LemonBooya kittylin serenmarie reviving an old thread. Here in the little town I grew up in one of the preachers taught his congregation that Mormons will eat their last supper on Mars and eat aborted catholic babies. Nice huh? Woah! How can people believe stuff like that? It's ridiculous to believe, but I'm impresed with whoever's creative enough to come up with something so random as that. I heard a prety funny missionary story one time. There were these missionaries, and they were discussing the progress of one of the couples they were having discussions with to a priesthood leader, and one of them said, "I'm afraid that after what we told them, they'll never want to join the church now. I'm prety sure we've just driven them away." When asked why, he replied, "Well, we were giving them some scriptures to read, and instead of telling them to read 1 Nephi 3:7, and instead, we accidentally told them to read 3 Nephi 3:7." Oops! Wonder what weird things they must've thought about Mormons after that! No, they probly did damage controll. I gave the wrong scriputre once, and the person I was teaching ended up reading the whole "book" (not the book of mormon, but the section). They found it fasinating. And was baptized. the holy ghost teaches so much more than a missionary ever could. Taken out of context we can prove anything or disprove anything we want using scriputrues.

One time I was coming out of the temple after a session and this non-member stopped me and said "I saw you go in there with a baby. Where is that baby? Did you sacrfice it to your god? I see people go in there with babies all the time, but those babies never come back out again. You must be sacrificing them."
I just thought that was the weirdest thing I have ever been asked being a Mormon.

My teacher asked me if all Mormon girls had to have long hair....but i don't blame her much because most mormon girls i see DO have long hair smile . And my friend told me that someone told her that mormons keep nucs in their temples and throw babies out the windows O_o humans have strange imaginations about places they cant go in...but i wonder if that was just that one person that told her or people in gereral....

lol that's funny! I still wonder about the people that say we're not Christian. I think my violen teacher (i had, we got too poor so i dropped the lessons) said that you had to beleive that God and Jesus were 1, but i'm not really sure if that's her religion or in general...

I was talking to this one guy in a math class and I told him I was Mormon and was raised that way, and he said "So you were brainwashed by your parent's religion?" lol

Gunslinger Matt I was talking to this one guy in a math class and I told him I was Mormon and was raised that way, and he said "So you were brainwashed by your parent's religion?" lol Some people really believe that too. My sister told me of a time where she and a few of her friends were on a plane coming home and one of them had a BYU sweater on. Some guy behind them asked if they were Mormom and they said yes. They didn't get into a discussion or anything, so they just had a pieaceful flight. My sister even fell asleep. At the end of the flight, he told one of them that he spent the entier flight praying for their souls because they only believed in our religion because of their parents. My sister was still out of it at the time(which was good since she's got just as bad a temper as I do) so she didn't quite catch it. her friend told her what he said when he left and she started to laugh histerically. She attained her faith out of the house and away from our parents.

What is this with sacrificeing people and babies in temples? I'v never been asked that, actually. But my history teacher said/asked that becuase the males are the head-of-household, are the women slave-like? I nearly laughed, and wanted to say that if you ever come to my house, you'll see who's really in charge.
Oh, then there's that whole thing about "when you get older, if you don't get married and have at least 5 kids, will you get kicked out?" In varying degrees of seriousness. (I'm oldest of 5, almost 6)
