Mormon Facebook #
August 20th, 2008 | In Worth Considering
The weirdest — or perhaps most sensible — rumor you’re likely to hear today is this one:
According to Zach Klein and his valley sources, the Mormon Church’s Family History Department has made a bid to acquire Facebook:
I heard from an employee close to the deal that the Mormon church’s genealogy business made an unsolicited bid to acquire Facebook.
The Mormon Church maintains the largest genealogical database in the United States and apparently has the cash reserves necessary to make an offer of the magnitude necessary to acquire Facebook.
