You miss the point entirely. We Irish Catholics and our ancestors have paid
for every brick and stone of every church in Ireland We paid for the paper,
the ink and the printing together with the living expenses of those doing
the writing. I suspect that very few have contributed to the LDS. The LDS
gives us the results of its work at cost. 'Our own' want to charge us many
times all over again.
