I think we need a plague of locusts to make it complete.
Off-subject but I looked at that ex-mormon website you linked to yesterday. That is some weird shit. While Catholics are big on families and stuff they aren't telling people to go and get knocked up in college. (In fact because I am getting married in the church they ask a lot of questions about making sure you are financially able to get married.)
Fascinating stuff to read. One of my best friends in high school was Mormon (still is) and married this guy rather quickly in the temple and the collective view of everyone is that she married a gay man. The marriage sure aged her quickly.
Yeah some of it reminds me of what happens when you educate the masses. They begin to question a lot of dogma and often find themselve alienated. This is why any organized religion needs to evolve to the needs of the masses if they are going to survive. Mind you the Catholic Church keeps changing its mind so it keeps people guessing.
