Mike Allred, maverick comic book auteur, has plied his pen on such notable series as
Madman,
The Atomics,
Red Rocket 7, and *ahem*
X-Force.
Now, Allred, a long time member of the
Church of Latter Day Saints, has turned his attention to
The Golden Plates, a 12 volume adaptation of
the Book of Mormon (earlier discussion waaaay back
here), God's revelation to
Joseph Smith. Pick up a copy at your local comic book store or Mormon book store, crank up
Low's
Secret Name, and geek out, Mormon-style.

Interactive Church Music Player The LDS Church has created a cool new tool for exploring its hymnbooks: a Flash application that not only shows the sheet music, but allows transposition, tempo changes, part selection, and all kinds of other nifty things.

Two men arrested for handing out anti-Mormon literature. "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' and Salt Lake City's restrictions on behavior they deem "offensive" on the plaza are now the subject of an American Civil Liberties Union lawsuit before the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver." ... "The deed made it clear it [the plaza] was not a First Amendment forum..." Does the ACLU have a good case?

Make way for the Mormons :) Reports of religions' demise have been greatly exaggerated. The Economist reports, "[w]ithin four decades, one in 20 Americans may be a Mormon and there may be 50m or more worldwide. How will outsiders react to the next world religion?" Minivans, trampolines and canned food, hooray!

For the Mormons here at MeFi -- and, of course, anyone else -- the
Church is broadcasting a
Memorial Service nationwide, that is also being
streamed (requires Windows Media Player). I'm sure other national religious organizations are doing the same... so if you know of others, post them here.
