'avoid all loud laughter, light mindedness...."
Guess this keeps Bill Cosby, Seinfeld and so many others away from converting to Mormonism.

O'yes, simone. You see my greatness and glory and want to take possession of the whole of it.

Re: Comedians can't be good Mormons?
Actually, Joseph has an extremely good point here. How many successful LDS comedians can you name?

There's definitely a conspiracy going on.
Apparently LDS cannot be shrimp boat captains, either, because I can't name any!

I didn't say that LDS "cannot" be comedians. There are plenty of Mormons out there who try very hard to be funny. My point, instead, was about "successful comedians."

Yes Scratch, I get the irony and yes, that line was funny.

Well, re: my argument, you're pretty much a classic case in point, Nehor.

Yes, comedians can be good Mormons.
Remember, the comedian doesn't have to laugh. Just look at Stephen Wright or Mitch Hedberg.
