The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Responding to original post as topic seems to have drifted a bit. I've been wanting something like this for quite awhile but haven't been sure how to go about it. Now I think the Google Web Toolkit would be a good way to approach it. The idea is to have a few fields a person could fill out, select f...
