I thought the Mormans Covenant with God that was the real reason they wore such garments but I wasn't sure. It's the same reason that Hasidic jews were their prayer shawls underneath their clothes. Thank you for clearing this up
Makes a lot of sense!!! To get into heaven, you must be wearing panties from UTAH, your name must be in a capsule, you have to ride bikes for 2 years telling people about underwear, you must NEVER drink CocaCola, (btw the owner of come is a Mormon), no drugs, and no MURDER... Seems God would cut us some slack.... Get a life pal...
The Magic Mormon Underwear ! That supposedly can stop bullets, protect you from fire, and heal you during a heart attack. Why do we bother to spend a thousand dollars a set for body armor for our troops, why not just give them Magic Mormon Undies ? I have read MORMONS talk about the magic power of thier undies.
I wear my garments and there's nothing magical about them. At least nothing like Lucky Charms which by the way ARE magically delicious! But seriously, certain people (those of the played out anti-Mormon movement; HEY we're not going anyhwere!) need to get a life and a REAL realationship with God and Jesus Christ instead of working for Satan. Oooo, did I just say that? I call it like I see it. This is my opinion and my opinion ONLY. Anti's deal with it.
I love it. Magical underwear. You theist mormons have set back our species thousands of years. There is no God. You cannot have a relationship with something that does not exist. You do not need mercy as there is no hell, no sin, no soul, and most importantly, you are free (if you chose to think).
Although the garment has been explained a 1000 times before, it was probably necessary to explain its symbolic meaning the 1001st time. Thanks for doing that.
Thank you for your clear and true explanation. We normally dont want to speak about that, but our critics spread a lot of lies and misunderstandings, so its necessary to correct these views.
I love how you explained the garments. I feel naked when I do not have mine on like when swimming They are also to remind us of the garments given to Adam and Eve when they discovered they were naked in the garden of Eden
Why would these garments help a Mormon remember their relationship with God, to remember the promises they made to God and to remember his mercy? You don't need garments for that - that is what your brain is for! Seems to me the church doesn't take much stock in Mormons using their brains. Such stupid silliness.
@ambygirl1008 Yet members of the Christian church wear the crucifix as a reminder of the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ? Let the members of the LDS church wear and believe what they want in peace, because you will find the the thing we believe very similar to other churches.
@ambygirl1008 Maybe the same reasons way christians "wear" crosses for remembering. It is all symbolic in all faiths. I wear shoes to remember that I will not get blisters on my feet.
Clearly we are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to belief but, I must say, your videos are a much better PR campaign than your church's recent 'And I am a Mormon' business. The people attacking you should be ashamed. Just because you believe things that are queer doesn't make you deserving of verbal onslaught. I don't have to respect your beliefs to respect you. Well done, sir.
Mormon scripture teaches that Cain, who killed his brother Abel, was so evil that God "cursed" him with black skin, thus creating the African race. In a related belief, though the LDS church has deemed any worthy male to be part of the priesthood, black males were not recognized in this capacity until 1978.
So its not the PRIMARY reason for the "undergarments" So the magical powers are just the secondary right? And why does it have to be underwear? Why not magical hats? Or sacred Condoms? Or maybe a sacred Headband? Who knows maybe the sacred robe blessed by Smith himself from the floating star you believe he resides in =D
Food for thought. Stop reading from a script that your other mormon friends give you, doesnt sound very convincing. =P
All these people leaving comments about "magical underwear" obviously didn't watch the entire video. The dude just said Mormons don't believe they're magic, and he's right! The garments are a symbolic reminder to be good. Nothing magic about that.
People who believe the underwear is magical probably also believe all Mormons are still polygamists. They're misunderstandings are a century out of date. Pick up with the times, people!
@MissGingerOpal Those frequent claims I've heard from Mormons about their garmies protecting them from fire and road rash? I'd call that endowing their undies with magical properties!
And sorry to bust your bubble, but some denominations of Mormons are certainly polygamists, whether the big organization recognizes them or not. They're still there, just not your kind of Mormon.
Why does LDS work so hard to defeat gay marriage, but not polygamy? They look they other way. Hmmmm.
To understand a bit about temples, we all should read the Bible, see:
- Ordinances in Temples are not secret but sacred, only sanctfied ones are allowed; Jeremiah 51: vers.51
- Aspects of temples inside; Jeremiah 52: vers.20 see also
- Temples Must be built everywhere; Zechariah 6: vers.15 - Malachi3: vers.10
- About garments in temples; Exodus 28: vers. 2,4 - Exod.35: vers.19 - Finaly as Jesus said: " Search the scriptures...They are they wich testify of me."
