Sobre IBD

What happens when a High Priest becomes addicted to crack cocaine? Should an unemployed bank teller take in a homeless protester from the Occupy Movement? Who is Salt Lake City’s newest superhero, a masked man wearing temple clothes who mysteriously shows up at crime scenes?Is there a way to splice the empathy gene into the genome of every human? Can a schizophrenic woman on anti-delusional drugs keep her belief in an intangible God? Will a childless biochemist find fulfillment by taking part in a mission to Mars?Not every Latter-day Saint has a mainstream story to tell, but these soul-searching folks are still more than the marginal Mormons headquarters would like us to believe.
