They're a bunch of brainwashed idiots though. They think they're doing the right thing, but in reality they're just annoying people.

Mormons are based.

Jehovahs are NOT based.

>mormons
>JW
>Scientologists
>moonies
>"Christian Scientists"

all cults.
all bad news, aside from the Christian Scientists, they've got a decent magazine

>he hasn't seen Orgazmo

Aside from a few annoying missionaries, I've never met a mormon I have disliked. otoh, I've never met a jw that didn't make me uneasy.

theres one about Mormons getting caught in the filming of porno or some shit.
you see them going around town trying to get some souls for their lord
my mom told me about it
it was probably a real porno

you know it
I worked at an old folks home and we had to ban religious groups from coming in to give sermons/prayers for our patients because JWs' would literally prey on the weakest and fuck them up, they're fucking scum

>moonies
Is that shit still even around anymore? I haven't heard about it since the 80s when Moon was still alive

Mormons make me wish I could be religious. All Mormons I've known are very nice and seem to enjoy very strong familial and community ties. Only downside is they aren't socially liberal but it comes from a place of religion, not hate. Other Christians seem much more spiteful and venomous, Mormons seem to really "hate the sin but not the sinner". I've never seen a Mormon saying "God hates fags" or with a sign like that. I'm sure bad Mormons exist of course but on average they seem to be much better people than everyone else.

JW is basically Christian Scientology. My aunt would even get offended if I even said "Happy Mother's Day". Mormons seem like pleasant people that are a tiny bit more puritanical than the regular Christian.

Mormons literally believe in aylmaos

Listen to Cuck Metzger talk about growing up Jehovah's Witness.

JW is some fucked up shit.

Why would that POV be compelling or worthy of filming?

So I can see that the protagonist can feel pity at those who don't follow God's plan?

No, fuck that, I would pay to see someone act out that character, you're right. I want to see him portray belief in the beginnings of the Mormon church and tell someone with a straight face all about it. I want to see his frustration at a sinful world who reject the heavenly father and I want to see him sleep in his magic underwear or whatever.

Was that on purpose or is your auto-correct giving away how you usually post?

Former mormon here.In Utah.

Overall pretty nice, but when you're in the culture there's just as many douches and condescending fags as any group.

Mormonism in Utah does have it's own little film scene thought which is interesting. And by interesting I mean absolutely shitty. AMA if you want but prob not much to talk about.

>no holidays or annual celebrations of any kind
>no blood transfusions

What other traditions do they have?

Are you fucking retarded? Mormons get handled with baby gloves compared to their cults insanity.

There's a crapton of Mormon movies
They aren't very good except Saints and Soldiers, and that's not what you're looking for

So when is Romney going to kill Trump and finally fulfill the white horse prophecy?

Because of Jews user.

>tfw we'll never see a Sup Forumsish style movie about Jewish exploits of liberal brainwashed kids.

mormons aren't as bad as those other fringe religions so they don't deserve to be treated as bad. wouldn't want to be a mormon but i like them because they are polite.

compared to what, Islam?

Not soon enough desu.

Don't forget the Home Teachers And Singles Ward 2.

Lol shit the cuck up do you think I'm from pol?

did your parents wear the magical underwear?
why did you defect?
how is your family?
if I want to marry a mormon, Im definitely fucking them over if i dont convert right?

Oh, because you rather have a war profiteering closet fag instead when Don dies?

At this point, I'm so worried about Pence getting power I might leap in front of a bullet meant for Don.

Where are the Amish movies?

That's not very Mormon-like user

I'd rather you electrocute yourself first, faggot

>did your parents wear the magical underwear?
Yup. I have some.
>why did you defect?
Cuz it's kinda silly.
>how is your family?
They're cool. Parents devout, but okay with me being out.
>if I want to marry a mormon, Im definitely fucking them over if i dont convert right?
Yeah they'll get some guilt trips for sure. Good luck with that.

Lol calm down.

Forgive me. I just want the apocalypse so I don't have to go to work.

xD

Doesn't the mormon church offer loans to their parishioners?

This guy is such a fag.

Honestly, we need more movies from the perspectives of Jews. I honestly don't think we get enough media to show their plight and all the hate they get.

not sure about loans but they will take care of you, they still have a very community-oriented lifestyle where everyone takes care of everyone.

