I think they collect names on big computer in Salt Lake City. When they've got everyone's name the world will end. Or when the hard drive's full. I forget which. Boom. The Mormon genealogy library always reminded me of that old science fiction story 'The Nine Billion Names of God'. A lot of good research come out of that database, even though it wasn't what the church elders saw as the prime function. A lot of folks that follow other flavors of religion get mighty ticked off about the posthumous conversions thing, though. -- aem sends... |

OT - Toy Money
It's hard to explain. But, after quitting drinking 20 + years ago, all
the little things I barely noticed brought pleasure. A job well done, being kind to others, finding wisdom in the scriptures. It was as though my senses had sharpened or something. Or maybe I'd stopped dulling my senses. At the moment, my work horse flash light is a Mini-Mag with the one watt Teralux conversion. Gets used many times a day. Those chargable spot lights are fun, too. The internal lead acid batteries go dead after a while. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org ..

It doesn't work for some people and there are those who think you're trying to proselytize and push your religion just because of your little sig which I don't think of as obnoxious. My Protestant cousins can be so pushy at times that I want to track down my first grade teacher, Sister Godzilla, the nun from Hell and turn her loose on them. She might be 100 years old by now but she could still grab them by the ear or worse. 8-) TDD |
