It sure does, it absorbs it through a new patented mormon teleporting technology that sends it to the planet KOLOB, never to be seen again! And if you jizz in your pants not to worry the color was carefully selected to hide those stains as well!
skeptikiker Why don't you tell us what you believe as a matter of faith? Do you have faith in something? Jesus? God? Afterlife? I only ask because If you tell me, I'll mock your faith the way you do the Mormons. I won't have to go clear into the 19th century for material like you do. C'mon...give me a chance. Stick your head up just a little!
I grew up a Mormon (I've since left the church wholeheartedly) and remember seeing my parents wear their garments. I thought they were weird, ugly, and creepy, and when I was told it was church underwear, I was horrified and dreaded growing up and having to wear them.
Kitsune Aitsuki You could always change religions. I grew up a Baptist now I'm a Satanist. (Given the unfortunate name, it's not a religion that worships Satan.)
@@rockbeauty3439 changing religions isn't as simple as changing underwear, and that's assuming that you can even find one that aligns with your existing world view. Actually, Satanism is probably the closest match for my own personal philosophy, but I don't consider myself a Satanist, just an atheist.
My grandparents are Mormon and their garments had slits in the crotch so that they could go to the bathroom without removing their magic underwear. So weird!
Yeah when I was a missionary, we never tried to trick someone with some clever group of scriptures, etc. we always simply shared how living the principles of the church has been a positive force in our lives and invited them to read and pray about the Book of Mormon (and Bible too) for themselves. If any of you ever see a missionary, they would LOVE to be pestered, it would be a nice change from all the slammed doors in their faces :)
Had to wear a Catholic school uniform for 9 long years. I honestly think my uniform skirt was magic .....I would get offered rides by total strangers when I had it on. That magic skirt helped me sell 200 boxes of candy in one day!
In Austria we have a LARP club called "The Linsar Guards". Members get a red and black striped tabard to show their membership. But the best thing is: If no other armor is worn except for this tabard, the tabard counts as armor with 2 hit points, therefore giving the wearer an unfair advatage just because he's a member of the right club. The worst thing is that this double-standard house rule is actually recognized throughout Austria... *how did that obnoxious cheaters get that through, goddammit?!?*
Of course they're picked on by nearly every non-member of the "Linsar Guard". Once I witnessed a Linsar guard trying to cook a raw chicken over the campfire by laying a brick in the embers and the chicken on top of it. After a day that thing was still raw inside. It's a pretty common joke in eastern Austria that Linsar guards get a brick as reward for signing up and if they're promoted they maybe earn a pointy stick.
Windigo, I'm right there with you. I left the Moron church in 1980 at age 15 when I was big enough to tell my mother I wasn't going and she couldn't drag me there any more. She made one final attempt at having the Bishop's counselor, a uniformed Utah Highway Patrol officer force me to go. I lost friends, I was persona non grata in the Provo, Utah West Center area, and a couple of friends who did stick by me were told I was bound to "outer darkness" by their parents. The church is vile and evil.
Ersa!a What a horrible thing to do to a person. Sounds a lot like how Lepers were treated back in the 1800's. And these people are supposed to be saintly?
These videos are hilarious and accurately point out the silliness of religious fanaticism and idiotic belief systems. The fact that anyone follows these kind of beliefs is amazing to me. I find it difficult to grasp that anyone with any sense or intelligence at all believes in all that religion tells them they must do to remain in an imaginary deity's good graces.
***** If you are attempting to describe the big bang theory, I can tell you that not all atheist believe it. An atheist is a person who doesn't believe in God and you don't have to believe in the big bang theory to be an atheist. As an atheist I can tell you that I don't know how the universe came into existence. I think that it is better to admit what you don't know instead of making up stories.
How is it religious fanaticism for them to wear certain garments? Their life, their choice. They arent hurting anybody by their actions so I dont see why people who are not Mormon care. This is no different than Jewish men with their skullcaps or Sikhs with their turbans, etc... What ever people chose to wear as uniform, Goths with their black clothes or Mormons and their underwear, to each their own. As long as they are being decent members of society and not breaking the law, I dont care. The only people who see cause to make fun and insult are the intolerant amongst us who are closer to fanaticism than the average religious person.
