From an sltrib reader's comment - and boy does that phrase resonate: the "mantle of persecution"

The mantle is greater than the intellect.

The website didn't like my ad-blocker. It gave me a choice of whitelisting them or paying a subscription fee. I choose not to read the article instead.

I can’t read it either. This 10 articles a month thing is getting really fucking old, especially when I mostly want to read the comments.

He should promote his own line of magic underwear.

I liked the comment, "Imitation is the sincerest from of flattery." Made me think some Mormons should just lighten up and laugh at the fact that their underwear is ridiculous--worthy of ridicule.

I choose what I respect. You don't demand it.

Interesting to see so many comments calling the LDS Mormons out.

I couldn't find the "mantle of persecution" comment, but that one always tickles me as my parents have always gone on and on about how persecuted Mormons are, even the Osmonds were "driven out" of Hollywood according to to my Dad, yea, even Donnie and Marie.

Maybe if he does get to do this UofU gig, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can buy an ad in the program! It'll have to be a big ad...
