Once again, the Morg has outdone themselves with the opulence of the Payson temple.

I'm sure this is where Jesus would dwell, not among the poor, the downtrodden, the hungry, the mentally ill. How many more of these temples do we need? http://www.sltrib.com/lifestyle/faith/2425147-155/photo-gallery-see-inside-paysons

He lives in the minds of the believers, many of which will attend that temple regularly. He also lives, dressed in a cheap white costume, in the projectors of the temple. So, in more ways than one, he does live there...and so does Satan...

My incredibly boring brother lives a couple of blocks from the Payson temple. Maybe Jesus put a temple there because he's equally boring. Or maybe he wants to score a crapload of dietary supplements from my SIL.

They all look like Mary Kay HQs to me.

What kills me is how much in YWs we made fun of the Catholics with their churches. It never occurred to us as young LDS that our temples are just as bad, they just aren't as public.

Another penis ejaculating an Angel Moroni

Ha! Perfect.

Apparently Jesus has bad taste and an aversion to color.

With those white carpets, hopefully he remembers to take his sandals when he comes indoors, or heavenly mother is going to have a fit.

Every temple I've seen, so much white. It takes all my strength to not coat myself in paint and roll around on everything.

LDS Inc certainly looks bad compared to the actions of Pope Francis deciding to live with the priests rather than the papal mansion.

The recommend desk looks like the concierge desk in a Four Seasons. My wife quipped that the celestial room looks like the lady's lounge in Saks 5th Avenue.

In the new Testament the Pharisees were the temple keepers. They still are.

I think the Sadducees controlled the temple. If anything, they were worse than the Pharisees.

And the Sadducees were the wealthy class, weren't they? You're probably right that they had the real power.

Mormon tacky, let's set the principles of interior design back 50 years. The Boner.

How easy would it be to be a "temple architect"? You certainly wouldn't need any creativity.

brilliant!

Why don't they ever brag with a picture the room that depicts where they give the Second Anointing?

I heard a Jew make an interesting comment: "Why do Mormons build more than one temple? God only needs one house."

One Chihuly chandelier would easily trounce that bland festival of boredom.

Supervised the installation of a nice blue/green toned Chihuly chandelier in a home in Pacific Palisades a couple years ago.

It really tied the room together. Cost including installation and cleaning: $900,000.00

Why the heck not?
Is he any less of a pompous A$$ than Morons?

They're getting killed (and rightly so) in the comments.

All is not well in zion.

Frankly, I'm surprised at the volume of "this isn't Christ like."

I like it. I think it looks nice.

I'd like to live in a house like that.

My big problem is with the endowment, which is at times either vicious or ridiculous. It makes a few fanatics think they own the rest of your life. I find that ugly and therefore out of place in a beautiful building.

Maybe one of these days the LDS high priests will come up with something appropriate to do in that building.

It would look 100% better if they'd put in dark hardwood floors instead of miles of white carpet.

This looks like a rest home for rich elderly folks who shuffle their rubber soled slippers across the carpet. Oh, right! That's what it is!

I want a brand new house on an episode of Cribs,
And a bathroom I can play baseball in,
And a king size tub big enough for ten plus me.

hahahahaha!!!!

I wonder how many hungry families they could have fed instead of building that thing.

How many education centers could have been built and staffed to teach the homeless some skills? How many shelters could have been built to give those without hope some dignity and a way out of a bottomless pit? How many clinics staffed with social workers, psychiatrists, and psychologists could have been built to help the mentally ill who wander our streets?