Religion gives people who need it a reason to live. You need to have something to live for. Suicide being the only other option in the face of an ultimately pointless existence for those with nothing to live for. I live for making money. Some people need Religion. They are needy for Religion. And I am needy for money. It's a sane answer to an insane and pointless existence.
This is really old by now but I’d like to remind you that with the correct manipulation you can break down critical thinking skills and push ANY belief system. I hope by now you have a better understanding of people unfortunate enough to be born into it or tricked into it, because it really has nothing to do with intelligence. Just know that I don’t mean any harm!
RELIGION :re-li.gion [ri-lij-uhn] 1.(NOUN) A mental disorder which makes the victim believe that they have imaginary friends that created the universe,are everywhere at once and are all powerfull.victims also suffer from blind rage when the existence of said imaginary friends is questioned.
2NDLTSTEEN I like how you say "ill written" and you've probably never even studied it. How would you know? I've studied the LDS faith and The Book of Mormon for 18 years and I've never found anything "ill written" or flawed. Look into things before you take an opinion on them.
***** Next I guess you going to tell you believe in Creationism as well. and Yes I have studied and read the the fairy tail called the bible and I have also read that junk you call b,o,m (now in 3 ply),,, perfect for warren jeffs and co
By that he means the story of Little Red Riding Hood is more plausible than him humbling himself enough to lose the pride blinding himself from the truth.
I was raised mormon -- my family is still active -- consequently I know a significant amount of "secret" mormon practices. This video is accurate with only one real error that I noticed: the attention paid to the mormon belief that the garments protect you physically. There are probably some who believe that, but it is not official doctrine, and no mormon I know would ever take that seriously.
As a former Mormon turned atheist, let me offer a defense. The garments are a big part of Mormon culture and so to them it seems normal, the same as it seems normal for the majority of Americans to wear jeans and a t-shirt, but not a sari. A lot of people's culture seems nutty when you take a few steps back. Also many people don't actually believe their garments offer protection from bodily harm. They are simply a sign of their covenants. Most any exclusive group will have signs like this, something the 'members' do to demonstrate their belonging and status. I'm not saying I am a fan of the custom or that I think it's rational when all is said and done, but this calls for some perspective.
but when non Mormons wear a T shirt and blue jeans it's not part of a sacred ritual and embued with all those oaths, like "to avenge the blood of the prophets on this people and nation".....
***** You are obviously a young milk Mormon and are unaware that for over 160 years all Mormons swore to avenge the blood of the prophets on this nation and people. And that you made ritual behavior and vows to have your throat slit, guts ripped out and tongue torn from your mouth for speaking of the lie called Mormon. In 1990 this was secretly concealed and changed because so many Mormons were whining about the violence. But from the beginning it was not so.
***** wow was my response when I was introduced to Mormonism by reading abiout The Mountain Meadows Massacre. And more wow's when I began investigating Mormonism
You are so wrong. The reason that they changed the oaths is the same reason they change ecerything else, and has nothing to do with their flock whining about the violence. The leaders of the mormon church don't give a darn about what really happened, what god did or didn't reveal to j. Smith, or any of the other stupid beliefs in the mormon religion, the only thing they care about is maximizing the profit and their general appeal is just another way to increase revenues.
As an ex-mormon who knows a bit about this, i just want to say that a reason why mormons wear that underwear and not something from a store is because it enforces modesty. They don't think those symbols do anything (okay, maybe some do that are misinformed). It just reminds a m ormon of promises they made to their God and what benefits they hope to gain.
of COURSE the SURVIVORS thank god / their unmentionables for being miraculously saved from certain death in accidents and natural disasters.... how would those that did NOT survive say anything pro or contra their "armor of god"...?
I love the Mormons. They are a more recent example of how a cult, with their own "holy text" can grow into a religion where even the most ridiculous things can be believe by its followers. Less modern/quirky than scientology. All one has to do if they deny Mormonism is extrapolate the founding of Mormonism by Joseph Smith to such figures as Paul the Apostle and Muhammed. They are all made up by men, and if there is one that is true, the god behind that story has done such a poor job of making his story have better evidence than the others. Is it the act of an all-knowing, all-powerful, all-loving, just god to have many religions come about by the hands of men, but punish us eternally for not somehow picking the right one, especially when children are indoctrinated in the faith of their parents? No. They are all made up by men. That's the only logical conclusion. Thanks Mormons!
