Well, the problem is that neither Judaism nor Catholicism thinks that we will all be gods and get our own planets or that the Indians were the 12 Lost Tribes who arrived here in cork submarines or...well, need I go on?

Just telling the truth about Mormonism is enough to make the jokes write themselves.

Educate yourself. In my 40 plus years in the LDS church, I've never heard taught that we will all be gods of our own planets. That's a talking point of the evangelical opposition to the Church.

“Corked submarines” isn't taught like that either, nor does it have anything at all to do with the lost tribes arriving here, not one bit. But you keep writing the jokes, someone will listen. Apparently there's a big audience who refuse to actually learn what the Church teaches before creating talking points. Keep up the great work. /s

You were correct about the tribes of Israel, but only partially. The LDS believe that a remnant of the Tribe of Joseph (one of the 12) broke off and came over to the Americas.

From the sound of it, you might enjoy a subscription to the NY Times.

“Just telling the truth about Mormonism is enough to make the jokes write themselves.”

There are a million jokes about Jews and Catholics, too, but it’s especially easy and loads of fun to make fun of us Mormons right now.

You know, if I wanted to, and if I were really creepy and evil, I could research the Catholic Church and come up with some doozies! But I’m not so I won’t.

Regarding the Jews? They are used to it.

I am proud of Glenn Beck for speaking up about this.

Livius ... what you don’t know about Jews, Catholics or Mormons would fill a library!

Obviously by your post, what you do know would fit on a pinhead!
