GodTube on Mormonism

While this frankly doesn't strike me as any more implausible than most other major religions, seeing this, um, summary of Mormon doctrine (much of which is out-of-date, I'm sure) is rather hilarious, in a scary Christian propaganda sort of way. I found it via Wonkette, who has some good commentary of her own on the situation:

Perhaps the Mormons were onto something with the long-disavowed polygamy of the 19th Century. Having multiple wives turns out to be good for the environment.

Don't trust me

According to a recent study at the Unniversity of Minnesota, I'm a member of the most distrusted minority in America. I said that to a co-worker just now, and he said "You're Jewish?".

Bad Air

Oooh, now I have a new excuse for not going to church. Maybe they should switch to soy candles?

The air you breathe inside a church could be doing you more harm than the air beside a major congested road, say researchers. Church air seems to have alarming levels of polycyclic hydrocarbons, these are carcinogenic. In fact levels of polycyclic hydrocarbons in churches were found to be higher than busy roads (roads with more than 45,000 cars going through per day).
