Six months have passed since the last mass Mormon meeting, so today I arose early and drove up to attend the LDS church’s 178th Semiannual General Conference. The rain thinned the usually boisterous throng of protesters, which is good, as their provocations generally make me want to punch them in the face. My favorite crazy protester award goes to a hippie couple holding signs saying, “Save the World…Grow Hemp”. It’s true, it would be hard for bellicose fervor to arise from a nation of weed-heads.
The announcement of the day? We’re building a temple in Rome, Italy. Maybe just down the street from the Pope. Listen up, Catholics, we’re moving in!
