Ever wondered what happens if you're the religion writer at The Tennessean and there's just not much religion news this week? Call your local Mormon church. They'll give you a juicy story.

That's like going to see "The Life of Brian," and converting to Christianity.

"He was baptized Sept. 17 and feelings of complete joy and happiness washed over him."

Wait until he goes to the temple and tithing settlement...

There was a young woman who also converted to Mormonism after seeing the play. The Deseret News and KSL all did faith promoting stories about her. A year later, she was no longer affiliated with Mormonism. This guy will hopefully come to his senses.

The dude probably cant find a good Chriiiiiistian girl in his church because his a bit on the portly side probably is a bit stinky and likely has a dud personality( judgmental a bit?)

He could find an "old-maid" Mormon gal of 26 and start popping out kiddos... Fast forward 10 years, they will have 6 kids at the Cici Pizza Buffet chowing down on Saturday afternoon

The Tennessean is rather marginal in quality. Whenever I see a link pointing back to it, I have learned to ignore it and I live in Tennessee. They will print almost anything. The story is probably true. The value of the story is another issue. Cults love to promote themselves.
