The End Days
The candidacy of Mitt Romney has brought attention to some odd Mormon practices. Armageddon is apparently something that figures prominently in the religion. They have stored 9,000,000 bushels of wheat in 60 silos around the country. Mormon families are encouraged to have a year's supply of emergency food on hand.

And the humor of that is if there is an armageddon then the people who need the grain are the ones who didn't get called to heaven, right?
I don't think they thought this one through.
Genealogists are grateful for them.
Me again: The Mormons believe that if you convert to their religion, you can convert your dead relatives also so they keep lists of people and their relations to each other - very valuable to the genealogists (who annoy courthouses and libraries all over the US). I didn't know if you knew this and I apologize if I stated the obvious.
