So someone like Mitt Romney, who is already wealthy and has experienced life, isn't going to be on the council of the twelve. That means the Brethren are just figureheads and the "prophet" is just the figurehead in chief -- so the real power lies with the unseen bureaucrats who run things behind the scenes where the money is.

Think of a North Korean propaganda poster and erase "North Korea" and substitute "Mormon." You are a node waiting to be inserted into the Matrix. Instead of body heat they want ten per cent of your income and your future children's income. It's totally fake. Walk away. Walk away now.

You have illustrated my point exactly. Religious conservatives have created a climate (pun intended) wherein scientific fact is is only "fact" if it supports their pre-conceived ideas. If it doesn't the facts are ignored. There's nothing left or right or religious or non-religious about gay or trans people. They are because mother nature made them that way. There's nothing l
