day long everyday and because of that he felt that the bishopric were rude because they came to visit during a playoff game. He said that he didn't listen to anything they said and just nodded or said "ya." He said that he made some "bad" comment because of a play he was unhappy with, but he didn't care how they felt about him because he was in his last semester.
• all in all he was surprised they had asked him to speak (I bet the bishopric was sorry they had asked).

I could not even look at him and the poor bishop just sat with his head hanging down during this boy's talk. I wonder if he will ever understand appropriate behavior in a church meeting.
