Anybody surprised?

Yep, and since my ex-husband turned mormon in recent years, I've gotta wonder how much of our kids' inheritance is sitting in that hedge fund.

😂😂😂

Life is too complicated 😂

Empty your penny jars, and you will be blessed. Typical Mormon tithe

I think it's good for religious freedom , yet churches free from taxes are in bed with the Government and non believers are not part of their onesided council. Artist are the poorest paid profession and the longest and greatest influential in all of human history. We pay taxes, where are our bread crumbs?

I saw an elderly woman in FL throwing bead crumbs to the seagulls until I asked her at what point in her life had she seen seagulls eating bread or crumbs? She stopped, and I think she's the one with the extra crumbs you're looking for. DM for address in FL.

The Mormon scam started 40 minutes from me in Central New York. I’ve even been to the Hill Cumorah Pageant in Palmyra. What a bunch of looneys.
I’m never surprised at the lengths any organization will go to to hide their money.

Well at least they feel the need to hide it.

That's why they have the sacred baggy underwear.

It is redundant to say "The Mormon Church" and "Latter Day Saints" but their official name is LDS. Mormon is a nickname.

Their official name is Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Placing the nickname alongside the official name is not a redundancy, it's a clarification.

All churches have an unhealthy interest in accumulating funds, over and above any reasonable needs.

Hey... Saving people... Savings bonds... Close enough.

I'm not surprised in the least but some people on this site would want to turn this into a political party thing. You can tell who they are because they block you from posting on their stuff. That's conservatives for you. One way, Caesar. 🙂
