Ahhh, Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints...
Jan. 6th, 2009 07:25 pmI was just chatted up by a missionary of the above church on the subway. He introduced himself, asked me whether I believe in God, Jesus, the Bible, then tried to make a day for us to meet next week so he can give me a copy of their Bible and tell me more about his story. He asked me for my phone number (I don't think he wants a date, though...) and I gave him a made-up one. I definitely don't want to meet up with this guy. As I've said in the past, the main reason I can't accept these branches of religion is their fixed rules on sexuality. I don't want to end up decking the guy.
OR maybe I should've gone and asked him why I should believe in and follow a God that declares homosexuality an abomination.
Nah, I think I did the right thing. Nice guy, though. I feel sorta bad.
One last thing. Just wonderin'... who the hell names their kid Elder?
ETA: Apparently an Elder is the equivalent of a preist for Mormans. Love it.
