I get more Jehovah Witnesses than Mormon callers myself. They both know I appreciate their devotion, but am just not interested. It seems like devotion for these poor dorks to ride around Guatemala with these haircuts whatever your beliefs may be.

On Sundays, behind the doors of The Biggest Loser ranch and unseen by almost 9.5 million viewers, several contestants of the hit reality television show meet in Moses Kinikini’s bedroom to partake of the sacrament and share their testimonies.
Six of the 22 contestants on NBC’s “The Biggest Loser” this season are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, namely Moses Kinikini, Kaylee Kinikini, Rulon Gardner, Justin Pope, Sarah Nitta and Denise Hill.
“We are always here at the ranch,” said Moses Kinikini, who graduated from BYU in marketing. “We don’t have an opportunity to attend church anywhere. However, I got permission from my bishop to bless and pass the sacrament on Sundays. Our schedules get so hectic sometimes that we don’t get to it, but for the most part on Sundays we are able to bless and pass the sacrament between Kaylee and I and other contestants that are LDS.”
Kaylee Kinikini, Moses’ daughter, said she has found even though they are unable to attend church, they treasure the time they have to take the sacrament and talk about their beliefs.
“SNIP
If the LDS contestants were pitted against the non-LDS contestants, the Mormon team would be in the lead.

In other BYU Daily Universe news this week, see BYU Democrats, Republicans far from enemies -- where the two BYU campus groups debated each other -- with the BYU Republicans arguing for Democratic socialism....
Yes, you saw that correctly....NOT a typo...apparently, after the debate, the two groups found "common ground"...
(So the next thing I suppose we’ll see...is Harry Reid and Orrin Hatch heading into a home to “home teach” Lds at-home students...and the two will emerge having cloned each other into the other’s Morgbot program...and will emerge as “Harry Hatch” and “Orrin Reid”)...!!!
Just how fat are you anyway that you have no life?
(Maybe you should direct your question where it properly belongs...and also consider asking why 27.3% of the contestants are Lds?...aren’t they only 2% of the population?)
RINOS!!!!
LOL
It’s just so funny how the LDS is constantly promoting their church and trying to validate their existence.
You don’t see the Baptist’s constantly yelling “Here I am? Here I am?”.
Just read their publications. It’s all about them and specifically the Mormon Church.
They are objectify their members with their publications.
I don’t hear about some Lutheran or Methodist being so proudly displayed. It’s really unbecoming.
Usually, about as far as it goes is someone being recognized as a Christian, maybe Catholic(Christians in my mind)
These can’t be Utah mormons. They are fanatics about keeping fit. Everything is about appearances with them.
I get more Jehovah Witnesses than Mormon callers myself. They both know I appreciate their devotion, but am just not interested. It seems like devotion for these poor dorks to ride around Guatemala with these haircuts whatever your beliefs may be.
You're kidding, right? I've never seen so many overweight men as in this state. Beef and Krispie-Kremes are their drugs of choice.
I should know better. It’s the collage aged Mormons I’m thinking about. I assumed their parents would be the same way. It seemed the Mormon kids from other states were not so uptight about their weight.
Following the Word of Wisdom seems to be eating a Quarter Pounder with cheese and large fries and washing it down with a Sprite. Caffeine is bad for you. It’s all about respecting your body.
I just had dinner with two of them. Real nice kids. They came as part of the Mormon family to have dinner with my friend who is 100 and her family traveled with Brigham Young.
Funny. The deaf kid did most of the talking so when it came time for prayer I told the other one he had to pray. After that he was real talkative as well.
Hope to see them again some time. Really good kids.
