As a Mormon male (albeit a few years younger than Mitt) I found this evaluation to be insightful (both about the Mormon Church and the context in which so many of us were raised).

Great line

"Being stuck in the 1950s is a status practically deified by the Mormon Church. But to many outside of Mormonism, it all seems like an odd relic of a bygone era. "

Describes The Cult quite well.

Thanks for posting this.