The level of tollerance displyed by some of the comments here is trully inspiring. And so well articulated, (obviously very bright, well educated individuals one and all).
At least Latter Day Saints aren't wearing explosives as under garments,...
Looking at all the comments below makes grateful the world is full of such tollerant people. At least Latter Day Saints aren't wearing explosives under the coats,...
Still trying to comprehend how someone can say "magical underwear" or "sacred undergarment" with a straight face. Hearing Mike Wallace repeatedly say it makes it even funnier.
I don't know I have an aunt that is mormon that believes in magic underwear. She also worships this clay snake with feathers its supposed to be Quetzalcoatl she thinks that was Jesus in north america.
I have to say, I am a new Mormon Convert who has, my whole like believed in God, Jesus, Savior by Grace, Jesus Atoning Sacrific ect ect ect...
& I have NEVER felt so violated and hurt by [eople remarks towards my religious beliefs than now..
People say they have the love of Christ in their hearts, yet when they come on youtube and think people dont know who they are, they say terrible things about our beliefs (which dont even afffect them!!!).
I'm not an LDS member, but I like to wear Mormon garments--particularly the one piece Corban (their name for silky nylon tricot). Any church that can make underwear that is this erotic and wants their members to wear them 24/7 is ok with me. I may not believe in everything they preach, but until you have had sex in a pair of their nylon underwear, you don't know what you're missing!
Look people. Catholism has killed millions o people. The catholic church had many Prejudices many people and many such things. Just let everyone believe in why they want and stop judging. God doesn't like that.
Except you were told by a proven false prophet to wear the underwear.
It's difficult to deal seriously with this fatuous nonsense, the ludicrous doctrines of a single con man have turned thinking people into focussing on magic underwear, endowments, priesthoods, ordinances and rituals. It's a morass of absurdity that has nothing whatever to do with the real Jesus.
The cross of Christ reminds us of God's mercy, not underpants.
Eh, if I am a true believing Mormon, and I am in the army, do I not need bullet proof vests? Will magic undies suffice?
And will magic undies protect me from cancer, AIDS, flu and other microbial diseases - or are the magic undies powerless against microbe-level challenges?
Hahahaha, Mormons, dimwitted, cross-eyed, brainwashed assholes who believe in this shit and refuse to acknowledge the twisted, satanic, sexist and racist beginnings of Mormonism.
Mormonism has all the racist and confused sentiments of the time of its formation written all over it. The irony is Mormons are spreading it in Africa, hiding its real origins. How far does Mormonism think it can go internationally without acknowledging and then shading some of its shameful history?
The irony is Africans, those in east Africa were believers in Jesus Christ for 1800 years, they endured so much and persevered as Christians, and then came a Joseph Smith, 200 years ago, who claims that they are a cursed race who should not be allowed in his temple of God. Mormons are now taking his doctrines and teaching it to Africans, always hiding the true philosophies of Mormonism while at it. Am I expected to just let go of this? How dare you, look your selves in the mirror Mormons.
ur expected to grow up and concentrate on saving ur self and stop bashing other religions. do u think the lord really planned for u to ignore him and bash others. what a waste of a life.
You know better that they aren't 'Magic Underwear"
but I also know that you deny the one true God and Jesus Christ, whom he sent. Since you don't know what you're talking about I suggest that you admit that you don't and that you no longer make a mockery of sacred things.
Yeah, every religious moron believes that his god is the one and true god.
theldslife, you don't believe in 99.9% of gods that exist. Neither do I. I just disbelieve in 1 more fairy tale, than you do. So we both are atheists as far as 99.9% of gods are concerned.
Don't be a hypocrite - disbelieve in that remaining 0.01% as well :-)
We don't believe that "Our God" is truer than any other. We just have a different understanding of him than others do thanks to God's revelations to Joseph Smith, including the first vision, we know the true corporeal nature of God, our father in Heaven. We better understand our relationship to him.
What separates us from some Christians is that we do not teach the non-biblical theory of the Trinity... that which was born of certain creeds centuries after Christ taught truth.
Yes, God told Joseph Smith that non white people are cursed and by no means they should be allowed in the Mormon temple. This is the truth of black and other brown race of people, unlike what is written in the bible where it says all people are same in the face of God, the book of Mormon corrected this fallacy by stating that non whites are cursed. Glory to Joseph Smith our lord of lords, our prophet, the white, the Aryan, the righteous.
