And nothing of value was lost
The man was a pioneer in modern heart surgery and helped with the creation of the heart-lung machine. Opinions on the religion aside, I’d say we definitely lost something of value
Brigham Young organised the massacre of hundreds of people, including children over the age of eight.
Its called the Mountain Meadows Massacre.
Fuck the Mormon church. Leading it in the wake of that pig is inexcusable.
That’s funny, I can’t find his name as a contributor on any contemporary reports of anyone creating a heart-lung machine. He popularized a specific usage of a specific type of stitch but that’s about all I can find
Right, Mormons do this all the time. They are so desperate to be the center of every universe.
The church rumor mill gave Ezra Taft Benson sole credit for the agricultural revolution that was actually started by Henry A Wallace (politically as Sec of Ag) and directed by Norman Borlaug. He did some good things as Ag secretary, but leave it to TBMs (true believer Mormons) to turn yeomans work into ‘hanging the moon’.
By the way, did you hear that Lionel Richie is hearing the missionary discussions and will be baptized soon? /s
okay politics and religion aside Borlaug is a cool last name
Thank you for saying this, I was working off fuzzy memory and took a better look this morning. While he was a very successful heart surgeon, I was incorrect saying he helped in the creation of the heart-lung machine.
Oh no. Anyway.
Hear about the shooting at the church in Michigan? (I think)
It was a Mormon church as well. Who the fuck shoots up a church? Don’t get me wrong, I’m no fan of organized religion, but come on.
It was a Mormon church as well. Who the fuck shoots up a church?
A conservative who is pissed that Charlie Kirk was snuffed out in Utah by a kid that grew up in the Mormon religion……….probably.
The “latter day saints” are Mormon, yes.
Maybe if people could stop being shitty to each other, there would be less violence. Sadly, most of our society now runs on being shitty to one another for personal gain.
When your body is a temple, every shooting is a church shooting!
Another pervert gone!
And hell gets another demon
They will act like there’s a divine plan, but the rules of the corporation state that the longest serving “apostle” will take over. That’s 93-year-old Dallin H. Oaks.
It’s a literal gerontocracy.
Who’s taking bets that the next one will embrace the Mormon moniker again
I’d pay two cents for every dollar bet that’s how likely I think it is
Oh well
I don’t believe in an afterlife but I do hope hell exists for people like these
I guess they have to change the lyric in The Book of Mormon the Musical again.
Sadly, he worshipped the wrong god — oops.
The best leaders lead by example.
Yay!
