"Let the book of the past be closed."

Giant *what* among men?

Ah, nostalgia among LDS. Remembering when there was a 'prophet' that was more than a mere placeholder until death.

Wow. They over produced the stock of DVDs.

Desbooks has this tripe on sale for a meager $4.99, 80% off the original price of $25.

I hope they don't skip over the part where he dodged the draft in WWII by running off and working for the railroad (draft exempt position) and then as soon as the war was over he jumped right back into his cushy church position that his last name and family connections bought him.

GBH was belonged to Mormon royalty and took advantage of the nepotism that is the sad heritage of the church to ascend to the top spot. He was also one of the more self centered and narcissistic presidents. His son was called to the seventies while he was president. Something that would not be tolerated in most businesses. His televised birthday parties were over the top.

Some latin member felt The SpiritĀ® prompting him to not only illegally publish this tripe on Vimeo, but he watched it on a iPad mini in a top hat and translated it to add spanish subtitles.

Anyway, watch the tripe here: https://vimeo.com/79625489

Is it me or do the opening bars of music from the first scene sound like it's going to bust into Mormon favourite, Princess Bride?