Please put away the Non-Mormon Pamphlet and learn what the LDS church truly believes.
God is not racist... none are denied. What you say is just not LDS Doctrine!
"...he doeth nothing save it be plain unto the children of men; and he inviteth them all to come unto him and partake of his goodness; and he denieth none that come unto him, black and white, bond and free, male and female; and he remembereth the heathen; and all are alike unto God, both Jew and Gentile. (Book of Mormon)
Mormons, mormons mormons... we could let go all the crazy staff you guys believe in just as other religions, but, nasty, in your face racism is something we can't let go.
I am a Mormon and I believe black people were a cursed race until in 1978 after the US civil rights moment God came down and repealed all their sin. They are no full humans.
White people are not albinos we are just made in the image of God. Let's than the racist white Joseph Smith, he is our savior and we pray to him to show us guidance.
My Grandfather was a highway patrolman in Wyoming. He also was in a really bad accident which he caught fire. He was wearing his garments and he was not harmed. :)
I got in a serious semi-truck accident. I experienced a small gash on my head and a scrape on my shin... but I believe that by wearing my garments, I was preserved from a possibly fatal crash with a tractor-trailer combo.
When I wear them I remember I am a member of the covenant. The same covenant that Jehovah made with Abraham and what became the "new and everlasting covenant" when Christ came to redeem men.
Being part of this covenant gives us protection from bodily harm as well as from evil and conspiring men. I now know that I will not go before my time. If God has a work for me to do, I will do it till I get called home.
I am a mormon and a cursed man from the black race attacked me, he had Lucifer in his eyes. He swung a blade at me but he missed, not only he missed my body he then curled his hand and stubbed himself in the heart. That was the end of him. My magic underwear are clean, white and shiny. All Mormons in order to be protected from the cursed black race wear you moron undies.
Wow, cool. I suppose Mormon brethren in the army don't wear kevlar then?
And do Mormon undies protect believers from cancer and other diseases, by giving a super-strong immunity? Or are these Mormon undies powerless against bacteria, and other cellular level challenges?
So let me know, about
1. Mormons in army not using kevlar
2. Mormons being protected from all bacteria as well
With hugs and kisses to a fellow Mormon undie bro! :-x
Man you can take a wedding ring off and leave it and forget it or lose it. Mormons can't take it off. If they have to wash it they put one leg out put a clean one on that leg and repeat so for the other leg. Wha????!!
I'd be more accepting of this if ... one, mormons didn't openly deny it then announce it later
two, you didn't sound like you were reading from a prewritten message, from where I'd know, sounds like you haven't thought of these arguments on your own. Come on if this your beliefs use your own words otherwise it's only the author's beliefs and not yours
The statements you think we deny aren't made by other LDS folks. It sounds like you have a lot of pre-judgments about the LDS church or its members. Would you care to elaborate why?
makes perfect sense, its a simple reminder more symbolic then protective, Not really a cult thing, its funny how we americans are so quick to judge successful establishments... so BYU University athletics are really young cult members? how about believing christians that cherish the good things in the world rather then their status in the world? just a thought does any other religion take more crap then the LDS church does? ITS SAD and kinda pathetic what some of you think you know
yes but the jews are God's chosen people (star of David on the hat) so u put your trust in your underwear,,and not trust in Matt 6:13 the Lord's prayer "deliver us from evil" u can dilute the cultish belief of the sacred underwear in anyway u choose, but what is really going on is mormonism is taking away the follower's belief in Jesus..
What crap - the ring and the jewish/islamic cap is symbolic. No one says that they are actual physical means of protection.
On the other hand, the mormon underwear is not only considered symbolic of a kevlar bullet-proof vest combined with a fireman's suit, you will find lots of mormons attesting to bullets bouncing off their underwear, and of fire not affecting their magic panties.
The only person with bullet-proof magic underwear is Superman. Everyone else is a mor(m)on.
I heard a story about 3 dudes who got put into a fiery furnace but were unharmed! One guy got put into a Lion's den... Oh wait, that comes from the Bible... same concept. The faithful to those covenants that are made with the Lord receive general as well as miraculous protection.
Ah, so one hopes that these people don't need healthcare? Whew, the country can save some money.
And can these people, who are also American patriots, fight for their country at the borders, and in Asia? We would save a lot of American lives, if these invincible men & women were to volunteer in the military.
