Top Ten Things Mormons and Ex-Mormons Can Agree On

Post by _Runtu »

10. If you're going to put cologne on, at least wash your hands before breaking the sacrament bread.
9. That guy who played Joseph Smith in "Legacy" was really bad.
8. Your kids shouldn't be bearing their testimony if you have to whisper it in their ears.
7. Pioneer chapels and tabernacles are usually quite beautiful and inspiring.
6. Ed Decker is a dork.
5. The world would be a better place without Living Scriptures, Melaleuca, Arbonne, and Noni Juice.
4. There will never be any conclusive evidence for the Book of Mormon other than a testimony.
3. Richard G. Scott should stop his deliberate staring into the conference cameras. Whatever effect he's going for isn't working.
2. Articles of Faith 11.
1. Tom Trails rocks!

Mind if I keep going?

11. Joseph Smith couldn't translate Egyptian in the conventional way.
12. Katherine the Great is cool.
"Finally, for your rather strange idea that miracles are somehow linked to the amount of gay sexual gratification that is taking place would require that primitive Christianity was launched by gay sex, would it not?"

I love your top ten lists, John!

Remember when we used to write them on RfM all the time?

I think I liked our LDS Valentine's Gift list best. Also, your Top Ten Christmas Gifts for Mormons was riotously funny!

I'll add a few to this list.

13. That brown prickly burlap stuff on the chapel walls is weird.
14. The gooey casserole that appears at every Ward Potluck (the one that has tater tots floating on top) is gross.
15. The harder one tries not to think about sex during church the more difficult it is not to.

Where have you been, KA? I haven't been able to reach you at all. :(

Yeah, we used to have a lot of fun over there. I still post off and on at RfM.

17. J. Golden Kimball would be a hoot and a holler to have a [root] beer with.

LDS Prophets are just guys with opinions.
"We of this Church do not rely on any man-made statement concerning the nature of Deity. Our knowledge comes directly from the personal experience of Joseph Smith." - Gordon B. Hinckley

"It's wrong to criticize leaders of the Mormon Church even if the criticism is true." - Dallin H. Oaks

I returned an email from you about a week ago, John--I haven't seen another. I always return your messages. I like getting them. :)

In fact, I'll send you a message right now! Check your PM's.

I think that "hemp canvas" you speak of, is designed to discourage children from running their dirty hands across the wall or sticking their face direclty to the wall and doing a "blowfish" impression! Ha ha.

Kimbirley - you think about sex during the 3 hour block?



26. Peepstoning for burried treasure is not considered respectable employment.
