I feel the PLUR lingering..
I love Mormons they are so interesting to me. Never did me any harm unless you think being overly nice is an issue to be hung for.

They certainly have some far out views. Has anyone seen the South Park with the Mormons? It’s hilarious.

Their views are not that far out. God’s powers surely could have met the New World. The whole world is his in the first place. And seeing as how the ancient Mayans said their calender was given to them by a Bearded Man(Beards were not cool for these areas at the time.. But hmmmmm.. they were for Jews, like good ol JC) with pale skin.. Who road to them off of the ocean on a four legged beast (These were not native to the area at the time.. But a mule is a for legged beast ain’t it). Just a thought.. Some quick connections in history.

What do you get when you cross a Jehovah’s Witness with an agnostic?
Someone who goes door to door for no apparent reason.

Nice one, AL. I notice that Mormons and JWs go door to door frequently still. It was common for Christians to witness that way too back in the 70’s and 80’s, but less so now. Any comment?

I realize that you mean via DSL, but I would gladly give my phone number to many of the people here.
Edit: and I realize that you mean that many other christians are witnessing in that same manner.

I sure didn’t get on the internet to go about professing my faith, it’s kinda cool how it’s ended up that way. Ah the wonders of modern technology. I think one of my favorite aspects of interacting on the ol’ web is I can listen to music rather loudly at the same time.
Have you noticed that you can edit your profile now? I put the link in there for my MySpace page.

I confessed my computer illiteracy in that other thread, my boyfriend has one of those thingies, myspace site. He also manages my computer stuff for me so I can remain blissfully unaware.. (and completely uninformed). It also frees up my time so I can read every book ever written. That is one of my goals in life, maybe impossible, but please don’t shatter my dreams! I’ll have to learn Braille and every other language soon, I AM starting to run out of books written in English. (There he goes, making fun of the blind now, he is such a hater!) Can this kind of dialogue be done in Braille? just asking…Computer illiteracy, remember.

Here’s my favorite mormon informational clip I have no idea who made this or how accurate it is but i love it to death. it reminds me of the old hobbit cartoon. It’s weird how openly racist this religion was till god called up on the hotline in the ‘70s.
edit: i just noticed that you put a link up to your myspace page, AS. i love that you have that daft punk fan video for harder better faster stronger. two chicks, one permanent marker…

Here’s proof that we should all forget what we believe and join the next mormons that show up at our door. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ur_xV9ztFvg

I actually like talking to those people, if only to experience their mindset firsthand. One time they came to my door after we’d had a party and my friends and I sat there hungover and talking to them while they went on about the lord and read us passages. They’re nice, but too simple-minded. I feel like they never did any searching to find religion, like they just one day went “Oh, that sounds pretty good. Let’s stick with it.” It makes life simpler for them. They don’t have to ask the tough questions.
And why is it so strange to tell someone to have a nice day? You Brits are so stuffed up.

Very freaky videos there on Mormonism…
British giggle about how up-beat and cheerful Americans always seem to be…Perhaps thats why they actually love to visit the States,watch Yank films and tv…

It’s easy to be cheerful with sunshine and wide open spaces. Two things severely lacking in the ol’ U.K.

Absolute: that video is HELARIOUS!!! :DDD A little funfact- the reason why they talk about mormons a lot on southpark is because one of the guys who created it was mormon ;)
Vegan:Ive seen that clip a million times, I guess you c ould say it’s true but the way they say it just makes it seem like what we believe is so far fetched!
JT: I didn/t know thats where the mayans got there calendar from…hmmm…intresting.
Empty: Were not brainwashed =PPP
