No, it was most definitely there for some period of time. I had actually never seen the Mormon Messages item on the front page of lds.org when I went there during the previous discussions. But I went there just a few minutes after dmaynes said it was back, and indeed it was back. And then when zaneclark said it was not, I checked, and indeed it was gone again.
The good news is that neither dmaynes nor zaneclark is crazy. The bad news is that this item seems to come and go from the front page of lds.org, so it's tough to draw conclusions. Is the Church just rotating messages on the front page? Or is there some sort of tug-of-war over the presence of that message on the front page?
At this exact moment, there is only one item in the bottom middle section of the front page (one about the Draper Temple open house). I don't recall ever seeing only one item in that area -- it seems that there have always been three items there. That's odd....
