I recently spent a couple of weeks in Utah County. Seemed pretty nice. The Mormons seem secure in their inter-mountain sanctuary. I really can't see it falling apart anytime soon unless a real bombshell hits, completely blowing away their religion. If it has survived what has already hit them, I don't see anything big on the horizon that will destroy their practices.

Yep...especially UT county...a.k.a. The Bubble. Die hard TBMs don't like leaving the Bubble...except to serve their missions...then it's right back in..

Case in point: My employer hired some interns to work the summmer here. The pool was mostly from BYU. Anyway...this 20yr old...EDUCATED young man asked...."Why are there so many foreigners here?? Is it because there labor is so much cheaper compared to us Americans?"
