What about Stela 5? Do any of you think it is at all dishonest to make this a part of the tour?

I feel that tours, in general, are for entertainment purposes and not entirely factual to begin with.
Here in my town you can pay $50/person for dinner and riding around on a bus seeing the most haunted buildings. I don't really believe these buildings are haunted. I don't think anyone capable of disproving such a theory is even interested enough to disprove that these buildings are haunted. I don't feel that the people who run the ghost tours are dishonest, though. I think they really believe there are haunted buildings here.

The rest of you jumping on the "dishonesty" bandwagon, well, I will remember who you are, too.
Yeah, and God Forbid you all should be caught on Charity's "naughty" list when the crap really hits the fan!
Mormonism ceased being a compelling topic for me when I finally came to terms with its transformation from a personality cult into a combination of a real estate company, a SuperPac, and Westboro Baptist Church. - Kishkumen
