(10,340 posts)Personally, I find the whole "Mormons sure have funny beliefs" to be a bit interesting.
Consider some of the beliefs that many Christians have - without even getting into some of the truly bizarre fundy ones:
- Raising from the dead
- Eucharistic turning of wafers/bread into blood & flesh
- Jesus walking on water, feeding 5000 people with just a few loaves and fish, turning water into wine, etc
And then we get into the Old Testament, which many Christians believe to be a literal history
- Worldwide flood, covering even the highest mountains
- Burning bushes that talk
- People being thrown into fiery furnaces, only to emerge unscathed
The list could go on and on.
If people want to believe these things, that's fine - but it seems rather odd to make fun of someone else's religious beliefs
