OK as an ex-Mormon myself, I'm a tiny bit ashamed I didn't get those clues right off when reading the books. YES now that I think about it, it's truly fucking creepy.

Oh and if you want to know the scariest/weirdest Mormon prophet, do some research on Brigham Young. The fact that they named their Uni after him is pretty fucked up. That man was a full on whacko racist, sexist, bigot power-mongerer.
