        Mostly good as long as you don't take it too literally/seriously.

          Ah geez. Seriously?

          You start some really stupid polls.

            How are we defining the LDS Church?

            There are a lot of ways to go with this, but regardless of definitions, I'll say mostly good.

              It's a serious question. Is the world better off because Mormonism exists?

              I think central Asia (all the Islamic -stan nations) are better off because of Communism. I sort of view Mormonism the same way. It can be a positive influence in a very indirect sort of way.

                I agree it's a serious question. Very bad.

                      He's not my favorite. His batting average is not great but sometimes he knocks it out of the park.

                          is there a more smug person on tv? if bill maher was half as intelligent as he thinks he is, he might be watchable. his strain of lazy, militant atheism is weak minded philosophical cowardice. the world misses chris hitchens.

                            Not the same genre. But Hitchins wasn't exactly elegant or nuanced either.

                            Actually, the best part about this piece is just the raw LDS material. It's dismaying to know that a stupid and ridiculous person can actually become Dean of the Harvard business school -- to say nothing of his despotism -- though it's something I always feared might be true.

                              Bill Mahr is a smug unfunny asshat. But I suppose that is a fitting link for a thread like this.
