Sexy Mormon Men -- "For the first time ever, twelve of the hottest and hunkiest former Mormon Missionaries have dared to pose bare-chested in the first-ever Mormons Exposed calendar." They're trying to "help get rid of stereotypes." Previously mentioned

How can you even begin to compare Mormonism with Scientology? L Ron Hubbard was a manipulative barbituate addict with delusions of deity, whereas Joseph Smith was a hero blessed by Jesus himself with the power of Hat-Based Translation. Flagged as offensive.

I just love a man in uniform, and somehow, Mormons count (and I'm a Protestant!). I love seeing them get on the subway- white short-sleeved shirts, backpacks, name tags, looking all scrawny and pale. I know that I could completely devour them. So hot.

maybe Hot Amish Guys would work? Unlike the Mormons and the Scientologists, the Amish in my experience and reading actually seem to have somewhat of a straight head on about their alternative religious and societal views. Not that everything they do is great, but it's more of a thoughtful philosophical difference combined with a lot of tradition than a batshit insane difference from mainstream society. They do, however, tend to have a slight thing against getting photographed.

I'm with miss lynnster. I have the priests of Calendario Romano in my office with me right now (sadly, not literally) and I think he might even have to leap forward into 2008. I can't decide if it's the combination of whitebread american evangelicals that is a turn-off or each of those qualities separately.

amberglow: "hat-based translation" refers to the fact that before starting the church, Smith reportedly used a "seer stone" placed inside his hat to make predictions and find lost objects. (I don't remember if it was in the SP episode). it's LOLMORMONS not XTIANS, as technically, Mormons aren't considered part of the Christian religion. Has someone sent this link to Dooce by the way? She'd dig it.

it's LOLMORMONS not XTIANS, as technically, Mormons aren't considered part of the Christian religion. "Technically?" Every religious studies professor I've ever heard speak on the subject has included Mormonism to fall under the vast Christian umbrella. If you're looking at it objectively, of course they're Christians. The only people who make a point of excluding Mormons from the "Christian" label are some Protestants who also usually say the same of Catholics. Determining a strictly technical classification of the different sects of the world's religions isn't really their motivation there. It's just their way of saying they've got it right and the others don't. Since almost everyone thinks that, it's not really a great way to come to a reliable conclusion. And so I say that it is both LOLMORMONS and LOLXIANS. Double the pleasure.
