{Poll} Going to the Temple

By LDS Living

President Gordon B. Hinckley famously focused on temples – helping them to grow in number from 46 to 124 in his presidency alone. He also asked that Church membership try to get to the temple a little more often. President Thomas S.

Temples are making news

According to the website Google Insights, Internet searches for the word "Mormon" worldwide are at their highest level since late in 2007, when interest in Mitt Romney's religion during his 2008 campaign was at its peak. Volume is 88 percent of what it was at that peak. Doubtless, much of the current interest comes from the Broadway play "The Book of Mormon," the musical. (For those who haven't heard, this play isn't family friendly and, I believe, would offend most Mormons for its sacrilegious tone.)
