POLICYWANKER EDITORIAL - Magic Mormon Underwear and Other Fables of Prop 8


   Is it just Policywanker? Or do the Mormons come off as just a teenie, wee bit "out-of-their-fucking-minds"?
   Their "Amazing Prophets of the Lord" insisted Mormons everywhere join the Prop 8 fight in California. They proclaimed it was each Mormon's sacred duty to donate - compiling a war chest of $20 mil - to nullify civil rights already instituted for same-sex nuptials. Whether you lived in Sacramento or Salt Lake City - the CA queers getting hitched threatened EVERYONE!
   This, from a religion created by a delusional nineteenth-century charismatic able to rally around him - with promises of Milk, Honey and Lady Love - enough disaffected losers to call it a church.
   Principles of the LDS "faith" were found in the woods on stone tablets that somehow later mysteriously  disappeared. Inscribed in the text was the "go-ahead" for men to have multiple wives - a real crowd pleaser at the time. And then, you got the White Salamander, who might be the Angel Moroni, talking trash to Joe Smith and "voila!" - it's time for unearthly undies which will protect your private parts from intrusion by the "dark one". 
   What. The. Fuck.
   And they are the ones dictating laws?

Actually, they were gold plates, not stone tablets, with text written in "Reformed Egyptian". And Joe was probably licking toads, not salamanders.
