Yep. I'm convinced the LDS Church harbors all kinds of crime, at all levels, for precisely that sense of "you are a member of the Church before EVERYTHING else, including nationality" mindset. Add in the "Lying is okay if you're doing it for the Lord" slippery slope, and you're suddenly above the law. I just wonder how much of a backlash will even happen if/when the financial and/or sexal abuse secrets are exposed, members are so brainwashed to ignore criticism of The Lord's Annointed.
