I figure with all the stuff Jesus and Joseph Smith had to go through, obviously God will allow faithful members to go through things like financial trouble too.

That HAS to be at least part of the cause. Last edited by FMCoug; 06-28-2007 at 05:33 PM. |

Yes, I've seen those places many times. In the worst areas in those places I bet the bankruptcy rate is high and if not it's just because people aren't even responsible enough to file for bankruptcy or get credit in the first place. The worst I've ever seen is northwest LA, near the Arkansas border not all that far from where Bill Clinton grew up in a single parent household.

There is something in the state whether it is a statistical thing or a real underlying cause that would have us high in bankruptcies and also securities and investment fraud. The study shows me that being LDS and the high level of bankruptcy in Utah doesn't necessarily relate to each other. As I said before, that is reassuring we aren't worse than others and at the same time discouraging we don't do better. |
