Damned Mormons

[Clueless Morgan]

Intellectually, I understand all religions are effed up, but damn, the Mormons just seem so much MORE effed up than most all the others.

I watched this the other day




and my BS detector was going off with some of the stuff the BYU guys were saying. They came off like apologists, agreed that they were no-true-scotsman-ing virtually every example of Mormon behavior and every Mormon stereotype they were being given to address and I wondered if they weren't engaging in the practice of lying for their faith a couple of times - particularly in their claim that the LDS church only does baptisms for the dead when they have permission from the family to do so.



I waffle on my opinion about Dave Silverman, I think he could have done a better job here and that he was being a little obtuse in a couple places, but these BYU guys had "fishy" written all over them.
