Merriman told the Deseret News in March 2008 that he had collected 56 of Rembrandt's 70 religious prints, some which were on display throughout The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints buildings in Denver last year. LDS spokeswoman Kim Farah said Merriman has served as a bishop in the church, but she did not say when or for how long. Bishops lead neighborhood congregations, similar to pastors in other faiths, LDS spokesman Marc Stevens said.Rembrandt's "Biblical Etchings" Exhibit at LDS.org

Authorities say Merriman had several classic cars including a silver Aston Martin, 1932 and 1936 Auburns and a 1932 Ford Highboy guns, taxidermy and artwork that included Rembrandts and other Old Masters. Gotta believe a number of those guns had gold triggers.

It’s amazing that with a Church full of Prophets, this one is so subject to schemes. It brings to mind the Hoffman affair.

A Mormon involved in financial fraud. What a shock!

I met with a pair of LDS missionaries yesterday for an hour of conversation.
I was very impressed. Good kids. Great attitude. Convicted. Intelligent.
They are going to visit again in 2 weeks.
Bless them for putting up with my endless queries.

Hmm, reminds me of another guy who bilked his fellow Mormons out of millions...
Maybe they can be roomies at the Federal Country Club.

Ex-Mormon bishop . . .
This is news.
I didn't know the ex-Mormons had bishops.
To: Alex Murphy
This surprises me since I’ve always thought Mormons were pretty honest.