Did nobody mention Orgazmo? The fuck?

That's the best capekino.

Big Love was an HBO show told through the Mormon POV that was nominated for 8 Emmies and 7 Golden Globes.

They celebrate Christ some time in spring. But that's about it.

They have what's called Bethel, which is basically a work camp you can choose to live in until you die. For example their printing factories for their newsletter. A good friend of mine went there couple years ago. Works as a translator.

They practice dialogue once a week on their meetings. Simulating a door knocking event. They also have a different version of the newsletter that they study at these meetings and answer questions found in it as a group.

Jehovah's Witnesses are all creepy as fuck.

except for this girl I like who's never tried to convert me and might be the greatest person I've ever met

for fucks sake I don't know what to do, liking me has destroyed her world view and I'm being torn up on the inside as well

Same here. The first time I met Mormon missionaries they were these two young clean cut pretty girls, one blonde and one native, and well dressed. Even with respectfully expressing an opposing view to Joe Smith's fan fiction they still remained graceful. They're the polar opposite of any feminist I've seen.

As for JW, the black ones are terrible. Especially if they're in the ghetto or south. They really don't want to hear a counter to Charles Taze Russel's cult logic.

The thing about Mormons is that they pretty much harbor the same ideals of anti-liberals or right wingers. They're 2nd amendment, anti-abortion, anti-homo, anti-transgender. So naturally Hollywood will fucking hate their guts.

If her world view is collapsing and she likes you, then what's the problem? Go be with her and get her to unWitness. Or even just be with her, if she's not proselytizing the relationship would work fine.

...

she doesn't like you, nobody likes you

>tfw too smart for religion

Worked in soup kitchens and shelters since I was a teenager. Always at least one mormon around helping out. Never saw a JW once.

>too
Hellooooo Reddit!

One of my friends at work is a JW, I wonder if she has to do this shit

mormons want to create a world wide theocracy that the usa rules over. honestly, i don't have a problem with that

do you mean Trey Parker and Matt Stone's Orgasmo?
www.imdb.com/title/tt0124819/

also, when will Book of Mormon get a film adaptation, I want to see this

Yes. The primary function of JW is to spread the word as much as possible.

they're so young and handsome. i've orgasmically enjoyed drilling my dick in several of them. they're so hot. hhhhnnnngggghhhhhhhh

just be supportive but not pushy regarding her conversion

shes gonna get a lot of shit from her senpai

senpai => parents and church elders

Mormons are the best, especially on their mission. It's like they're competing with one another to show how nice they can be.
I was walking to a party once with two racks of beer, and a couple of mormons carried them for me while they talked about jesus and stuff.

all religions are cults

I grew up in a pretty mormon heavy town. On the one hand, there are some mormon families here which pretty much exactly fit the ideal. Lots of kids and they are all close to their parents and living happy lives.

On the other hand, I don't think mormonism deals well with kids who don't feel comfortable in the system. If the kid grows up cynical at all and stops believing, all of the love and support goes away. Maybe this situation only occurs in families which are already dysfunctional, but it seems like a pretty ugly result of the religion. Very cultish in that way.

There are a lot in South Korea, not that many in America. I went to school with a couple of moonies. They're creepy as fuck.

>If the kid grows up cynical at all and stops believing, all of the love and support goes away
That's just because LDS is actually strict. Every christian church was like that until relatively recently.

she only gave you that stupid card because nobody else would.

>ctrl +f "Orgazmo"
>only 2 hits

wtf Sup Forums

So you cultist cunts got tired of getting nonstop btfo in /his/ and migrated to Sup Forums to shitpost all day?

Why do the christ-killing jews deny the gospel of jesus christ?

Doesn't count as btfo when the janny is literally a safe space echo chamber SJW brigading and deleting anything that doesn't conform with his own bolshevist world view

I mean thats not too bad. I mean most holidays are either consumerist nonsense(Black Friday, father's day, valentines day), pandering(MLK day), or a formerly pagan traditions all rolled up(December holidays). Labor day is cool I guess. I only care about days off school and work

what do they believe compared to everyone else though

I'm alright with Mormons for the most part. They're always so chilled out and polite.
Kinda remind me of the Amish people around here, except.. they're actually social and don't ignore you like you've got the fucking plague.
Fucking Amish.

