So what are things which mean one thing to gentiles and quite another to Mormons?

In the above post linked I came up with a couple. They were leaving Mormons only can mean two things - offenses + sinful desires and gentiles who want nothing to do with Mormonism means "they just don't understand."

Are there more?

Mormoncodes:


Mormons: Definition of "Secret Combinations" -- a furtive society of evil-doers intent on carrying out their dastardly plan.


Non-Mormon Definition: "Darn, I forgot the numbers to my gym locker again!"


Here's another:


Mormons: Definition of "Cafeteria Mormonism" -- the narrow zone between facts and actual doctrine


Non-Mormon Definition: The unappetizing "shit on a shingle" served up in Ward Houses every Sunday

The codes are far too sacred to talk about since we are not in the temple.

You probably will even want to know our secret names, and will feign a handshake.

Who in the hell is saying that Friberg is equal to da Vinci? If anyone is, then they are a major idiot. Even my extreme TBM mom wouldn't say that.

My mother has no clue who or what Friberg or Davinci are.

Pot luck.....In the real world it's a dinner that everyone brings food to share.

In the Mormon world, it's date night and an opportunity to get rid of food your family won't eat.

HA!

Arnold Friberg = artist

Leonardo da Vinci = artist, sculptor, mathematician, scientist, inventor, and one of the greatest minds of Western Civilisation

Mormons are delusional.

It was just a hypothetical example.

By their dollars you shall know them. How many homes have Arnold on the wall but not real art? Remember Mormons will read Stephanie Meyer over Jane Austin and James Talmage over Dante Alighieri, they will listen to Janice Kapp Perry over Bach and take advice from Tom Monson but give you a blank stare if you mention Immanuel Kant.

Your hypothetical example is brilliant.

The use of the word "gentile" to mean non-Mormons, for one. Traditionally, gentiles refers to non-Jews. ;)

In momo world - prophet, seer and revelator.

In real world - CEO

In momo world - porn addiction

In real world - looking at nekid pictures

In momo world - sacred

In real world - made up shit

In momo world - garments

In real world - what the hell kind of underwear is that?

New name......Something women get when marry.

If you're a Mormon, it's something that you're not supposed to tell anyone lest they slit your throat and gut you like a dead deer.

These are great!

I guess I don't know many Mo-codes. That's what I get growing up in a ward with more converts than BIC.

Well, they are a peculiar people (which means very elect btw.)

Oh I know that one of course.

Great & spacious building (which we Exmos all know is COB)

Mormons: "Calling and Election Made Sure" -- to have the unconditional guarantee of exaltation in the top tier of the CK


Non-Mormons: The day after a civil election, when all the votes have been collected, counted and certified.

Mormonspeak: "The Last Dispensation": -- the culmination of all that has come before re the plan of salvation - as delivered by Joseph Smith

Non-Mormons: "The Last Dispensation": -- that moment when you realize you've run out of mustard when the plastic jar makes a kind of farting sound.


Mormons: "Second Estate" - Latter-day Saint term that refers to mankind's mortal existence on this earth.

Non-Mos: When grandma leaves you grandpa's old rocking chair in her will.

You are too good at this. You must have the blood of Lehi in your veins (which means you are from the tribe of Manassa)!

Stake house? We've always called it a "stake center" around here. Equally stupid name of course.

So where is the "Center Stake"? SLC?

Great list. All dripping with double meanings for Mormons. No wonder CogDis is easier for some TBMs.

Personage? I have never heard that from anyone not LDS.

Madalice - in Colorado, Pot luck is the new law.....hip hip hurray!!

BIC - for Mos is Born In Convenant, right?
To me it is a lighter or a pen.