I wonder why you seriously strayed from the theme of my last message. The point I was making is that miracles have happened from stories we have from the Bible so I was quizzing you a little on those stories in the book of Daniel but from your response, I wonder if you know who Daniel is.
Yeah, and a miracle happened with the grandma of Little Red Riding Hood, who got saved after being eaten up by a big bad wolf.
theldslife, if you plan to quote fairy tales to me, I will do the same. On the other hand, if you have documented science/news articles of miracles, bring em on. And do give the link etc.
And hey, I've read Grimms's fairy tales, and the Bible, and the works of Ron Hubbard, so I am well versed in fairy tales and medival bronze age mythology etc.
@wild112233 and apparently you are as ignorant as you are stupid. did you not hear the guy correct the misconception and explain that the garment is in fact a SYMBOL of the relationship with God, NOT magical super-hero underoos?? try to stay with the ballgame here, ok?
@RacistAgainstRacists Hahaha, you obviously haven't seen numerous videos of your Mormon leaders who have proclaimed how this symbolic thong has protected them from bullets, fire and homosexuality.
Go talk with your religious leaders and learn more about the undies you wear, before you come to post here.
@wild112233 Look at what you wear, does it have a team insignia or a brand. What does it remind you of. If you were to wear something that reminds you to try harder like nike shoes or live better like a peace sign it just might affect your attitude and help you throughout the day. A cloth is not bullet proof but with God all things are possible. You do not know what affect a good symbol may have on you. Do your jeans have a name and does it affect them or you. Do you reject Gods power?
Fact: over the last few thousand years, modern-day Jews and modern-day Native Americans do not share common ancestors. If they did, then genetic markers would be found in Natives identical to those in the descendants of ancient Hebrews.
Hi Belivingldsmormon, even by your claim that the undergarments are used as a symbol such as wedding ring or a jewish cap, wont it be logical to wear outside so that your eyes can see and remind you that you are a mormon? Though you may argue that genital mutilation (circumcision) is an internal one performed by Jews and Muslims...but there it was performed for connecting to the almighty (literally). But both these groups offer caps as their outside side symbol
i'm no longer an active member, but i still wear my one-piece corban garments, i have some that have a zipper down the front, & some that r cotton, but they button up the front & only go to the knees!
the magical underwear (aka garments) protect you from temptation, fire, evil, and bullets
the only think it doesnt protect against is kryptonie....for those of you who didnt know superman was mormon and got is powers from wearing TWO pairs of garments at once
Garments have power for the wearer in that they remind the wearer of the covenants they have made with Heavenly Father. They are not magical but they do hold a sacred place. Without the covenants, they would only be underwear. Calling them strictly undergarments somewhat diminishes their significance.
"....it will be a shield and a protection ... This is where people get the magical underwear, not from a stupid analogy to a wedding ring. Shield and protection: cotton underwear being "shield and protection. That is magic. Save your inane analogies for your children and you Mormon believing mindless, sheep, cult members. The underwear is a shield for Morgbots. It is disingenuous to say otherwise.
This is what is known as lying for the Lord. At least Marriott told the Mormon doctrinal truth as silly as it seemed. (Mike Wallace had to cover his mouth to keep from laughing.) You patronize us by explaining as if people were children. This what the actual Mormon temple rite says: "..Garment of the Holy Priesthood. This you were instructed to wear throughout your life. You were informed that it will be a shield and a protection to you" Quit your lying for the Lord. It disgusts people.
Excuse me, this man explained the purpose of garments perfectly. You obviously do not know the purpose of them and it is very wrong for you to call this man a liar. When he tulled the truth perfectly.
Actually, Zombie, I explained the purpose of the "garment of the Holy Priesthood" perfectly. I quoted the Mormon cult rite exactly. He is a liar and trying to put the cult spin on it. You obviously don't know the purpose of the Jesus jammies either or you are a liar too. The cult promises that they will be a "shield and protection". Don't you understand that? Jesus Christ!!!!!!! Another liar for the Lord.
Okay, first off. I'll assume you mean me, by Zombie? Fair enough? And no, they are not "magical". Yes they are protection, but not super natural. Just like he says in the video.
Zombie, you still lie. He gives three purposes of your Jesus jammies. None of them are "a shield and protection" as your temple rite says exactly. He only describes Marriott's explanation as an experience. Most Mormons believe that they will have supernatural protection. If they proclaim that they don't, they love the stories about supernatural experiences. Some Mos never remove the garmies.
