Big Love is one of my two Sky Atlantic Guilty Pleasures, the other being The Borgias.
But after an episode in which the central family sang Amazing Grace, we have just had one in which the imprisoned prophet sang The Battle Hymn of the Republic, and his followers celebrated his release with what I had always assumed was a quintessentially C of E hymn, Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee.
Do Mormon polygamists, or any other Mormons, really do this? How can they possibly? "Holy, Holy, Holy, merciful and mighty, God in Three Persons, Blessed Trinity."

Those women definitely dressed like the CofE, or the way it was when it still sang hymns like that.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see another "Big Love" fan out there. I don't know how accurately the show depictied Mormonism, though.
ReplyDeleteMy understadning is that the mainline LDS church was not happy with the creators over a number of issues.
