Reader responses regarding "The Mormons" PBS series
I thought the two ex-LDS women were out of line. They talked about things that are held to be sacred, not "secret", as the program suggested. They obviously had an axe to grind and were given that "biased" opportunity by the media. Some of the information was accurate but overall I think the telecast did more to harm the image of the church than it did to benefit it. no name
Generally, expositions of the Mormon church are 100% inaccurate, bent, exploitations of hearsay. This one was only 89%. Now that is real progress!
The quote that went something like this: "We (Mormons) should get an education-but we must dance" still gives me a chuckle.
Someone must be very concerned that Mitt actually has a chance. Tap dancing in Farmington, Dee
I watched the majority of both nights and found it less than expected. Interviewing excommunicated members about the church is a bit like interviewing former BYU football players who have been dismissed from the team and school for honor code violations about the current state of the football program. Far too much effort was put into negative aspects. Glenn Barton
