Is there anyone that doubts that there are presently members of our church who could be moved into an FLDS lifestyle without much hesitation.

I think I need to get in on this. How does one break into the mormon fireside-for-pay circuit?

I don't think you have to look very far. There are several among us.

There are good reasons for confidentiality.

INstead of blaming the Bishop, why don't you blame the family that didn't reach out and try to learn.

What is an FLDS lifestyle? Obviously there is the polygamy thing, but beyond that.

One hour of church at Easter and one hour at Christmas, I don't see the problem here.

If asked, some people would send every dime they have immediately to the church and the church at their discretion would hand it back out. If the church said to go back to long G's, they would no questioned asked. If they said, secretly marry another wife at your Bishops orders, some would.

I am not saying anything is wrong with this. There are just some who have a great deal more faith than I do. I understand why the American People would want to be assured the man running for President, who is LDS, doesn't have that much faith.
