[edit] Weasel words and references

This article contains a number of weasel words (prominant US heart surgeon? the untimely passing of his daughter?) and needs to be cleaned up a good deal. Also, it only provides two "references", both of which are LDS church related. I have a strange feeling that this article isn't quite legitmate. Shamrox 09:37, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I think this might be more a function of your ignorance of the accomplishments of Dr. Nelson. Tell me, when is a child's passing "timely". Exactly how would one state a parent's diffculty in losing a child? Since I have been in those shoes I can speak with a degree of experience; something I suspect you are completely lacking. It is very difficult, it is not timely, it never is timely. I also suspect you might have a personal bias when it comes to subjects that have anything to do with Mormonism.

Please explain how you came up with a reason for placing the category of Polygamists on this individual? (I notice that it has since been removed). Having a second wife after the first wife has passed away does not fit the definition. If you do not know the facts, seek them out; if you are too lazy to do so, please do not make any edits on the subject. I realize this is blunt, but you have demonstrated an extreme lack of judgement. Storm Rider ^(talk) 07:34, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
