Great book. It's up there with the other Krakauer books including "Into Thin Air" and "Where Men Win Glory"

I concurr on all three Krakauer books. He is an amazing writer. My wife found the college rape book he did quite disturbing....
Though I should add that Under the Banner of Heaven said nothing about Mormons drinking beer on fishing trips....

Not sure if a lot of people know, there's plenty of Mormons in AZ (I didn't know prior to moving here). Our first house we lived in, each of the families to the left and right of us were Mormon. One family had 8 kids, the other family had 7.
They love having kids to grow their religion.
We donβt have Mormons but we have Amish. Are they the same thing?
*I hope none of my Amish neighbors read this and get mad.
The whole having a lot of kids has to do with the afterlife more than growing their religion. Anywhere there is a Mormon temple, you will have a lot of Mormons...all over Idaho, Arizona, Las Vegas, So Cal, Hawaii
What he said. In their religion they believe souls are trapped in heaven waiting to be brought down to earth, hence having a lot of babies.
Cynics might suggest that the religion can grow much faster with bigger families.
Regardless of why, they breed like rabbits. In their neck of the woods, look at RE listings. Many homes having 6 or 7 or more bedrooms.
Trapped in heaven? Until they can be brought to Earth? Where they aren't allowed to have alcohol, tobacco, tea, coffee, or drugs? Sounds like a blast.

Not really. Mormons would be closer to Menonites. They use cars, truck modern machinery, electricity, phones, etc. Most true Amish still only use horses, no elec., some do have cell phones, no Sunday sales at their shops, but will hire people to haul them long distances.
It was a joke.
It was an interesting two years in Utah. One of the local clothing stores advertised a "Missionary Starter Kit" consisting of dress slacks, short white dress shirts, black ties and rubber soled shoes for pounding the pavement saving souls.

Well now you have to explain it

Did it come with a sheet with a hole in anatomically correct locations?
That is some straight up hotness right there.

I think I'm in love. Does being a Robbie Bosco fan make me a Mormon?
That mom must have a clown car downstairs. Holy shit!
I thought he was using a euphemism.
One of my summer college jobs was on an assembly line. I heard one guy once say "..I won't go near her, she stinks in the woods".
I'm not sure how we got here.
So AJ Dillon is a Mormon?
Only if he drinks all of Kiel's beer when he takes him fishing.
When can we start ripping Lutherans.

When they quit being so fucking boring.
Why don't mormons have sex standing up?
someone might mistake it for dancing

What if AJ Dillon saw this thread ?
What if who saw this?
The Cards had a difficult time stopping this dude last night. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why he isn't used more at the goal line or in short yardage situations. I love Jones... he's a tough little shit, but GB needs to get Dillon out there more often in those spots.
They should have both out there in short yardage. They can motion one and see how the D reacts and then hand of to the one in the backfield or toss it to the flats, or a slant. Options.
I recall one time last night that they had both out there and MLF called a slick play with the inside hand-off to Dillon for the 1st. IIRC Jones went with a fake pitch.
Yeah, I don't get the reluctance to use him on the goalline. Even if you don't use him, put him in the game. You could fake that short inside handoff to Dillon then probably do whatever you want to the defense after that.
Maybe Duffner isn't 100% yet but I think if you have all three of them in on goalline situations there's so many things you can do.
Ball security is starting to become a concern.
Think that may have been a factor in MLF failing to utilize him more in the RZ.
As good as Dillon has been on short yardage plays for first downs, 33 really has a nose for the goal line and the EZ, regardless of that TD reversal. I think they have at least an equal chance in that situation. Put them both on the field. They can both pick up blitzers pretty well too so they wouldn't necessarily be tipping their hand on run/pass.

Or maybe go full house backfield with the Big Dog as a RB or H-back type. There could be so many options with that line up. Fake toss to Jones, hand off to Dillon or hand off to Lewis and let him blast his own hole into the end zone.
Both AR and MLF addressed it in presser ... said Cards had 8 d-lineman / ILBrs in the game daring them to pass. AR said he thought that if Deguara had gotten lined up correctly they were going to run a bootleg to his side where one defender would be required to play both run by AR and pass to Deguara based on look they were showing.
AR also said that they should have given the ball to Dillon down by the goalline.
