This is more of the meaning it still has in Europe, and to a certain extent, in
Canada, although Canada, as in so many things, is halfway between. It has more of
the US meaning here in Alberta, but it has the European meaning more in Ontario,
where I lived for 14 years on two different occasions.

Not so sure I agree, Gary. Reference Approaching Zion Chapters 4 and

Stephen,
You give some nice definitions, but can you show where these definitions
come from? I agree that the term high priest can have more than one
meaning, but there are many Church leaders who would disagree with your
Alma 13 assessment, and say that those were, indeed, high priests in the
Paul and others, just to let you know the process for the calling of a
new stake president:
The General Authorities arrive, and they first interview the current
stake presidency and high council, then the bishops, then other high
priests in the stake, etc.
The GAs don't ask to see the persons
And with reference to all others who also receive the Melchizedek
Priesthood, the scripture saith: And all those who are ordained unto
this priesthood are made like unto the Son of God, abiding a priest

Mostly from the scriptures themselves. I am pretty sure that the Bible
never explicitly specifies that Enos was Adam's grandson, but the
meaning is clear enough that I can say that anyway. Similarly,
Gary, all this side discussion about Alma 13 and such is interesting
enough, and I'm happy enough to continue it -- though I suspect that,
upon review of the relevant teachings and a careful rereading of Alma's
words, you will agree that Alma 13 is much more inclusive than you've
