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

That was bizarre.

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.

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

8/31/15 10:48am

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

mantis mutu

haha. Fair enough.

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

spugeddy24

8/31/15 3:56pm

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

8/31/15 4:03pm

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.

8/30/15 7:55pm

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 don't mind them including Brigham Young and depicting much of the politicking

8/30/15 7:59pm

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

8/30/15 8:02pm

I agree.

JAGA97

8/30/15 8:06pm

totally agree. it was a great show, but has gone downhill, badly.
