An interesting idea from a SLC lady:

http://www.cityweekly.net/utah/article-67-17601-julie-i-want-to-thank-you-for-your-creative-so.html

An excerpt:

While in California recently, I stopped at an eatery and looked up across the street to behold the majestic San Diego LDS temple. I have spent many hours there convinced I was “saving the dead.” That notion, in a city that boasts the third-largest homeless population in the United States and the largest percentage of homeless veterans, is embarrassing, not to mention incomprehensible.

In 2012, it was reported that the LDS Church spent more money building City Creek Center than it spent in the past 25 years on humanitarian contributions. It’s no small curiosity, since tax-exempt status was granted to religions ostensibly to pick up the slack for the poor and needy. And it’s rather disingenuous, considering that the church requires members to pay 10 percent of their gross income for the privilege of entering one of those temples.


Comments are predictable.

LOL! Love it.

Speaks the volumes I don't want to write.

Nothing says money-crazed cult like "The Mormons." Well, Scientology is even more overt if that is possible.

Interesting how when confronted with the facts about their church, Mormons comment with a guilt-induced list of what they are doing to help.

Ok. So they are the charity their church gives. Thank you Mormons.
