Seeing how that nasty "pink slime" picture (rooting from Jamie Oliver's efforts) went viral online causing McDonalds to remove it from their meat product made me think about what picture related to the church could go viral and might have a similar effect on the church.
People need to SEE something that's shocking but true and quick to read or look at, and is so shocking that they are moved to share it with friends. Right now there are a lot of great news stories getting passed around about the church, but similarly for McDonald's the information was always out there, but no one really cared until they actually SAW that one picture and felt the disgust in their gut. McDonalds had no choice but to do something.
I had a few ideas:
A picture of Romney in temple clothes doing the secret handshake in a prayer circle with the quote "Romney likes to help dead people become Mormon" (is this not absolutely true?)
Or a picture of a young boy or girl sitting in an office with a bishop who says to him/her "Do you masturbate?
JS with his 14 year old bride.
A picture of the mall purchased with tithing money (with the cost printed underneath) right next to a picture of a member scrubbing a toilet, and a picture of an impoverished child.
What else is shocking and disgusting, but very true about the church and could be summed up in one picture?
