George Albert Smith was also a prophet who dedicated the temple in which your parents were married.

Did you donate to the Hitler movie?

Neil and Diana said...

yes, there are many interesting similarities between the two men (time period, occupation, etc).

Emily said...

Neil and Diana said...

por que no cigar??

Neil and Diana said...

actually, i think "seer" best clarifies the common ground.

Emily said...

Okay, I'll concede GAS 1 was a seer. And no cigar 'cause he didn't smoke.

Are we sure GAS1 didn't smoke? The early Mormons had a rather different level of adherence to the WoW.

"The one most notable exception was when [Smith] tried the faith of the Saints by riding through Nauvoo smoking a cigar just after having preached a discourse on the Word of Wisdom."

That's goin in the movie!

i can't see the prudish boy scout gas1 smoking anything. anyway, i think he's late enough that abstinence would have been firmly entrenched by his reign.

Neil and Diana said...

prudish ..and sickly.
