One of them even told me about a former Mormon leader named Golden Kimball whose gospel pronouncements laced with mild profanity were... absolutely Golden.

Ah, so you've found out the secret of "J. Golden Kimball," a true "legend" among "Mormon" scatologists.

FWIW, I too have a very, very bad habit of "speaking in tongues" such that I would hope that Pres. Hinckley never gets wind of it.

But my objection is simply that the ORIGINAL subtitle (which I note has now been changed) was not really in keeping with the spirit of the message.

I wasn't offended, just kind of "uncomfortable".

As another member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Yep, Mormons) I was interested in this thread because I didn't hear him say anything like that "to ..." 'cause he didn't. What he said was more like "if you have to, do so, but remember not to attack those who are innocent if you can avoid it."

The only reason I didn't put up a "My President is Gordon B. Hinckley" bumper sticker on my car during Clinton's occupancy of the White House is that I knew GBH wouldn't approve. He, after all, is a decent and honest man.

I must confess, I wish he had been more like J. Golden Kimball when it came to this.

My response, at least here, will be two appropriate words from a hero. Let's roll.