I grew up in SLC, but my family were ex-mormon. So, when I read the origin story of the religion, I almost fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard. It's one silly, jackass religion. That I have to tolerate people like this visiting my life for its moral correctness is fucking insulting.
@@angelainamarie9656 Similar story for all religions. The funny thing is, thr mormons consistantly churn out good people, and most athiests i know just look for any opporotunity to attack others, especially on their religions.
You are absolutely right ! Mormonism is a fascinating case study of the birth and spread of a new religion in recent times. As you stated, one does not have to go back millennia before as with judaism, Xianity or islam, with mormons the phenomenon is happening right before our eyes.
Do you think someone has the right to tell me that raising my kids in the comfort of the church is wrong and that I am doing them harm by doing so? When you become a parent you will understand
I've heard a lot of stories of garments protecting people. But since it's always a case of she said that he said that she said that she said that he said, And there are never any names given of people supposedly involved, I just chalk it up to urban legends.
Mormon Temple Garments also serve another function: You're not allowed to leave even a thread of them showing in public. This means whatever clothes you wear MUST be at least long enough to completely cover them. It's a way to enforce "modesty" within the congregation.
Yamakas are part of the military too! AR 670-1 1-7b discusses exceptions based on religious standards. (2) Soldiers may wear religious headgear while in uniform if the headgear meets the following criteria. (a) It must be subdued in color (black, brown, green, dark or navy blue, or a combination of these colors). (b) It must be of a style and size that can be completely covered by standard military headgear, and it cannot interfere with the proper wear or functioning of protective clothing or equipment. (c) The headgear cannot bear any writing, symbols, or pictures. (d) Personnel will not wear religious headgear in place of military headgear when military headgear is required (outdoors, or indoors when required for duties or ceremonies).
You will only make yourself look foolish and uneducated. The garments are simply a reminder of who we are and what we believe. It's much like the yamaka (sp?) and eating kosher or halal. There is nothing "magic". That is just anti-LDS propoganda. It's also horribly offensive.
"Used to protect against temptation and evil!" Yeah, 'cause wearing that, there's a 0% chance you'll get laid! My GF would laugh for 10min straight and then tell me to go to sleep if I wore that :D
For Valentines Day there is the Yummie, made out of licorice, the Tempter, made out if saran wrap, the Challenge, made out of burlap, and the Quickie, made out of tissue paper.
I believe in Mormonism because I feel the spirit in everything I do that involves Mormonism, this religion was the absolute last thing I ever thought I would get into, I was the same as you thinking it was ridiculous, but that's because I knew nothing about it. When I looked into it with an open mind I found that it is one of the most wonderful things on this earth, the eternal family is simply wonderful, the priesthood is wonderful, the support from fellow women or men in the church is phenom
Mormons (at least myself and the ones I know) don't believe that garments can protect one from physical harm. It's a very sacred and spiritual thing, and that's why it's not discussed. It's not a "secret" it's just sacred. It's something very special and sacred to us and that's why it's not publicized, and I after reading the comments I understand why these things aren't discussed in public.
The only reason Mormons are allowed to Wear these 'Magic Underwear', and not outsiders is because once the Mormonism world server installed the 'Joseph Smith' expansion, all Mormon priests were instantly bumped to lvl 90 via the 'Refer A Friend' program, and the Underwear were a pre-order only item, that were given out in a limited quantity, so there are only so many pairs out there. As such, every pair must be handed down from Mormon to Mormom. The only other way to obtain a pair, is by creating a lvl 1 Mormon toon and then defeating a Mormon priest whom has died and obtained 'Godhood', in an arena and looting it off their corpse. Thus, the Orange 'Artifact' tag that says 'Machine Wash Warm - Do Not Tumble Dry'. If anyone is wondering, the stats are: +15STR (Super Trampoline Retardation), +15AGI (Always Gargamel Insanity), +20INT (Inside Nantucket Tamponstring), +50HP (Heretic Pedophelia), +50MP (Mormon Polygamy), +150STA (Sometimes Troublesome Alligators). Unfortunately, the Magical Garments are not dyeable, unless of course, you don;t make it to the outhouse in time, in wich case skid marks *DO NOT* come out in the wash. Please have your Mormom membership credit card handy when ordering the 'Arena' sub-expansion. Batteries not included.