Mostly the new testament, its kinda tough to explain, i guess being pretty strict on their doctrines but not so much as the mormons

>No hell. No souls. Just nothing until judgement day.
>Obsessed with armageddon. God will smite all the irredeemable people. The rest get a chance for paradise.
>Believers will be allowed to live in paradise on earth. Truly holy men will work in the kingdom of heaven along with their king Jesus. 144000 to be exact.
>Satan currently rules this world. Usually depicted as an old man in white robes.
>The people in the new paradise will be tested one last time by Satan, then he and his final followers will be cast into oblivion.
>Jesus existed as a spirit long before being reborn as a human.
>Adam and Eve will not be resurrected. God really gave them the finger.

That's what I can remember at the moment. During the Christ celebration they offer some red wine, however drinking it shows that you've been called by god to serve in heaven with the other 144000. So it's a rare thing that anybody ever drinks it.

He's not wrong though.

I grew up as a JW. Can't say I experienced any fucked up shit. I left when I was about 18 because I didn't really feel any connection to it. Parents were pretty sad but no one stopped me.

>Mostly the new testament,
I've read up to Exodus for now. The Old Testament is over rated. There's too much jewish nonsense in there. Like God wanting man to be circumcised in order to be saved is laughable. There was a whole chapter on circumcision. Realized how deep Jewish propaganda is. I only care about the stories like Moses onwards. A former slave with a magic staff bringing plagues and shit is really interesting. The most interesting sounding to me is the new testament though. So maybe they got the right idea there.
>obsessed with the happening

Lmao they sound alright to me. I personally don't like commitments though. Seems like itd become a chore after a while. I'm really only interested in the history and mythos. I hold to many radical opinions and do to many "immoral/sinful" things IRL to join a sect or represent one.

I fucking hate the Amish and the way the .gov treats them with kid's gloves. They can ride their horses on the road, shitting up the highway every 100 feet, but I can't ride my UTV to work? Fucking bullshit.

Is Napoleon Dynamite honorary Mormon Cinema?

because they aren't sentient

>Janny cleans up blatant bait or non-/his/ threads once in a blue moon, and is therefore a commie!

/his/ is practically unmoderated, you fucking mongoloid. Even your shitty cult threads would usually last, until one of you spergs out because people dared to have an intelligent conversation instead of slapping on their magic underwear and fucking their harem of child brides.

JW here ama

>my mother watching this
wtf
Im pretty sure thats it
Ill show her the trailer tomorrow to confirm

thanks

They're older than the US, they're grandfathered in at this point. Sometimes you gotta deal with that shit

Why do you believe in God when there's no proof?

>when they keep stopping you but you are just too beta to tell them you aren't interested and instead waste hours discussing

dailymotion.com/video/x35fntw

>YouTube has blocked it due to copyright claims

CHANNEL 4 IS FUCKING BRITISH WHY ARE YOU BLOCKING ME?

>i don't have jesus in my heart

Exactly like SJWs, then. Yet Hollywood loves them.

of course no one stopped you, doing anything is against their religion

Jesus in your heart sounds like a medical emergency user.

t. Church of Jesus Christ of Later Day Saints

No one cares about those heretic faggots

...

Former JW.

Most younger people, being so exposed to the internet, are already 50/50 about being told how pure-evil the entire world is by white-haired old fucks who demand they wear long dresses and full sleeves and walk around for hours in the sun walking to people's homes and trying to convince them their story doesn't sound stupid.

Girls especially since the pretty ones are a lot more likely to be invited to non-JW social events and hung out with by non-JW people.

The thing is, like most religions, that shit gets ingrained into a person's psyche. She'll definitely experience a lot of feelings of existential depression brought on by questioning everything she's ever been told.

Religion is the worst thing that I've ever seen happen to humans.

I'd take annoying over blowing themselves up.

Please don't tip your fedora at me.

I know that feel, grew up in a muslim country but in a non-muslim family. Since you hang out with muslims, you start to believe this shit but then you start reading books and questionning what you're told and end up letting all this shit go.

My parents were glad I didn't end up a muslim.

these are the americans with 20 waifus and waiting for all but but 144 people to die right?

>mormons aren't socially liberal

Why would any wholesome, hard-working community be socially liberal?

How do you guys hook up?
