Come on, Sifters, I'm disappointed in you. Not defending Mormonism as a religion but this ad clearly says the roommates addiction is internet porn addiction which is not the same thing as just masturbating and, having known a guy who actually had it, (he got fired eventually because he couldn't stop watching, not even at work) I can confirm it is a real illness.

This ad is asking people to not turn their back when someone is clearly suffering. And that's a message I happen to agree with. No, I don't think Mormonism is likely to be the answer to addiction but I can get behind the idea of not turning a blind eye to someone else's problems, which is the message that is repeatedly conveyed here.

We must all be accepting of gays and their oddball practices, but Mormon? NEVER!

I ain't Mormon, but I know what is comedy and what is intended as comedy. And this ain't either.

Glenn beck is an absolute horror of a human being. He spreads ignorance, and feeds off ignorance. He does not endorse or support ,,gay marriage. Or marriage equality. He is also a Mormon, and just look up their history of supporting anything "gay". Glenn beck, Sarah Palin etc, and the ignorant people who follow them are the single most dangerous thing facing America today. Because of the massive amount of blind ignorance they spread. Ignorance, is indeed, the single greatest enemy we have today.

That's interesting because the Mormon stance on homosexuality is quite opposed to it

But anyway, bam!

and bam! (could have sworn this Rob Portman bit was on the sift, but couldn't find it)

I remember these two quite vividly because both flipped because they apparently had relatives that turned out to be gay and we were making fun of the common trope of how conservatives don't change their minds until it's something that directly affects them.

and also, depending on how you look at it, Barack Obama. at the very least he was neutral on support for same sex until relatively recently.

And these are just the ones I know about because they were on the sift recently. I'm not even counting the rabid anti-gay politicians who turned out to BE homosexual. While they may not have flipped necessarily, it renders any anti-gay stance from them extremely hypocritical.

so..it's already happened...and will happen more. I'm sure a lot will probably not technically flip...they just suddenly won't pursue any anti-gay agenda anymore and try to whitewash any anti-gay statements they may have made.

wrong. Beck is a Mormon and against government intervention in any type of social or religious contracts.

Do you have any examples of anyone who was against gay marriage who is now "flipped" and now for it? Or are you just making a prediction? If the latter, would you be willing to make a wager?

The title also works if you remove the second m in Mormons

One's spiritual path is simply that-One's. Seekers and non-seekers-All paths lead to all paths, it's one's imprints and socialization that fucks everyone up their own asses-Western-oriented Buddhists can appear as more whack than any Mormon-When someone reads the words, "I am the way, the truth, and the life" for instance, the words are still with god and of god...Takes' a human to fuck up anything righteous when they think to hard-

One persons love may look like shit to another-Jesus hung out with thieves, whores, idolators, etc-Try to get a born-again asshole to do THAT!

Salt Lake City has an odd dichotomy. On the one hand it's the heart of the Mormon church. And if you do go to the temple and meet one of their leaders, he will be an old white man who takes himself way too seriously.

But on the other hand it's also the most liberal and democratic leaning part of Utah. One recent example. Last Friday when the federal court judgement came which struck down Utah's same-sex marriage ban. Clerks stayed late at the County Clerk's office and ministers flocked to volunteer to marry the hundreds of gay couples who showed up immediately after the news. I know a very devoted lesbian couple who were married by the mayor of Salt Lake City that night.

As far as I can see, the only difference between the Mormon religion and most* others is just a question of age. But I -do- agree with you.

* I say most because there are one or two flavors of Buddhism that don't really seem to -be- religions, although they get lumped in with them.

Ah, the sweet irony; mormons being offended, when the tenet of their "religion" is an offence to intelligence.

Dude WHAT!? Noah's ark with some CG and Crowe as ol' gloom 'n doom?! Hell man, he fucks his own daughter before it plays out, give it a chance!?


I wanna see the cinematic version of ol' Joseph Smith and the Mormons fuckin' shit up...Let me cast THAT epic motherfucker!

Hmmm, Mormon comedy.

Interesting. Needs more study.
