Got to love this one:
The U.S. Republican Party was formed in 1854 with the platform of aboloshing the "Twin Relics of Barbarism: Slavery and Polygamy". 150+ years later, a majority of LDS Church members now support the party that was orignally formed to destroy the church. Gotta love irony.

Remember this guy?
The first "Bleep" of a swear word over the radio was J. Golden Kimball in his talk on the first radio broadcast session of General Conference.

The word "smith" means to "To beat into shape; to forge". The name "joseph" means, "God will increase". So if you were God and wanted to rebuild your Church you would want someone who would forge it into shape and increase it. In other words, you would want a joseph smith

Is Joseph Smith mentioned in the bible?
Isaiah 54:16
Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
