Is the Mormon Jesus Mall a Temptation Test for Mormons?

Do you think that "for a Profit Hinckley" and Tommy "Let's All have some Pie" Monson built the City Creek Center to test Mormons to see if they could resist temptations and the 7 deadly sins? After all if you look at the stores in the Mormon Jesus mall (http://www.shopcitycreekcenter.com/directory) they certainly tempt one to indulge in:

Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.

Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.

Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.

Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.

Anger is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.

Greed is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.

Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.

Stupid Mormon Jesus, tempting us beyond our ability to resist, especially when your leaders at the dedication of your worldly possession commanded us "Let's Go Shopping"
