6/27/08: Fundamentalist Mormons

Today, I just finished the Krakauer book, "Under the Banner of Heaven." I am always a few years behind on my reading list and just about everything (please reference the previous post on perpetual tardiness).  This book is unbelievable!  I am so intrigued by this religion.

There is no evidence to support the claims of Joseph Smith, the doctrines are ludicrous and the principle, oh the principle.  It has caused so much harm for these little ol' Mormons.

This book is great and Mormons are interesting, especially the fundamentalists.  

I would tell you more but I really want you to read it.  Then realize how well "Big Love" portrays Mormonism.

At least to an outsider.
