    I met one of the carpenters helping on the salt lake temple renovation. Is there no vetting on who helps rebuild this temple. This guy has all gold teeth and tons of tattoos, a mouth like a sailor and wreaked of marijuana smell. His presence in the temple is sacrilegious and shows he doesn’t care or understand where he is working. My ancestor helped build this temple and I know he is disappointed that his sacrifices in building this temple are being desecrated with those who don’t care at all about the temple being inside working on it.
