They have been given the chance to learn not to dead dunk holocaust victims yet they have been caught doing it after saying they were not going to anymore. REPEATEDLY.

Apparently they cannot learn from the Jews.

What would we learn? That it's better to believe in any old fiction you want, than it is not to believe in fiction?


I think that there could arise two different things (from a sociological point of view--whether it's fiction or not): either there will arise differing denominations/movements/sects as people from differing viewpoints conceptualize historical Mormonism, or the LDS church will crack down so strongly that there will be only the one true way or the highway...I mean, think about it, what religious movement has been able to grow so big yet stay so unified? Islam has Shiites and Sunnis, Buddhism has Theravada and Mahayana, Jainism has Digambaras and Svetambaras, Hinduism has tons of differing schools and traditions, Judaism has Orthodox Conservative and Reform, Christianity has Orthodox Catholic and all the Protestant traditions, etc.....even Mormonism has so many different "break-away" sects from the Bickertonites to the FLDS.
