I've no idea of what you mean. The only thing is, that he was dragging the cross instead of carrying it. Actually he would need a license plate, because of the wheel. But I don't kow much about road traffic law in the US.

I'm asking what the results are, did he complete the journey? I don't have/watch local news.
We are having Conference now.

Cross dragging isn't any more idiotic than 2 years of missionary duty or x number of days of fasting for an answer to a question or prayer. Having yourself nailed to a cross does take it a couple of steps beyond.

Edited to add:

Actually I do think that giving up two years for proselytizing for a church is more extreme than dragging a cross for 50 to 100 miles, around the world though, that beats the 2 year mission.

Sorry, in my opinion that cross-dragging is one of the most stupid things. Serving on a mission is something completely different: giving two years is certainly more extreme than dragging a cross for 50 or 100 miles, but it makes more sense and it may spring from real faith.

I'm glad he dragged the cross - mostly Mormons eschew the cross. Maybe it means more Mormons are thinking about the meaning of Christ's death on Calvary.

And the more approaching the Catholics, the more I would leave the LDS (remember the words of Brigham Young in JoD).

If he had bought, not in a spectacular way, ice cream for, let's say, blind children in a facility where those children live and are being trained, he would have done a greater thing in the name of Jesus in only one day than in thousand days of his egocentric show time and his obvious need for recognition, and, let me say it, dirty blasphemy.

I can only show my personal contempt for one like him. Even if I wouldn't have prayed for it, I am sorry not a truck has knocked him down.

It does seem more of a self serving publicity stunt to draw attention to his human cannonball business. What was it Christ said about doing alms in public?

You clearly have no comprehension of what "context" is when people say things often.
He's an old man, of course he's seen it occur in the world.... After all.... Where the heck do you think he got the idea????!!!!!
Thus, the context of the comment was in relation to Conference, Mormonism, etc...... The things being talked about in the interview.
Thus he said he'd never seen it done related to those subjects.

Man, you people. Now you see WHY you are liberals and anti-mormons, because you lose basic intelligence and comprehension skills, which then makes you judge everything and everyone falsely.

learn me some grammer, o, wiserst one.!

Well, did he make it or not? And what did he do with the cross on wheels when he got there (if he made it there)?

Well, to complete the symbolism......
