Fun with the Mormons!

[QC]

Given their unfortunate tendency to posthumously baptize the long dead and make converts of them, hows about setting up in front of the temple and holding posthumous gay weddings for their ancestors?

Maybe Brigham Young could end up married to 27 of the men in attendance, etc. (They would make an interesting counterpoint to his 27 wives.)

I am sure that the usual censorious prisspots who are always skulking in this forum and telling us what we are allowed to say and do and think will object, but you have to admit that there is genuine comic potential in this.

1. Ask the mormons if they feel superior after what they did

to the white people that they massacred on the mormon trail

5. Mountain Meadow Massacre

They killed all but youngsters below the age of 12 and then gave those children to Mormon families to raise. The victims started out in Arkansas--there is a memorial stone to them on the courthouse square in Boone County, AR, which relates the entire story.

9. On the web site telling about it they said that they killed

babies that were held in thier mothers arms.These people are a vicious cult and their history and their leadership in Salt Lake City is atrocious.They have no right judging anyone

2. You are evil.

I *love* evil.

I don't think is especially true but I have to congratulate you on your phraseology. I always congratulate; then I steal.

3. I like it! n/t

4. My family has been a victim of this baptizing practice

Someone who is affiliated with the LDS Church mined my genealogical data and baptized everyone on it, including my mother, who is very much alive and very much offended. I found who did it, emailed them, and received no answer. I emailed the LDS Church, who did nothing.

To my mind, making a gesture such as you have suggested would be something that might be effective. I'm tired of LDS Church members thinking they can do things to others without their permission. My mother is still fit to be tied over what they did.

8. One of my cousins got suckered into that cult in the 70s,

when her mother had just died and she was especially vulnerable.

She got baptized for all of our ancestors, and quite a few other people's too.

The poor dear later went to Brigham Young U. for a while, but left when she saw how angry her professors got when she asked too many questions about church doctrine. They don't like that whole questioning thing.

6. Look up mountain meadow massacre that was carried out

by Brigham Young and his followers.They murderered women and children and babies in thier mothers arms .It happened on the way to California when a wagon train was stopped in Southern Utah by the mormons and tricked into being killed.At least 120 were murdered

14. My g-g-g-grandfather and his gang of thugs did that deed, it appears.

They were in charge of making sure things in Utah went the way ol' Brigham wanted them to go, if you catch my drift.

7. I love it

10. That's

hilarious. :rofl:

11. Well, I would be willing to marry Steve Young, but he's still alive

and I doubt that he would consent.

[LeftyMom]

12. That is a fantastic idea.

:thumbsup:

13. I can't take full credit. I saw a passing mention of it here or on another forum

and let my imagination go.

15. How 'bout a Kiss-In

Fine young gay men dress up as Mormon missionaries and kiss in public places?

The ladies can make out with their "sister wives."

Can't take credit for kissing missionaries, that appeared in another thread.
