that was likely involved in bringing the railroad to Utah. It's the way they're using Thor to make Mormons look crazy and gullible that bothers me. Also, what happened with Brigham in the last episode was beyond the pale.

The Mormon angle they're taking on Hell on Wheels is getting crazy. *spoiler*

My non member friend told me Brigham was smoking a cigar in the last episode

Good thing because they didn't have blenders back then.

No. He routinely drank Scotch as a sleep aid. As did a lot of folks.

Pretty sure he used tobacco his whole life.

It would surprise me if it were more than an occasional indulgence. He

"He drank scotch often". Do you think he used tobacco? No way!

If he used it as a sleep aid I'm not sure he would've considered it habitual

Obviously, the word of wisdom doesn't allow for scotch if used as a sleep aid.

The Dude Abides

Why wouldn't it? It says "strong drink" (Scotch for sure) is "not for the belly"

haha. Fair enough.

I don't think the WoW says you can use strong drinks to sleep.

The WoW wasn't the WoW as we know it until the 1900s

And it never says you "can't" use them, period. It's an informative revelation

lol. I'm sure my stake pres will be just fine with my whiskey use to get to bed

Well I'll agree us present Mormons don't follow the "Word of Wisdom"

mantis mutu

I can agree with all that.

Thanx for the chat, man.

Yeah, I think he was.

I think that is pretty accurate. He was a smoker.

Hell on wheels is a good show that went downhill ever since the Mormon agenda

Sort of like what Heroes did when they threw in the lesbian twist.

Heroes was great S1. I thought it went downhill fast after that.

I still enjoy it. I like some comedy in my drama series. The comedy in Breaking

It's still a decent series, but I'd rather see Bohannon after his familys killer

spugeddy24

I agree.