I am not Mormon, nor do I support them, but you're making claims based on fallacies and circular logic. Your own quote did not state that the garments were specifically meant to be "a shield and protection". If you would pay attention (if you read it) to the bible, you would notice that many things are metaphorical. Sometimes the best defense to a physical attack is an idea. An idea will never stop a sword or bullet as a shield would, but it can save or change your life.
Hammer: The point that I am making is that Mormons believe that the garments will literally protect them from physical harm. It is not a metaphor. Some Mormons never completely take them off. Some step from one pair into another while changing underwear. Marriott describes how they saved him from fire. Mormons in the 1900s believed that Joseph Smith was killed because he wasn't wearing them when attacked. It is a literal protection, not an "idea". To say otherwise is disingenuous.
Granite..........you astound me. Mormons do take them off & never step from one to another. Its called hygiene. Nobody believes they will physically protect you. It is a metaphor of vows just like the wedding ring.
Drinksalot: I have never heard of a wedding ring being called "shield and protection". The ring is presented as a symbol and said so in the ceremony. I never needed a ring to remind me. Paul H Dunn used to tell stories about the Jesus jammies protecting him in WWII. He was an apostle in the Mo Cult. Marriott, a person the cult likes to hold up as a prominent Mo, tells his story of his garmies protecting him from fire. To say that "nobody believes they will physically protect" is a boldface lie!
Also, he tells a half truth. The garmies are not all like boxer shorts. Boxers don't go to the knee and many wear one piece. The original were more like long johns and some Mos still wear those. The ones in the temple are long johns. He also fails to mention about the women wearing equally weird jammies, wearing the bra over them. Many Mos believe that Joseph Smith died at the gun battle in the Carthage jail because he wasn't wearing the garmies at the time.
I dont condone making fun of his wife, she looks like a nice woman, If you are going to disagree make it on a scriptural basis not on personal attacks.
Mullethater you are quoting scriptures from the new testament, in those same scriptures it also states that those times had ended and to be aware of false prophets which the whole mormon church is based on. You are twisting sciptures for your own means. Show me where in the scriptures where it says god lives on a planet, where it says smith will come like there were with christ, god was very clear what to watch for and who to be ware of. You sir are wicked
Mullethater, You are the one spreading apostate teachings and lies from a theiving adulterer, God lives on a planet Klatu, The underwear protects you from bullets and fire, You sir are brainwashed, you take a book written by an adulterin liar as truth over the real greek and hebrew scriptures, You take his so called visions as fact when it was clearly says in the bible to be aware or false prophets which is exactly what J smith and B young were, Im not the face of satan, you are
The Morman Church lied about the underwear for years until it was proven, claimed it wasnt true for along time. they hid it because they knew it was false christian rituals. Now they try to claim that it is like wearing sackcloth in early christian times, which is another spin and a lie, they also feel that J smith is equal if not greater than Jesus and that the Book of mormon is a greater text than the Bible, both Hebrew and Greek scriptures. The mormon church is true demonstration a cult
If this chromosonally efficient, helmet wearing, short bus riding dooosh says it, it must be true. Even though everything he said is a complete fabrication, that his pastor in the rented out strip mall church, told him to say. Folks, dajhrm is the very face of Satan. Never wonder again if Satan is real, he is right here posting on youtube. Go gettum Lucifer! You're making all of the demons in hell, proud to serve you!
nothing u wear getz u into heaven.. it's what you say and do.. with Jesus alive.. in your life and body.. and all that you do.. sometimes we fail.. we are only human but nothing materialistic we wear iz gonna make a difference.. welcome 2 tha REAL Christianity.. note: the devil can appear az an angel.. like he did 2.. dw that might offend..
The justifications for doing ridiculous things never ends. You need to wear white undergarments to remember your relationship and promises with God? That doesn't make sense. Note: people wear wedding rings to let other people know you're married / taken.
Do you ride the short bus to school or what? You are right though, God did not Fed-Ex my garments to me! Since the Mormon garments are nothing more than a reminder of our commitment to Christ and his teachings, I can only assume that you also mock and deride the catholic priest's collar, and anyone who wears a cross, right? Since they wear those items for the very same reasons. I am sure you are not mocking the undergarments because you are a complete and utter useless dooosh, right?
people have there own way of believing and thats your oppinion thats finee. but some people are truee believers, we know what we are, we dont make fun of any Religon at all. its there beliefs, stop Questioning ours. Kay thankss.
