But they don’t wear them under their clothing like Mormons do. They say that underwear is supposed to protect them from harm. Even when they shower one foot is always touching the undergarment.

Totally False and asinine.

I'm married to a Mormon who wears the garments, they're underwear period. The underwear is rather plain and if it weren't for the little symbols sewn onto them you could buy them at any store that sells undergarments. They have sacred symbols on them to remind them of the promises they made to God. They are a protection to them in the same way that people who are true to their faith are protected by God. Only cynical, Non-Mormons call them “Magic Underwear”.

In my last post, I noted how the Mormon Church official publication, Ensign, in its October 2003 edition said:

"...The garment, … when properly worn, will serve as a protection against temptation and evil."

Note in that article, there failed to be any commentary whatsoever as to how that was to be accomplished. They didn't say, "it will serve as a reminder of your covenants" or any other description.

IoW, Mormon leaders have implied thru the years how the process is almost like spiritual osmosis...

And yet what do we have Mormon leadership saying now?

"The video notes that there is nothing magical or mystical about them"
Mormons explain their sacred undergarments
