“They are germane only if all Mormons behave this way. “
That is clearly a false statement. These issues are germane if the subset of Mormons who are in power positions behave this way. Since I have come across these attributes in heavily Mormon Nevada on many more than one occasion, I am arguing they are decidedly germane.
And your disdain for Nevada as corrupt supports my contention - Mormons have long been the enablers of the casino industry here as anyone with a sense of local history knows. Also, Utah tops the list for white collar crime. So please don’t trivialize my concerns since I have been up front and personal with these problems for quite a while. I work for a hedonist Jack Mormon, I helped start a $30 million business with a corrupt Temple Mormon who is being turned into the IRS, I am deep into the back story on the corrupt dealings of Harry Reid and his (jailed) Mormon convert Dario Herrera, I have been around two other multi millionaire Mormon concerns which also displayed these tendencies. And I have more personal stories than even this. So to act as though I am flying off the handle for no reason, is quite foolish.
