I liked the commercials from the 90s but then in high school i went right back to thinking they are culty freaks and weirdos. As I matured though, I came to realize Mormons are pretty awesome. I wish the Mormons and the Gays could just get along cuz they’re 2 of the most pleasant yet misunderstood groups ever.
Mormon.org is running commercials and for some reason this is news.
Oh, now I remember the “some reason”:
Is it all just a plot to get Mitt Romney elected? oy.
I had Fox News on today while on the computer and heard one of the anchor-babes sign out and introduce Neil Cavuto coming on next, followed by “the power of Christ compels you!” several times before any explanation or context was given.
And people wonder why I think Fox News is awesome…

Seventy percent of those affiliated with a religion believe that many religions can lead to eternal salvation. And only about one-quarter of those surveyed believe there is only one way to interpret their religion’s teachings.
Well we know one thing at least: the Trinity United is a chuch-o-jerks. In every one of these videos showing haters at the pulpit, they are met with laughter and applause and approving gestures and noises. Sad. I didn’t realize Catholics taught that it was cool to publicly ridicule and humiliate your opponents in a political contest.
Definitely the best part is when Mika puts a politically correct disclaimer out there saying she doesn’t want to judge Michael Pfleger or Trinity church cuz she’s white and Tucker doesnt miss a beat without saying “I do” and that it has nothing to do with “black or what” you dummy (my words), it has to do with hatred.
Steve Kreuscher has let his status as a denizen of Zion (Illinois, that is) go to his head and has asked a judge to legally change his name to the motto that backs our money: In God We Trust.
