President of the Mormon Church dies at age 97

Storm Rider:
A large portion of my father's extended family is Mormon, but my paternal grandfather broke off from the Church because he basically believed it was a bunch of BS, so now most of them don't talk to us anymore because they think we're all going to hell!

Except my dad actually corresponded with one of his cousins or something via email about Harry Potter until the last book came out. Weird!

onewheelwizzard:
The thing I think is interesting about Mormons is the massive Mormon-to-transsexual/transgender turnover ratio.  A really disproportionately high number of trannies I've met used to be Mormon.  It's kinda freaky.

Am I an asshole? But then again I don't think we should get into this, so to quote Johnny:

Patrick:
Minefields are awesome, I don't know what you people are talking about. I would pay an arm and a leg. RIMSHOT!

Listen, I said I wouldn't make Mormon jokes. I can only hold back so much, guys.

Narr:
If you guys want me to dispel an rumors you have heard about Mormons, now would probably be a good time to do so.

I figured there'd probably be a lot of Mormon bashing.  I'm used to it, honestly.  I've done it a lot myself, truth be told, and I am one.  Sort of.  Mostly.

Hinckley did a lot of really cool stuff throughout his life.  I should go see if I can't find something that explains it in detail, like a news article or something.  Basically, every major disaster that's happened in the last 20 years, he's been there personally to help out however he could.  Partly due to his leadership, the LDS Church has donated more money to large disaster relief funds (one specific one I can think of is the big tsunami that destroyed most of Asia, it seemed like at the time) than just about every other major religion in the world, combined.
