PSA- Be Nice to Mormons




I must profess that we came with the idea because I heard that either a Mormon or Jehovah's Witness protylitizer was murdered after knocking on the proverbial wrong door in Newport News, Va. But, I couldn't find any info about the strangest of homicides.

Sure, it's annoying to have anyone protylitize to you, but there are creative ways to get rid of them. You can tell me you recently converted to Zen Buddhism and see the look on their face as you tell them they are interupting your meditation time.

I also found out while researching this piece that last year feds arrested Benjamin Speakman in South Jordan, Utah, for allegedly plotting to mass-shoot his Mormon congregation at the Jordan River Temple.

And, we also discovered that our favorite Mormon Donny Osmond (he edges out Mitt Romney who we love to make fun of!) was critical of Lady Gaga for her explicit video for her song "Telephone." Osmond, who won the coveted "Dancing with the Stars" championship, said he was all for free speech but as a parent he was concerned that the Gen Z Madonna had a gone a bit too far.

Perhaps, this means there will be no Donny Osmond* and Lady Gaga duets. That would be interesting, wouldn't it?!

*- I forgot if he spells his name with a 'y' or 'ie'!
