For lovers of New Era Mormonads: Apologistads!

Post by _Darth J »

The New Era is the LDS Church's magazine for teenagers. One of the ways the New Era uses to convey its messages is through inspirational posters that it calls "Mormonads."

Here's an example:

Since the Mormon apologist community is working so hard to defend the faith, I thought I would help out by creating some of my own inspirational posters, which I call "Apologistads." Below is the first in this series; constructive feedback is welcome and encouraged:

Nice work,
When can we expect the peep stone and cult magic poster?

Captures the hyper-defensive, vindictive nature of Mormon apologetics, combined with the pervasive persecution complex. A fine representation.

I don't think it's quite fair to put "seducers" in the same frame as Dan's face. I mean... really.

More! More! I particularly love the "absence of evidence" one. Can you think up one that shows how the "Nephites" keep shrinking, to the point where they're little more than a neighborhood gang?
We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.