If only Wonder Woman knew that wearing Magic Mormon Underwear could deflect bullets... she wouldn't need her bracelets! (her costume would look very bland, though...)
honestly its right up there with the tin foil hats, everyone says its crazy but you wont convince the wearers of it so we leave them be if it makes them feel better, let them wear it. who knows maybe the foil does work and those hobos are gonna hit it big!
Plus, I'm pretty sure there are many who don't _literally_ believe in its powers as such. It can be purely symbolic, right? This channel is called "The _Thinking_ Atheist", but "thinking" must not mean that of the critical variety. This video just seemed like a childish taunt to drum up views.
{name here} If it was only underwear, it might be different, but the story of the creation of Mormon by Joseph Smith is so laughably absurd that it calls into question the common sense of anyone claiming to buy into their nonsensical beliefs.
carmium That's subjective and arrogant. You can make fun of Mormons, but putting it under a label like "TheThinkingAtheist" is disingenuous. This entire channel, by the looks of it, is just a giant circlejerk to make atheists (non-Mormons in general even) that fall under the lowest common denominator feel good.
Drake Iverson Yeah, and that's another issue. Another issue that sounds interesting. Another issue that perhaps a channel that bills itself as "the _THINKING_ atheist" should discuss rationally.
The parallels between mormonism & Islam are incredible. Prophets, visions, books, new religions, belief about Jesus, special clothing........Check it out.
Forensource When I feel full of shit, I squeeze a mormon out. Good purpose .. to fill the pockets of the LDS church ? To provide a legion of idiots to do LDS' bidding for more idiots ?
I love how the people who claim to be tolerant and understanding will go about mocking and discriminating those who have deep personal beliefs. Its hypocrisy at its finest.
ElveeKaye Also throw in there some UFO, ghost hunting, homeopathy, praying the gay away, levitating by meditation, mind reading, astrology , telekinetics, rain dance, ghost dance, water dousing (dowsing?).
People always say magic under where as if it’s supposed to be an insult. But it’s literally just mostly metaphorical plus the car wrecks are just rumors and gossip
Reminds me of kacchera, Sikh underwear. This and hair never once cut mark their devotion to Waheguru, the spirit of God. Though I am not Sikh and don't believe that, it is a very interesting parallel among many others.
@@sidstovell2177 There's a lot about Sikhs and Mormons both that I respect. Clean living, a devotion to family, and a belief in being a hard worker all go a long way in demonstrating their strength of character. Morality, values, and general goodness should be something everyone should strive for. Regardless of religion, race, or anything else.
you gotta be $h!tt1Ng# me ! lmfao this literally had me in tears .... this can't be real, people believe this crap wtf? thanks for the laughs, great vid.
Where can i pick up some magic masonic shorts? Dio i have to show a membership card or anything? I hear they are quite majic and just could use some goid luck.
I am a Mormon. Just to clear things up here... the magic is purely symbolic, no different than Catholics wearing necklaces with a cross. our main goal in life is to become a better person. To mature mentally and spiritually. To be nice to others in all situations. if you have any more questions (I may not know all the answers but I will try) feel free to ask. I'll try to remember to come back and answer. and please, no replies of hate in any form. Thanks
Ya right, the usual momo claptrap. "Children, this is black and this is white. One is wrong and one is right, One is good and one is evil. If any of you have doubts you can submit your questions to the wardhouse bishop after I'm done witnessing. And be nice or no ice cream for you." So where did Joe Smith get that compass and square thing?
***** Can't you see that he cannot leave the cult? He has to build a time machine, to go back in time 4,800 years ago and then build an Ark to save all the animals from the magic flood or we'll all die!!!
Did you know that you don't have to follow a ridiculous story in order to mature mentally and spiritually? Nor do you have to belong to an extremely wealthy cult.
