Lego temples cut building time in half

https://youtu.be/DYeL42qckOs

The church is now using an Alabama company to build prefabricated modules that can be assembled into temples. This cuts the construction time in half.

Just furthering the cheapening of the temple experience more. Once members get temple burnout and the whole concept becomes nothing special more will leave.

The church continues to prove it’s the McDonald’s of religion.

Why don't the use shipping containers?

They could paint them Celestial white and Nelson could dedicate each one before being connected to the next one.

Sounds more like a repurposed "double-wide" to me.

Re: Lego temples cut building time in half

I bet the new temple districts will compete to see who is big or important enough to qualify for a custom designed temple, and who gets the double-wide delivered by truck version.

That is exactly the sort of thing I can see Mormons getting their garmies in a bunch over.

Re: Lego temples cut building time in half

That's just one more step they are taking to cheapen temples from holy special rare places, worthy of making a religious pilgrimage to visit, to sterile McService repetition boxes. It's franchise level religious fast food.

People see the church is hoarding money AND the church is not spending it on shrines worthy of worship.

The need to put a clown on top of the spire. It’s the McDonald’s of religion and a real clown show goes on inside. Funny hats, green aprons and magic.

Re: Lego temples cut building time in half

I suggested a while back that they could actually offer temple franchises to enterprising members. A portion of the tithes from each region would go to the franchisees, who would be responsible for maintenance and advertising.

Re: Lego temples cut building time in half

That makes sense since they have a lot in common with building fast food joints everywhere! The GAs could visit like corporate inspectors to make sure they are putting on the aprons exactly the same way. Smirk

Re: Lego temples cut building time in half

At this point the construction of temples is the only way the church can claim any growth. So figuring out how to do it quickly and as inexpensively as possible makes sense.

Going cheap and fast is probably the only way they can hope to keep up with Nelson's vainglorious temple announcements.

Re: Lego temples cut building time in half

If the lds church would build homes that fast for people after a hurricane that would be amazing. If it wasn't a temple but a school or a grocery store after a natural disaster. Here is me dreaming again how to use the rainy day fund.
