Founder of Mormonism was a con man before going on to form Mormonism.
I mean he was arrested and convicted for misleading people with schemes that were pure fraud.
Which makes him about the same as the rest of all historical religious leaders.

A good book (no pun intended) about it.

And it's soon to be a movie directed by Ron Howard.
It's got the Mormons all bent out of shape.

;D True story; Last time I had one of these morons (cuse' me, sorry; "Mormons") at my door (which happens a couple times a year), I asked one of them if they had an official "Latter Day Saints butt plug with their church phone number on it?" ...one of them just stared at me and finally mumbled something like "ah sir, I um, we, well I'm I'm not just exactly sure what you're asking, we don't do that, ahh, for...," so I said it again; "do you guys carry official Mormon church butt plugs with you?" At that point I just stood there staring at them until one without saying anything turned around and walked off leaving his buddy there on my porch with a sick almost panic look on his fast until the other Mormon shouted out "c'mon, lets get outta here!"
What I think scared the shit out of both of them is that I kept my right hand tucked behind the small of my back like I had something they DIDN'T want to see hidden. A couple of times during our brief conversation, I kept quickly, without moving my head, glancing my eyes to my right as if wondering if they could see what I had in my hand. :o HA HA!! Worked like a charm!
I used to keep a few pamphlets about Druidism that a friend of mine had made up by the front door just so I could tell them that if they wanted to talk to me about their god that I expected them to spend the same amount of time talking to me about the "true religion." All while insisting they join me for a cup of coffee. I didn't give out many pamphlets, but sadly they've been damaged too badly to use, and he no longer has the file on his computer to make me more
I know very little about Mormonism but my guru is a practising Mormon and he is a very groovy dude. He has never once tried to push his faith on me.

The jesus would love it. Eight year olds, dude.
I knew about Joseph Smith being a phony and "Kobol" (and that the guy who created "Battlestar Galactica" was a Mormon, hence the reference to Kobol, etc. in both series), but I had no idea about the magic underwear. Wow. If they're supposed to keep it on at all times, how the heck do they procreate? :)

My three attached photos on this thread have been replaced by a message "attachment deleted by admin".
I'm not deleting any attachments, but when I upgraded the forum several months ago I realized that there was a problem with there being two attachment folders due to some installation problems I had a long time ago. I tried to combine them but it may be a database issue that is still looking for the old folder. Or were these recent attachments? If they were recent then that's a bummer because I can't imagine why that would have happened. Unless some other admin got trigger happy.

Anyone else missing attachments? The only thing I can think of was what I said about upgrading the forum. But I thought I did that back in October or November.

Were these large files being attached? I ask because maybe there is a file size limit; it looks like they attach, but really don't, and then looks as if like they were deleted. Is there a file limit size a dude can attach?

Put any link to a photo in between these tags

Can what, C dude?
Your image has to be on the internet. Not on your local machine, on a website or a server with an http address. You can link to a file- or image-hosting site like Flickr, ImageShack, PhotoBucket etc; or you can upload stuff to your own Facebook or G+ photos and link it from there.
Here's how I link a photo of my dogs from my Flickr account:
[img]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8052/8119861420_d863ec65c3_z.jpg[/img]
So I uploaded the picture to Flickr, right-clicked it on the Flickr page, copied the URL and posted it between the [ img ] tags on the Dudeism forum Post reply form.
Here it is without the [ code ] tags:

I'm not sure which of the cults it is that hands out the Watchtower mag but I had an experience a couple of decades ago that I just have to report.
It was a weekday and I was sitting in my living room watching teevee in my skivvies. I was expecting neither visitors nor phone calls so I was surprised when my doorbell rang. Being as it was my day off I sipped my Caucasian and remained seated in my preferred spot in front of the tv. Figured I'd wait 'em out, maybe they'd leave.
A couple minutes go by and the doorbell rings again. This time I actually turned my head slightly to the right and looked in the general direction of the front door. Hearing nothing more I resumed watching the Tele Tubbies.
A couple more minutes and my reverie is once again disturbed by that fucking bell. This time I stand from the couch, walk across the living room and walk out onto my enclosed front porch. (Yes, in my skivvies). Standing outside the screen door are two white shirted fellas with their 10 speeds parked behind them who, upon my approach blurted out "good morning brother, I wonder if we might take a few minutes to speak with you about.....". I held up my hand in the manner of a cop stopping traffic.
Once I had silence I explained to these two cult members that I was right in the middle of sacrificing a goat but if they could come back in about an hour.....
Never have seen two guys wearing white shirts with ties and backpacks mount up two 10 speeds and ride away quite that fast.
