More mockery of religions by Mormon missionaries

This sort of behavior is fostered, praised, and rewarded within their ranks.

I would say it is rampant.


I wonder if there was some serious arse kicking going on at the MTC lately?

In the last 4-5 second You can see and identify the location. It is an average ward building. The recording wasn't made up by anti's.

This stupid behavior isn't encouraged by the church or MTC. However it shows
so blatantly how little attention they pay to these immature kids.
Seems like they don't teach them anything else but indoctrinate them around the clock.

Oh geepers creeper golly gee willickers. A few 19 year old kids trying to have some fun and the sky is falling. Kind of reminds me of the antics of a supposed adult who is disaffected an goes by Boaz/PP.

It's disrespectful. I'm sorry, but when you place yourself up there as the be all and end all, you need to wear that mantle properly. The "one true" should not be mocking others. It's bad form.

That was the FUNNIEST thing I've seen in a long time!

It is disrepectful and ought not to be done. But it does not mean most of the 55,000 missionaries are behaving badly. Sometimes 19-21 year olds do dumb things, even 19-21 year old Mormon missionaries.

I didn't imply that most of them were doing that. But the fact that these young men felt that they could shows that somewhere they've gotten the impression that it's ok to mock other people's religion and style of religious expression.

I liked it. I am curious how a Missionary is posting YouTube videos though.

Porter....fostered? Praised? Rewarded?

I never got my reward for my good deeds in this area....is it candy?
