I wanted to make this transition easy for my kids so I married a Rosa. They can swing both ways.

Ouch, why do you feel it necessary to go beyond his being called a troll. You do so well and then every once in a while your "my shit don't stink" personna comes out.

I would agree with this. However, we have to realize the blacks only got the Priesthood in the 70's. You have to have had the Priesthood at least 35 years to get into top leadership. We are still a few years out.

Thats funny.

You do realize that it always will be white dudes pulling the triggers on all major decisions right?

You think the newer, old, white dudes that are called to be 70's or apostles, are going to rock the boat and change the status quo?

As long as the majority of the money from tithes are from white americans the leadership will be reflected in the same manner.

Thank goodness, a voice of reason; and hope if you think about it.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

What are the odds that the Jews really own/operate the LDS Church?

The prolonged absences of fusknik's allow him to build up a denser concentration of crap for his posts.

You disagree with my contention?

I agree with Archaea in the sense that most things are stimulated by cash. The Euro strengthens, and bam, a European apostle to keep the tithes rolling in from the European contingency.
