No. Not at all. For example, Rocky and I have a long history of butting heads but he often makes some good posts and I like to give him credit when he does. And I like fusnik. I just had to bust his balls there a bit.

Oh. So what's the anatomy of a troll post that bothers you? Just for purely academic reasons, of course.

2. He no longer attends church, teaches his kids at home, no longer wears garments and no longer goes to the temple.

3. Told me that the gospel is perfect the church is not.

4. Broke off from the LDS church when he lived in Ephraim with a small group of people and started a different version of the LDS faith. (someone else told me this not him)

5. believes the book of mormon is true even talks about it from time to time.

6. Is definitely an intellectual his favorite book is Atlas Shrugged loves Rand, talks a lot about philosophy, capitalism, and other things that intellectuals talk about .

7. His wife is really hot and i dont think he would want to share her, he told me they dont believe in polygamy here on earth but they do in the afterlife.

Is it just me, or is it odd that you know all this about the religion of your new boss? I could maybe understand if it was a person you've worked with for a long time, but in the workplace who gives a lick about what anyone else's religious ideas are? Did he tell you all this or was it accumulated from co-workers, etc.

Sanpete County is a hotbed of Mormon fundamentalistm. I've heard that 10-20% of the Mormon population is fundy.

And no, I don't have a link, but having met alot of Sanpeters (ha ha, Sanpeters, I like that), I believe it.

You learn a lot about a man during a round of golf.

Personally, I hear many references to various dieties uttered on the golf course but rarely details about the players' religious beliefs. Then again I often play with ivory tower intellectuals on the University course.

Dude, I'll bet that is nipple hardening fun. The band aids covering up those vicious paper cuts must play havoc on one's touch game.
