[The Weenis]

Not to be insensitive or anything, but I’ve studied a lot of religions and to my outsider’s eye, Mormonism seems very bizarre. They believe that this guy, Joseph Smith I believe his name was, received the word of God from an angel named Moroni while he was hanging out atop this mountain called Hill Commoragh, which is located outside of Rochester, NY. The angel gave him these heavy gold tablets which were like the ones Moses received with the Ten Commandments. How he ever dragged these things off the mountain, I dunno, but apparently he did and formed the Church of the Latter Day Saints, or the Mormons. Mr. Smith and his acolytes got hassled for their beliefs by the upstate New Yorkers, so they took off, en masse, for Salt Lake City to get a litle peace and freedom. Mormons believe that no woman can get into heaven of her own accord; a female can only get into heaven if her husband is good. They also practiced polygamy but outlawed it among themselves in order to be accepted into the United States. Mormons take marriage very seriously because for them wedding vows are not broken, ever; even after death two married souls stay married. A Mormon’s standing within the Church is considered very important, and more often than not their ranking withing the church is directly corrolated with how much money they give their church. I heard they have to wear funny underwear, too, but my Mormon friends are very mysterious and dismissive of this. The stockpliling of food is done so that when God comes back and wipes out the evildoers, (read, non-Mormons) they will have food after the apocalypse. Highly religious Mormons believe that they are chosen by God and that at the same time God allows them free will. This is the neat thing about Mormonism. God says: You’ve been trained to know what is right and what is wrong, so go do whatever the heck you like, remembering though that your choices will reflect on your admission to Heaven or whatever. Hope this was helpful. Sorry if I offended anyone.
