I honestly think this guy is a fake, just trying to make Mormons look bad. He can't possibly be this bad, or could he?

Another beef: whatever program he's using to host his site, it really sucks. All the right-mouse options are disabled, and you can't select any text. It's crazy, and annoying as all hell.

Also, his web page looks like crap.
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

He was interviewed on Fox News, he has a link to it under creeds and politics.

Crook discussed his web site on soldiers.

He can't be for real, can he?


No, he's for real. There is an interview of him on Hannity and Colmes floating around on Youtube. In this charming clip, Crook explains why he cheers each time a U.S. soldier gets killed.

I hope that even the most motivated of critics of the LDS church would defend the good in the church against the terrible impression that this yahoo makes. We may laugh about some of the unrealistic images that have shown up recently in "I am a Mormon", but I don't think that any of the working mothers or rock "stars" are as far out of the norm as Bro Crooks.
