Blast from the past: 1996 60 Minutes show about the Mormons

Post by _Polygamy Porter »

Wow, I was part of this wacky church back then?

Segment one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9NhnZ6_0SQ
Segment two: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FU0iqaHnCs
Segment three: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oI7qO5e88Mc

Hinck looks like he gets a bit bothered by some of the probing questions..

Steve Young looks like the typical pudgy single 35 year old Mormon.

Marriott brags about his garmies protecting him from a boating fire. Hey idiot, extra layers of clothes do that.

I missed this episode back then.. whew, I am glad I am not part of that cult!

Yeah, there's a few gems in there:

Hinckley to the missionaries in the MTC: "you're not much to look at, but you're all the lord's got"

Hinckley on BY's comments about blacks: "don't pay attention to those little flicks in history"

Marriott on his garments protecting him: "i was burned on my legs up to where my garments were" (so garments are only supposed to protect the parts of your body that they cover? They won't protect your head?) And, by the way, I rather think he was perpetuating a long-time LDS rumor - how many variations of that story are there?

Hinckley not wanting to talk about Jesus making his return visit to earth in missouri? Why not? That's a huge part of the religion!

etc., etc.

I missed that when it came out. It was nice to finally see that 60 Minutes broadcast.

Maybe his next book could be: Flicks and Blips-A Prophet's View of Mormon History
