I published it here because it is being published all over the net. It needs refutation, as I said, and Utah Girl, sandude, and Jolly are just the ones to tackle the project.

I personally don't believe a word of it. It is the product of the conspiracy theorists who see young virgins on every altar and the devil under every bed. When he got to the part about his wife's "vision", I started humming the Twilight Zone theme.

Besides, there's no new news to discuss this week in the case, so why not initiate a lively discussion on how conspiracy theories and urban legends seem to sprout up about all these missing children? Remember The Don and his theory about Middle Eastern sheiks having these girls stolen for their harems?

I'm supposed to be gone but this one is just too tempting!

Let me just say that I have been in many temples around the world and can assure you that nothing like this goes on in them! There is nothing sexual or sensual that takes place there. http://www.lds.org/temples/home/0,11273,1896-1,00.html is an excellent site to learn more. I don't know how to link it but you can go to www.lds.org and find out much about temples!

By the way we view it more as temples are sacred not secret!

Hey, Pal--While Utah Girl is furiously zapping articles into cyberspace to correct "Tom Servo's" smear job on LDS, why'nt you get out there and defend our own church?

I mean, since you mentioned URBAN LEGENDS (!) it would be a good idea to let the world hear our complete refutation of all those Serious Writings (by really-together people like this "Tom Servo") that claim that:

1. Catholics worship the Virgin Mary

2. Catholics worship a whole pantheon of lesser gods, called "saints"

3. Catholics have a fertility cult of their own, centered around the Virgin Mother, Mary

4. The election of JFK was the lynchpin of a Catholic plot to take over the United States

5. Jesuits secretly worship Satan

6. There is always a secret underground tunnel between a rectory and any nearby convent

7. The Gunpowder Plot (England, 1605) was part of a huge plot by Catholics to take over England and kill Protestant babies.

Hey, I resemble that remark.
