Creative Mormon Mythology

Chat about a topic supported by books, TED Talks, podcasts, personal experience, philosophies of mankind mingled with humor (shout out to IOT), and maybe we’ll even do a google hangout or conference call once a month.

Concerning Zelda: how could my missionary self ever imagine that one day I would consider the message I was taking door to door no more believable than what these kids are doing? Worse, THEY know it's not really true?

The Nephite Exodus

This land is mine, God gave this land to me
This brave, this golden land to me
And when the morning sun reveals her hills and plain
I see a land where children can polygamize.

So take my hand and walk this land with me
And walk the narrow neck with me
Though I am just a Nephite when you are by my side
With God’s own hand, I know I can polygamize
.

Butch Cassidy, seated and on the right. Sundance Kid, seated opposite on the left if I remember right. Two of the "Wild bunch."

Butch Cassidy is another guy who left the Mormon church. Heh

The second picture appears to be a group of more honorable, honest, and reputable men than the first.

Wear your underwear proudly! Whether your underwear hails from Fruit of the Loom or the Kolobian DriSilque Consortium, it will help protect you from unnecessary zipper injuries that stem from a lack of underwear.

I just googled the United Underwear Safety Council and didn’t come up with anything.

Just OSHA arc flash safety requirements that extend to socks and underwear, some Kim Kardashian ads, and extreme heat related warnings.

Maybe I didn’t spell it right.

A tapir's a horse
Of course, of course
And nobody can talk
To a horse of course
Unless it is Dr. Dan.


Chapel Mormons go yakkity yak
A streak and ask you to believe
But Dr. Dan will never speak
Unless there is a reason to deceive!

Historical Mormonism
Image
As you can see the map shows the Appalachian Mountains (a place where many Mormons hail from), as well as all the related mountains that were formed when the continents of Laurasia and Gondwana crashed into each other creating the Central Pangean Mountains. While this happened in 335 M BCE and thus was before the organization of the LDS Church, never the less, the priesthood given to the Trilobites had preceded this mountain range. Adam was the head of this first dispensation.
