Q: How to get single Mormons to attend LDS Institute classes?

Chino Blanco, January 14, 2011May 25, 2011

A: Guilt and sex.

Tonight? Oh, behave. Rrrrr.

h/t: r/exmormon and t.t.a.n.s.

I know I shouldn’t be shocked and outraged that this comes from a church whose finest entertainment moment was the depiction of Johnny Lingo bartering for an 8-Cow Wife. And I know I’ve heard more returned missionaries than I can count who’ve been promised “a hot wife” in exchange for their faithfulness. But it is different when the video comes straight from the Church’s official website.

    Well, you gotta have a line somewhere right?

    Otherwise even I could qualify.

    You *would* qualify, if you weren’t such a stubborn NPD piece of work 😉 …

    Until then, you still don’t get it, do you? This stopped being a negotiation about where lines should be drawn … years ago.

    Chino, what makes you think I give two figs about your demographics? I’ve never been incredibly concerned about this issue.
