What are your stories? Here's mine.

My parents and niece came to visit earlier this year, and while they were here I gave my cat some catnip. He loves it, and it seems to get all the aggression out of his system so that he doesn't attack us as much. It also makes him get all loopy, and it's fun to watch!

My cat was bouncing off the walls, so I gave him a pinch of catnip in a bowl with my mother present. He licked the bowl clean and then began wiping his face on the floor. My ten year old and I laughed ourselves silly. My 71 year old mother mother was sternly disapproving. Later, I noticed the catnip tub was gone, so I searched everywhere for it. Mom was silent. I dug through the trash and found it. I told her "You'll never believe where I found the catnip. It was in the trash!" She denied doing it and changed the subject. So funny!

We still laugh about the time that Grandma threw out our catnip, because she didn't want the cat disobeying the Word of Wisdom.

Tell me your stories of Mormon hilarity. :)

It could be worse - the cats could be looking at kitty porn.

If you don't talk to your cat about catnip, then who will?

Not sure if this is a mormon link, but this dog seems to be getting ready to audition for the MoTab choir.

LOL! I loved that. That dog could have sung "Yoo-hoo unto Jesus for refuge have fled" in my old ward.

My best friend when I was 38, was a sharp old bird of 84. She was an investigator and eventually joined the TSCC. We had a lot of great visits.

One time she asked me about our RS president.

"The RS president was reading the WOW and when it came to "hot drinks" she ADDED 'meaning coffee and tea'...and kept on reading!
I was so surprised! There is NO mention of coffee and tea in the D & C those words are not found! But the RS president was changing the scriptures as she read out loud. Did she think I was so dumb that I couldn't read the D & C for myself?"

I was TBM at the time, and I didn't understand why the lying words. But now that I'm out....of course, it's okay if you're lying for the lard!

For what it's worth, she probably had heard it that way for so long it was part of the WoW and that was that. She wasn't lying or altering the scriptures, she was giving you the fullness of the gospel she had been told.

Mormonism and the WoW are about obedience to the men who sit on high, not to scripture or a deity or anything that might hold their penises accountable.

You should probably send your cat to rehab and repent for ruining his life.


I had a friend that made me a beautiful beaded cross that hung from a leather strap when I was about six. I loved it. I wore it to church and a leader came over and took it off and told me I could have it back after Sunday school.

I asked why I couldn't wear it. She said, "because you're inviting the devil in with that...thing!"

I just thought it was pretty, I I didn't know I was a witch and my necklace had magic powers.

Wow! Not just non-Mormon, but actually inviting in the devil! The most recognized symbol of Jesus Christ, just wow.
