You can't punch Mike Wallace, he's protected by the Heritage Building and Historical Site Act.




(edit) Ah crap, that's croft. There goes a complete waste of a geriatric joke...

Aemaeth
downvote on your comment for gross vagueness.

you say, "True until 4 minutes in", yet do not mention anything specific that you take offense to or disagree with. BE SPECIFIC.

There was nothing negative in this video. perhaps you did not watch the video presented above, as it is a PBS Frontline documentary, and has nothing to do with me ( you say, "as presented by the poster")

you say, "None of the so called experts are members of the church"
please read this page which lists who Frontline interviewed and then please retract your comment. http://www.pbs.org/mormons/interviews/

Prior to joining the Quorum of the Twelve, Holland served as the church commissioner of education and later as president of BYU.

You then bring up a story about Mike Wallace (without sources) which has nothing to do with this video. I personally think your quote is rubbish, back it up with a source.

your not starting an arguement, your just being overly vague and bringing up unrelated storys

I have to say this sift makes me quite sad. Most of the video was true (until you get to about 4 minutes in), but the way it's presented (by the poster) is so negative that it's hard to get any unbiased message from this video. I do find it amusing that none of the so-called experts happen to be members of the church and also that they all seem to have such an attitude of disdain.

Mike Wallace interviewed the church president years ago. He was asked by his producers to adjust the show to show something shocking and negative (to dig up some dirt) to which he reply there was nothing to be dug up.

I don't mean to start an argument with anyone here, I just want to suggest that this is a terribly biased representation of information.