This post should learn us all why you shouldn't just like a post JUST BECAUSE it says something "nice". This one REEKS of hypocrisy and lack of self awareness. The OP is not even a troll...
Just one thing, its not that the garments are secret, they are sacred. Its a special thing you talk to god about. Why would you go and talk to people about that? Instead of poking fun on the internet, go into a church and ask questions. You will get an answer or you will find somebody that will go look for an answer for you. Lose the hate in you heart and go pick a fight with someone who will fight back. :D
*Just one thing, its not that the garments are secret, they are sacred. Its a special thing you talk to god about.* - Look, I'm sorry, I know this is an old comment and I'm really trying not to offend you, but if you genuinely believe you're talking to a higher power about your underwear there's something seriously wrong with you.
Roy Chefets its actually not that insane if you took the time to learn. Instead of being ignorant and thinking you know everything we believe in based on the internet your wrong...ask one of us
it is very insulting to hear this making fun of us is not fixing anything and we aren't secretive and by that way we recently released a video talking all about the garments we wear and the reason only members can buy them is because we don't want nonmembers or people that hate us buy them and tear them apart or burn them and get your facts straight before you go ranting about us and our beliefs it's mean and hateful and disrespectful to us.
Taylor Gardner That is asinine. They just say that to avoid facing scrutiny because they are afraid their fundamental beliefs will be scattered to the ground. Well let me tell you something, stupid beliefs deserves mockery, *not* respect. If we cannot make fun of unsound beliefs anymore just some because people would get "offended" by it, we can say goodbye to free-speech. That's how comics got banned in certain countries, that's how journals got censored. That's how our fundamental liberties to speak up against the ridicule disappears.
I was raised as a Mormon, and when I was a kid my parents had me perform the ritual burning of some special part of their temple garments, which was first cut into roughly 1/2" squares. They never told me what part of the garments it was, or exactly why it should be burned, or why the burning should be performed by the kids of the garments' wearers.
not worse than prostrating oneself five times a day, or flagellating oneself - probably a lot cooler than the standard whalebone corsets of the time, too
What is the cost of these underwear items? One person has stated on RU-vid that it is a nominal two dollars per item ~ I am positive that is grossly incorrect.
I am a Mormon and I'm not forcing anyone to believe what I believe but when someone tells me what answer I RECEIVED when I prayed and how to raise my kids, then I get pissed because none of you know me so you don't have the right to give me your thoughts or opinions on these subjects. Does that make sense?
My family wears that. I kind of keep quiet now, after trying to question the 'family sealing' where they seal your family for all eternity. Minus the fact we should get our own planet or something, they forced me in anyways. I couldn't go into most the temple mind you, only for the end. But, they let me swim in a pool with a bunch of golden oxen holding it while having dead peoples names read off to me. Same with my own siblings weddings, i got to sit in a waiting room, then finally go into a room where they were dressed like African shamans, praying over a couch cushion. To go to the temple they enforce 10% of all income to build/ maintain, they have a guy dressed in white who checks your temple recommends (a true honor, given only after an interrogation into your private life) then lets you in, or sends you to the waiting room. Oh you have to be 18+ too, bc god hates kids? So any family activities they teach are so important are banned to even the most fanatic, if they aren't 18. My grandma was also kicked out of the services. 100% true story. I swear there's a commandment about using sculptures as religious icons... Maybe joseph smith disagreed?
I live in a city, in a poor state, in a poor country. One of the first sights I saw, on a bus ride, was a huge golden Moroni (such a strange name) blowing his trumpet. The Mormon missionaries have done a good job here.
Yes I do have reasons for KNOWING my Church is true. My parents are not members of the Mormon Church I became a member after I got married. When I was 15 my beloved Aunt passed away due to a massive stroke and at 19 years old about a month after my wedding she came to me in a dream and told me that I need to investigate the LDS Church for which she wasn't a member either so I did a few weeks later I prayed to the Lord who told me......
I would encourage you to read a book titled “Unveiled Grace” by Lynn K. Wilder. It gives a detailed account of Mormon beliefs, comparing them with the Bible - both the Old and New Testament. It is wonderful!
