OK

Joey JoJo Junior Shabadoo: Tasteless, smitty.


So... Spot on for FARK then?

Thomas S. Monson will be ordained the president of the Church within a week or two. One of the existing apostles will be called to replace President Monson's role as president of the Twelve, and another (or maybe the same guy), as a counselor in the presidency. Then, someone will be called to serve as an apostle. And someone will replace that guy, and so on.

The more you know.

Crap - and people make fun of Catholics...

I think it's a publicity stunt to get Mitt Romney elected.

The guy who shot Reagan?

Can't be - I didn't see the HERO tag...

pwhp_67: Can't be - I didn't see the HERO tag...

That's because he failed.

The guy behind the Watergate break-in?

7of7: That's because he failed.

*snert*

I call dibs on his stuff!

/bet he has lots of stuff

I wanna know what Mitt's reaction is!

Came here for the John Hinckley ref...got nothin' else to say.

Demetrius: I think it's a publicity stunt to get Mitt Romney elected.

I still wouldn't vote for Mitt.

/Mormon

Let me check my Give-A-Crap-O-Tron...

*beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeoooooooooooooooooooooooop*

nope nothing.

Stevo: "There's nothing going on. That's what I saw when I looked out over the city: nothing. How the Mormon settlers looked upon this valley and felt that it was the promised land is beyond me. I don't know, maybe it looked different back then. "

The guy on Greatest American Hero?

ZOMG does this mean Tom Crooze is the High Muckety-Muck now!??!?

I really enjoyed their commercials growing up.

/What's the capital of North Dakota?
//I will not cheat.

thats too bad, i havent been active in the church for a while now, but he was a super guy.

I think he did a little too much LDS...

The guy in charge of that church in Waco, TX?

Surprised no wisconsinite has posted this yet

Having been to SLC, and stood on the surrounding mountains I can see how the Mormons had a religious experience. It is a very beautiful site and I can imagine having traversed as far as they did in the time period they did, I can certainly imagine it being a trancendent experience. And then, they had a huge water source to boot. Until they tasted it of course..."DAMNIT PIECE OF shiat MOTHER farkER WHAT THE HELL IS THIS CRAP?!?!?!?"

My folks really liked him. They even met him a couple of times while doing Temple work in Salt Lake City.

He will be missed.

There's still people that think LDS have multiple wives? Yeah, they only broke off from that group of crazies a coupla hundred years ago.

/weak, subby

Very sad. He was a great man.

\Err wait, wrong cult?
\\All look the same too me
\\\What with their Jesus and Cthulhu

Say what you want, but he was an amazing man. Pretty much everybody who ever met him came away respecting him,.

Hinckley? Isn't he the guy who shot Reagan?

Sure... mock one of the few religions that HAVENT gone on a killing spree of late.

/Buddhists killed those poor monks
//with fire

peachpicker: I call dibs on his stuff!

/bet he has lots of stuff

makes me think of . . .

_PLOT!_

dibs on his dice . . .

Shiat.

My sister is Mormon.
I hang out with her at church all the time and believe it or not, they aren't insane and they DONT believe in poligamy...just like having lots of kids.
They are all really nice and pretty darn normal and dont try to force anything on weird, agnostic me.

/Just went to church on a sunday for the first time today

They've still got their own brand of crazy, making them fair game.

"LDS?"



/god damn you, Bith Set Me Up...beat me to it
//spent too long looking for a decent pic
///thanks, google, ya pricks

Larry King is sad, for he has lost a regular guest.

Calvin Coolidge: Hinckley? Isn't he the guy who shot Reagan?

You fail at originality....

Hinckley, like all other LDS officials, never received a cent from the church. They all hold outside jobs, and their work for the church is gratis.

Gotta respect that. Ask Oral Roberts where he got his money from ;)

Crap - and people make fun of Catholics...

What the Catholics do when their guy croaks is much funnier.

Bith Set Me Up: I think he did a little too much LDS...

You beat me to it.



Are you sure it isn't time for a colorful metaphor?

/weak, subby

Considering the fact that I spent most of my adult life as an active Mormon, yeah, I'm perfectly well aware that LDS people do not have multiple wives. The headline was an attempt to be the first to say it, with a healthy dose of self-effacement mixed in. Worked, huh?

/subby, obviously

If the leadership of other Christian sects were half as classy as this guy was, you'd hear a lot less kvetching out of everybody else.

Well, except the militant atheist true believers that hang out on the internet. They'll never shut up.

HEY! Cthulhu is nothing like Jesus! And when he rises again you and all your heathen kind will see that.

This. His kindness, generosity, and compassion were an incredible example of how to be a quality human being. I'm sure Farkers will find a way to tear him apart (there's no hate quite like misinformed Fark Mormon hate!), but he will certainly be missed.

Don't they have to decide who will fill his spot? Why Monson for sure?

I was hoping this would mean Utah would be riven with bloody wars of succession for the next 20 years, but I see in the thread that they've already got the successorship sorted.

Boring.
