He's a fucking amateur compared to the experts.
Mormons have hundreds of billions.
for a single televangelists he is one of the richest, he doesnt need to share that wealth.
P sure Gordon B Hinkley was the last pseudo decent leader those goofs had
Gordy was anextremely successful liar. He was responsible for the majority of the massive hoarding of wealth.
Ah, bummer. That's unfortunate as I actually met him (I was extremely young) and I remember him being exceptionally kind/welcoming to be around. Alas, history cares little for such memories and time must flow forward.
The lesser known history:
Gordy was moved up to an assistant to the upper echelons in 1958. This was right at the time Henry Moyle almost bankrupted the cult with massively overspending on building construction. Combined with the Baseball Baptism scandal they need somebody for damage control.
Gordy was a journalist by training who excelled at propaganda. He was a master of the craft. He buried the baseball baptism scandal and hid the financial records. For this in 1962 he was promoted up.
He was likely heavily involved in hiding the rampant sexual abuse issues in the cult. Hiding and flat out lying about how how much money the cult had amassed and excelled at being the slimy smiling bastard distracting everyone from the facts.
