As much as I despise the cult’s leadership, I feel for this man’s family and friends. Everyone, stay home if possible!

The man attended the temple just last week, when I was sitting home on my butt because my state had the common sense to start shutting everything down.

Maybe the Q15 should start attending temple sessions daily with the church membership, to you know, set an example.

Silly us, leaning on the wisdom of mere mortals!

Men of faith trust ghawd and do his good work! Yes, visit the shut-ins, take them your spiritual gifts, let them breathe deeply the strength of the holy priesthood!

Show us the strength of your faith, you stupid, credulous mormons...



How horrid of me to revel in the dismantling of SLC-centered mormonism.

Go get'em, Denver Snuffer! Go get'em, you dumb ass Chad Daybell!

Cynicism may not win the final pot, but it's still very much in the game.

I'm somewhat FLOORED that the Desperate News printed this!

Sooner or later, the man's name & reputation will be m/less pubilc information, which is NO ONE's BUSINESS except family & friends; no doubt some Nazi-Mos will find something to chortle about, saying it 'was his fault', not ChurchCos...

Vicious & self-righteous you say, that's the ChurchCo brand!!

Unfortunately for Utah, that number will rise especially with those Covidiots at the Salt Lake airport waiting for missionaries.

Clicking on the related link in the article reveals HALF of the Morg’s temples worldwide are still open!

This is just ridiculous. They said they aren't worried about infection because he went to the temple a week ago and wasn't showing symptoms. That's when the virus is likely to have spread. Good grief. The stupid is going to get people killed!

AND they'll say see how wonderful he is for going to the temple. I did see something the daughter wrote, but I couldn't find it now if I tried.

My mother and her brother died within about 6 months of each other. My mother worked HARD all her life and all I could think was I want her to rest. My cousin, who has never lived like a 'good mormon,' got sent home from his mission for having an affair with a married woman, said, "God must really have some big work going on and he needed both of them." HUH?

Just read the article. Oh, so that is why they closed the Bountiful temple. Why don't they tell us where he traveled? Sounds suspicious. They obviously suspect that is where he was exposed.

Yes, this exactly how they will spin it!

I think I have shared the story about the reckless actions of a bishop who took the youth to the river. He dove in and clobbered a submerged rock. He broke his neck, and died shortly after.

Leaders didn't focus on how stupid it was to dive head first into murky waters. Instead it was all about HF calling him home for a "special" work and wonder.

I think the church will ultimately spin the death that this 60+ individual had pre-existing health conditions and it was misfortunate that he passed on after attending the temple.

Oh, I thought that even asymptomatic people could spread the virus. But, maybe that's one more truth for mormons that just isn't useful.


From the article:

“Patrons, volunteers or workers at the Bountiful temple are not considered at risk because their temple attendance was prior to the case’s onset of symptoms,” said Isa Perry, public information officer for the Davis County Health Department. “Our guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control are that those who are considered at risk are those who were in close contact after onset of symptoms.”


How Mormons twist the truth for their infomercial.

if I were the people. Like I posted, a guy who was fixing a machine where my boyfriend works started having symptoms late at night. He was from CA. They had him drive home instead of fly and then they sent him to the doctor. Doctor said it was flu. Didn't say if he tested for flu. I keep reading and hearing of people who have been diagnosed as pneumonia and then end up being positive for Corona later on. We are a week in since the guy worked at the place my boyfriend does. My boyfriend had direct contact with him and me. I have no symptoms.

I don't think we can be too careful now. OBVIOUSLY, the LDS church is afraid he did expose the people at the temple.

Why are they testing some and not others. Coach of New Orleans Saints was tested as he didn't feel well, but didn't have a fever or a cough, and they tested him and he was positive, but they don't test someone with diagnosed pneumonia. My neighbor's dad was sent home with pneumonia and antibiotics, and still was sick, so he went back to the doctor and he has Corona. He is 77. And they DIDN'T TEST HIM when he first went in.

cl2 asked,

I think because many people would rather rely on their feelings instead of science. Science doesn't 'mean' well. Science just "IS"!

But feeling good, having good thoughts, hoping for the best, that's what we humans do best, and science can't touch us in this regard!!

Sending him home with our best thoughts and our warm regards! Wow, that's humanity in action!!

At what point do TBM's come to the realization the priesthood is about as usefull as the toy in a box of CrackerJacks and won't save them from the square root of SFA! I'm betting never for a lot of them, sadly.

I can't believe they are still keeping the temples open and operating.

Are they still doing endowment sessions where strangers are giving handshakes and whispering the sacred stuff into each others' ears???

Forget about the sacrament being passed around, this is some physical contact between strangers, with most of them elderly!

If a faithful member dies, "The Lord has important work for him in the spirit world".

If Shinehah dies, "See what happens when you leave the church".

I'm just wondering if he knew he had "something," and figured this was his last ditch effort for God to heal him.

We were taught that, in the celestial room, you can ask for anything, and that SHALL be granted to you.


I think TSCC just doesn't want their big stash paying out lawsuits, so the timeline in this case was tweaked a little.

I never even got to sit down in the CR. They never gave me long enough to get through the veil since I only went through the veil 4 times. The last time, my robe was on inside out.

But this man should never have been in the temple. Seems he must have had symptoms to have died that fast, but who knows. I don't understand the virus.

I don’t think you’re seeing the silver lining. The secret handshakes were fresh in this guy’s mind, so now he is ruling and reigning in the House of Israel, bossing all of the smoothies around. Not to mention hooking up with countless spirit wives.

That begs the question, Bradley, how does one do a hook-up with a spirit wife? A boner in the hand is worth more than two in the spirit bush. Just sayin’.

A high calling is an erection made sure for eternity. Spiritual eyes can see even the power of Min in the facsimile of Abraham. One look at the power and priesthoods of some men and there are sure to be multiple Mormon-has-ums. IF that doesn't work just stick ur, um, in their bum, ums. It will take their breast plates away.

For the life of me, I can't figure out why he wasn't kept in the hospital so he could have been intubated if needed.

He should have been sent to a REAL IHC hospital in SLC with a REAL ICU. But they let him go home?

Holy Sh*t! what were they thinking?

Shame on all of you bountiful temple people!
