It is very well disguised as Christianity, with a few quirks (HOLY UNDERWEAR?) but on the inside, it is quite different.
The Mormon idea of Heaven is eternal burning (a little mixed up?), where men are gods, and women become goddesses that eternally give birth to 'spirit children'. Sound warped enough yet? Also, black people can't enjoy the 'rewards' in 'Heaven'. They apparently didn't do well enough in their 'past life'. (Adapted from "The Mormon Church Expose") HUH???

Blacks and Native Americans were not so much unable to go to heaven, they could but they would have to recycle a particularly long time in order to turn them white so that they could attain perfection and move on. The issue was more that they refused to grant Blacks or Native Americans the PRIESTHOOD. Conveniently, their highest authority received a "revelation" from God that it was OK to let those inferior beings do that now. Conveniently at the time where the feds informed them that integration was in and discrimination was out if they wanted to continue to receive federal money for schools and highways in Utah. God came through in a timely manner again, just like he had about the polygamy doctrine after Utah had been rejected for statehood 3 times because their laws and court system did not conform to our national and constitutional requirements. The Holy Undergarments idea was stolen from the Masonic Lodge rites, as were the symbols and passwords of the Curtain ritual they have. Women, so far, may NOT become goddesses. They can only be "Priestesses" to their men. But as I said before, it is believed that once the husband gets his own universe, Mrs. God and he continue to have physical sexual intercourse in order to produce the souls that will populate the new kingdom. No clarifications yet as to whether Mrs. God is allowed to "have a headache" or not be in the mood ![]()

I want to ask a question about Mormons,which may seem flippant and I'm not out to offend anyone if you are into religion whatever floats yer boat..Here goes..Why are mormon missionaries so shiny?..
We had two the other day at the door and I have never seen such a well polished couple of guys. Black suits,white shirts right off the set of MIB..but their faces with such a sheen..Jehovah Witnesses are never like that so drab compared to Mormons..Is it something they do to them in Utah before they ship them overseas..very curious. ![]() |

There's just so much pressure to be all... all perfect in Mormon society.

Either that or carrying the gene for Bipolar Disorder with Psychosis that was very prevalent in the earliest bloodlines in LDS.

Check the first chapter of the book of Mormon. That should clear it up.

It had to happen. The Mormons have been prowling around here for the past month. Today their conversion quest was not going well (hello, everybody is at work!) and they spotted me outside watering plants.
Basic premise was that even though I didn't believe in god if I'd prayed I was sure to feel something, they weren't trying to convert me, and when I asked if they would explain how they got to live on another planet with jesus once they died the poor guy floundered more or less. Lots of dancing around and explanations like "It's hard to explain" (why is one always silent?) and "It's compilicated" sprang forth. Almost felt sorry for them and never even got to ask them about Joseph Smith trying to read egyptian scrolls. I think they were chosen for CA because they could speak Spanish as they specifically asked (as another pair asked in a previous year) if I knew anybody around who spoke Spanish. |

My 76 year-old father was nearly converted due to the fact that they sent out three cutesy young ladies with gleeming smiles and long, dark hair to recruit him. He kept basking in their wholesome sexuality, visit after visit as they smiled and laughed and tried really, really hard to get him to sign on the dotted line. My mom, the Catholic with the twelve shrines to Mary in her home, finally had enough and was 'rude' (dad's word) to the girls and threw them out. See? Sex really does sell.

Damnit, why can't they send succubi to me? I'd at least consider converting as long as said succubi were betrothed to me.
