"The intelligence of a religion is inversely proportional to the size of the bank balance they accrue.  The bigger their stash, the dumber the leaders become and the more entrenched in preserving 'their' status quo."

"The intelligence of a religion is inversely proportional to the attractiveness of the Elder's Quorum President, which in the 1960s made Provo a uniquely indigent city."

I wondered why I was never attracted to my Elders Quorum presidents. Well, other than my heterosexual orientation.

Some two-year periods feel a lot longer than others.

Or so I'm told. . .

. . . in the 1960s.

"The intelligence of a religion is....."

Wait, is there even such a thing as intelligence in religion?

TBMs can say "My religion made me stupid. What's your excuse?"

No one needs intelligence when you are able to refer to your bank as "the storage locker".

Stupid or smart I question the outsiders who used to curse Mormonism and now think Mormons are so benign. Aren't they a little curious about how the $100,000,000 will be used? The SEC gave them a little hand slap and now it's forgotten? Yikes.

Strip clubs!  

I'd like to see the Apostles have a good time at a strip club!  



This reminds me of the ending of "Support Your Local Sheriff," when the cannon ball busts up the town's brothel and Suzanne Pleshette asks why he did that, and James Garner says, "I didn't mean to do that!  Some of those girls are my best friends!!"

I can't help wondering if the Q15 tell their wives when they get the talk before their investiture letting them know that Joseph was a fraud and an adulterer. I'd think they would be pretty peeved if they later found out about it. I think of my dad who could never keep anything from my mom.

Ah, that explains it. Polygamy isn't cheap. Neither is dating. Why build a harem one at a time when you can just buy a strip club?

When the Lord returns and commands that polygamy be reinstated, the Church will be ready.

What if Jesus wants to be the new Hugh Hefner when he returns? The Church will want to spend a billion on a mansion and a billion on a yacht. You see, it really is a rainy day fund.

It's $100,000,000,000. They plan to liquidate all of that and give to the poor any day now.

Isn't it already liquid and sitting in off shore secret accounts. That's what got them in trouble. But they paid the fine and now it's no problem.

Sorry. I meant billions. My bad.
