Men in black
An indication of the growing chill between Russia and the West is an article in a Moscow-based website called Interfax that alleges that Mormon missionaries are spies.The transliterated story is pretty hilarious, here's the headine:
CIA agents in Mormon disguise are probable to work in Russia, a renowned sect expert believesSpeaking to Komsomolskaya Pravda, president of the Russian Association of Centers for Religious and Sectarian Studies Alexander Dvorkin sounds like the Cold War cartoon spy of The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show
, Boris Badenov:We have been informed that American Mormon missionaries were detained on the territory of secret military facilities more than once. They are accused of having CIA connections, and it is reasonable.Dvorkin says the LDS Church, which he describes as a "rich transnational corporation," is buying up the Russian fishing industry.
All I can say is — it is reasonable.

Don't know about fishing, but LDS missionaries have provided intelligence info to the CIA in the past, especially in South and Central America in the '60s-'70s.
Not rumor, fact.
Interesting. Where/how can I verify that fact, anonymous?
That's an old wive's tale.
You are so full of crap. Anyone who needs to clarify a tale by saying "not rumor, fact" is an uneducated moron.
