- The debate continues over a proposed LDS temple in the northwest part of the valley. Channel 13's Joe Moeller looks into what Las Vegas residents are concerned about and how the church has addressed those issues at other temples in the past.
with God nothing is impossible.
I bet they wouldn't mind at all if it were a big casino...They sure don't want the Lords House among them to remind them of their sins...Let the Temple be built! It will beautify their area, and bless all those in the vicinity. And by the way I would wager that property values will go up!
Better than a casino a bar or section 8 housing. The crimes is the highest here in Vegas that I don't want a getho casino . Yes to Jesus!
U r wonderful.
Bless your soul
Crime coming now.when they move out😮
2 hours to the North, there is a similar temple in a neighborhood in St. George Utah.
The community might consider going up and seeing what it is like in that area To have a temple in such a neighborhood.
If there was a beautiful temple like that next to my house, I believe it would increase the value of my house.
Why do people who don't own the land think they can control what happens on the land they don't own. This is the United States of America. The LDS church shouldn't even have to get permission from the government in order to build on its own land. Citizens who don't own the property shouldn't have a say either. It's called private property rights, and it's enshrined in our Constitution.
I challenge anyone protesting a temple to go to the nearest temple and walk the grounds and the neighborhood it is in. You will change your mind. The temple closest to us was built first and then a lot of houses were built around it later. The neighborhood is beautiful, serene, and quiet. These buildings will be around for 100s of years.
But we can build endless giant casinos that cause huge traffic and are much, much taller as a whole than even their single planned spire.
Got it. It's a rural community that doesn't want more development to change the feel of their isolated neighborhood. I live in a small town and, as it has grown, have seen myself and others with me complain about the extra roads and noise and lights. I get it. Here's the sad reality though - some areas grow and develop and there is nothing you can do to stop it. So you either invite good and wholesome development or you get nasty and ugly development. That's just what happens when populations explode like they are in Las Vegas. So - let the temple come, let your houses quadruple in value - then sell and but a better home in a more rural place. I'm not mocking or trying to be rude, I'm just giving advice that works..... you cannot stop growth if you live in a growth are - so guide the growth and adapt. Hope that helps!
Cooperation is much better than confrontation.
That's literally all we have been asking for. Instead, the church has resorted to bullying and treating residents like total garbage instead.
@@ED-gl5jp No, that is absolutely false. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints does not do anything of the sort. Who showed up with the protest endeavor? Who put their dukes up?
@@Glen.Danielsen open your eyes. Fortunately, national media finally is.
@@ED-gl5jpOh thank you ED, I’ll open my eyes then. Your spurt is alert!
@@ED-gl5jp - NO- _STATE_ your case AND YOUR PROOF . Understand that fiery rhetoric is NOT a "Case" made , and the more empty ALARMISM , the *less* valid the claim .
Temples tend to be very beautiful architecturally....but would be totally out of place in a very low density completely residential area. Not to mention the increased traffic and light pollution. People seem to be focused on the height only, but this proposed build is a complete monstrosity in size and scale, especially for the area. If it were just the meeting hall, I doubt there would be such a pushback against it.
Their temples are all very beautiful. Can you find one example of their temples that are, as you say, a monstrosity?
Looks like PLENTY of wide open space & residential is not visible from the angle shown that has the sign about the meeting details 🤔😑🤔
Is the LDS Church breaking any actual laws? Or are community members just upset.
just community members upset i believe!
I wonder who was upset when _their_ houses were built.
They are either breaking or changing multiple ordnance/zoning laws. Some of these ordnance laws where specifically put into place to maintain a quiet natural environment.
@@nateman3365 No, Nate. The Latter-day Saints are not breaking any codes or zoning laws; the local council would never approve such violations. Tumultuous testator-tempestuous yet precious, restive resident: You see, the Latter-day Saints have been pushed and shoved enough in their epic history; they’re not inclined to endure manure again. Cheers to you though, sly guy, we can live and let live. 🙏🏽
@@Glen.Danielsen because you are the expert and know all about the local zonings!
This is some great reporting. I am one of the neighbors being impacted by the LDS Temple being built in Yorba Linda as highlighted in this story. The LDS church does not care about the neighbors impacted by these Temples. They bullied my neighborhood and the Yorba Linda planning commission, like they are doing in Las Vegas. Stay strong LV neighborhood citizens and fight the good fight.... and STOP THE STEEPLE.
You are not actually being impacted in any material way (other than your property value rising) you just want to control others.
@@michaelhutchings6602 ooh look!! More bullying!! Do you remember what President Nelson said last year about temples or did you forget already?
Tax evaders 😂
C'mon you guys. You wish to protect rural, yet no one has the right to be the last and only. What rural did your own homes destroy when they were built? Latter-day Saint temples are absolutely beautiful. Would a trailer park bookended by a pawn shop and a brothel be more pleasing to the eye? A temple will be a diamond in your desert. Cheers to you, good neighbors!
Why are such stupid comparisons brought up? Are you serious right now? A pawn shop in the middle of a residential area zoned RE? IDIOTIC.
I can attest that temples are the most peaceful places on earth. Having a temple near you will only brighten the community.
Amen
But if you're not a member of the cult, you can't enter the temple. Same with Hindu temples in India!
Thank you Channel 13 for actually covering the truth in what is going on across the country! Residents do not deserve to be treated like this by a church.
🤡
Say goodbye to any peace and quiet there!!! Isn't Nevada progressive? Well, this is progress!!!
very conservative, and Mormon-influenced politicians.
Yeah, right, they play really loud music and have really noisy parties there. SURE.
🤡
I am 100%PERCENT AGAINST IT
how come?
🤡
Total waste of space that can be used for something better than a cult temple.
Haha, oops, you got the wrong organization. Mixed up with Scientology.
🤡
Paint it black, if you want more people to accept it
Nahh.
Yay another polygamy building
Perhaps you should research your information...polgamy with the LDS church was discontinued over 100+ years ago. 😔
Yay, oops, you're WRONG.
🤡
@@sheilaboling610 wait Nelson is married to his second wife. And he is only practicing “polygamy” because of the temple. I think that this dude is right. Anther polygamy temple lol.
Build it and they will come i don’t know who will come probably someone you could get a few they then that nonbinary blue yellow red green purple people that would be kool
Yeah, I bet if it was going to colored rainbow colors and only cater only to the lgbqtr community, everyone would falling over themselves to have it built!!!!
🤡
