The church sure loves new erections. They're full of them.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

As much as it makes me retch to agree with ldsfaqs on anything, 50 miles seems like a long way to me. I certainly wouldn't call that "at" the site of the massacre.

I am happy. Up to this minute, I met with that object only in French novels. Certainly by Maupassant & Victor Hugo, maybe other(s).

You appear to be the first source from the New World.

I hope there will be some readers who googles it...

- To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin. - Cardinal Bellarmine at the trial of Galilei

Doc, It is only 50 miles.


Sorry, but that's a huge stretch. Cedar City is 50 miles from St. George, but no one would say this is a Temple "at" St. George.

True, but with all due respect, I agree with Cinepro. . . I think it inaccurate to say that the new building will be erected "at" the Mountain Meadows Massacre site.

Even better, this site indicates that St. George is closer to the site than Cedar City. So the Church "erected a building at Mountain Meadows" back in 1877.
