    My stake in Utah growing up had already banned rafting trips after a raft full of women tipped and they all thought they were going to drown. This happened between Glen canyon dam and little hole, where there isn't anything more than class 2 Rapids and you can almost stand up and walk in most places.

    "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

      • Good story. Didn't SU once argue that successful people didn't become Mormons?

            That's only because he won't read the article, where he could learn about the manipulations from the guy's daughter:

            “The first time we met he said, ‘Vai, you know what’s going to get me into the church? It’s going to be my daughter Alexa, because she takes great joy in torturing me by telling me, “Daddy, I’m getting married in the temple and you won’t be there.”’ … Then she gets out of the car at seminary and leaves him there in the car mulling over what she just said,” Sikahema recalled.
            It is a great story. Good work by Chad Lewis and Vai. BYU is an awesome missionary tool!

                  She gets a mention. Apparently there is hope she is sympathetic towards defendants based on religion.

                      That's been all the talk around here.

                      Their twin boys are currently on missions, and a younger sister goes to HS with my son.

                      Obviously as more time goes by, the chances of a happy conclusion shrink.

                          For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                          Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                          • What in the hell is a home school teacher? Nice to see that keeping their kids out of public school provided so much protection.

                              Sometime after being released from prison, Gillen moved to the Las Vegas Valley. He was working as a home school teacher through the Mormon church, giving lessons on Scripture, and had befriended the family, according to the prosecutor.
                              Early morning seminary teacher? No idea what else it could be, if it was actually "through the Mormon church."
                              Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                                No idea. Terrible journalism.
