Aren't these 0.5 seconds the moments we live for?

There was just an NCD post about the Mormon Industrial Complex yesterday, so in this specific case, no.

At the rate the world is going, I would not be very surprised if in less than a decade the Mormons just actually did have their own nuclear weapons program.

Hell I would not be surprised if they currently, secretly own a decommissioned ICBM silo for 'emergency preparedness' (read: survival bunker for their most elite elects) reasons.
