I was going to post the one about Drumpf as a mormon missionary but I would probably get smited by admin.

The current occupant of the White Houses' last name when his family first came from Germany.

Apparently some people are unable to accept the fact that an ancestor of Donald Trump changed the family name well before Donald Trump was born.

Kind of like you not using your last name, either :)

I didn't even know he was a member.

H.T. "A blast"?. I don't think I've ever heard that before.

Instead, as it appears to me, it seems to have always been thought of as a chore that has to be done, and even (in some cases), avoided.

For those who are unaware, this was originally a propaganda video produced by the church of Scientology featuring Tom Cruise, complete with the quasi-mission impossible sounding theme song in the background.

I don’t know exactly what this video is meant to be, but it seems like it is more mocking the concept of home teaching then it is poking gentle fun at it. Especially when the guy Asks if 100% home teaching as possible and Tom Cruise goes into peals of laughter.

Both videos are funny, if anyone here wants to look up the original one with the Church of Scientology. Apparently when it came out they tried to walk back the whole thing or a claim that the video have been edited with the soundtrack in the background, but I’m not 100% sure on all of that. I do remember how weird it was, though, and how weird it still is.

. . . be it Scientology or Mormonism (in this case, specifically, the latter).

Since Mormonism operates on the fundamental principle of separating people from their money and does so by:

preaching, teaching and practicing primordial sexism and racism;

by openly lying about and rewriting its sordid history;

by shamelessly promoting an virulently anti-science mindset;

by ruthlessly demanding unquestioning obedience to authority:

by relentlessly discouraging intellectual freedom; and

by systematically suppressing and punishing individual expression, honest questioning and natural inquisitiveness, then the best humor to use against it is humor that cuts quick, cuts hard and cuts deep. Irreverence for the irrational. Mock on!

In the end, this is not some kind of gentle game. This is a war for peoples’ lives—lives that are irreparably damaged and destroyed by Mormonism.

Welcome to the rumble. If some folks can’t stand the heat of the humor, then they should get out of the kitchen. Forget all the “true church“ nonsense. What’s important is to be true to yourself

What I meant was is that I don’t know if this was produced by church members to make fun of home teaching, or exmos... Making fun of home teaching.

That would amount to engaging in light mindedness, loud laughter and evil speaking/editing of the Lord’s formally-anointed program of homepreaching, er, teaching.

Most likely, the vicious vid was satanically inspired and then outer-darkness produced by chain-smoking, beer-swilling, card-playing ex-Mo merchants of malevolence or other sinfully-spawned degenerate non-saints who were miraculously sired through the spirit of Satan and his web of wantonly wicked wives and then sent from the underworld to reign with blood and humor on this earth.

Enjoy the show, folks. They’ll be here all week, or until maybe the thread fills up.
