      Before I start, I want to say that I am fond of the Mormon people. I have been thrust repeatedly into the bowels of the saints and have found no better tribe upon the face of the earth. So, let us begin with the wisdom of Sherlock Holmes. When you consider all possibilities and remove the impossible, whatever is left, no matter how improbable, is the truth.   We are all born with a “God Hole” in our brain. That strand of DNA that questions life and it’s surroundings. Man looks at a situation and asks, “Why?” And a child has plenty of choices as to the answer to that question. Most of the answers are bitter pills because life, in and of itself, is a bitter pill. Most of our lives we struggle to turn pain into pleasure. Pleasure and dopamine run out and we return to square one.   There is a rare individual who can find an answer, a rarer one who can keep the answer and the rarest who can convince others that he has the answer.