That's the exact opposite of what the Bible says...narrow is the way that leads to life...broad is the path to destruction...man's way leads to death..and so on..
Jesus spoke more of hell in the NT than heaven because it's real and most people are going.
God says cast down imaginations in high places...contend for the faith...Jesus did this in Matt 23
You're right, narrow is the way! i am glad you pointed that out. So how are you going to fit thousands of Contradictory born again churches through that narrow gate? You pretend that you hold the standard of truth and everyone else is outside of it. Your rented out strip mall church is just part of the chaos and disagreement in the fundamentalist christian world. you ignore the Biblical necessity for priesthood authority & baptism that you discarded when you broke away from the catholics.
Another great point! The catholics who were the only ones who could have retained the priesthood authority to baptize lost it through deviating from Christ's church, then the protestants broke away, re-enforcing my point that you don't have the necessary priesthood to baptize, which is required to enter through the straight gate. Even Christ was baptized to show you the way. And now you deny the necessity for baptism. When did Christ ever say that baptism was no longer needed?
No, it's just typical Mormon legalism. Do this, don't do that to be worthy in God's sight. It's a cult. They need the underware to remember Jesus, but it's different Jesus altogether than the one of the bible that Christians worship and who lives in us!
ahh yes, that indescribable, incomprehensible Christ-Spirit-God, all in one mysterious floating mass of goo out in the universe, and invented by a bunch of drunken men at the council of Nicea, who represented the catholic church which was founded by Constantine, who used to burn Christians at the stake to light his dinner parties, until he found it politically expedient to align with the Christians, and was baptized on his death bed. You are right, we don't believe in that non-biblical Jesus.
It's cool. We can drop the 'magical underwear' line. There's more than an ample supply of other completely absurd things Mormons believe. Joseph Smith was a convicted fraud. No one ever saw those plates. He was unable to retranslate the missing text. He got EVERYTHING wrong about the lineage of native americans, black people, and everyone else. Was a racist and discriminatory organization until legally forced to be otherwise.
How can you put so much stock in such an organization?
Well, first off, the majority of your statements are false.
But the reason I "put so much stock in such an organization" is because of all the good it produces.
A rotten tree does not produce good apples.
Between the service projects that the church organizes for the communities (not just the church itself), the love that we preach to have for all people, and the general good attitude that the majority of us have, I would say that overall, the organization is a good one.
"A rotten tree does not produce good apples" - and a bad analogy does not make a good argument. If you want to reduce the church to a public service or charity, then so be it. You can give shelter and food to every homeless person, it doesn't make your other claims any more true. I've heard Hamas does a good job of getting kids off drugs, is that a good argument in favor of Hamas?
No, I'm saying that performing charity neither indicates the truth of its claims nor the over-all 'goodness' of the organization. Pointing to the charity work done by an organization does absolutely nothing to indicate the validity or big picture of the whole organization.
If you lower the bar from 'terrorist' to 'racist' or 'criminally insane' then yeah, I'd suggest that the LDS meets those titles.
If you lower the bar to 'racist' or 'criminally insane' then you could include all men that walk the face of the planet to a level of terrorism. Because we are all, at one point or another in our lives, guilty of prejudices of others based on what we think we perceive.
My question is, do you despise all religions and religious people? Or is it just the Mormons? And why have you come to such an opinion of us?
"No one ever saw those plates." Eleven other people saw those plates. Their names were: Oliver Cowdery; David Whitmer; Martin Harris; Christian Whitmer; Jacob Whitmer; Peter Whitmer, Jr.; John Whitmer; Hiram Page; Joseph Smith, Sr.; Hyrum Smith; and Samuel H. Smith.
As far as your other claims, have you actually read the book, or are you basing your arguments of hearsay?
Most of those names are of the Smith and Whitmer families (which automatically adds a level of suspicion).
Upon further review of what these 'witnesses' actually testified to; it appears that their threshold for 'witnessing' something is low enough to include visions like dreams. I can't find a single instance of someone saying anything like, 'Here are the plates in my hands, their dimensions are X, their weight is X, the markings look like X,. so on and so forth." Help me if I missed it.
I thought the Mormans Covenant with God that was the real reason they wore such garments but I wasn't sure. It's the same reason that Hasidic jews were their prayer shawls underneath their clothes. Thank you for clearing this up

I love it. Magical underwear. You theist mormons have set back our species thousands of years. There is no God. You cannot have a relationship with something that does not exist. You do not need mercy as there is no hell, no sin, no soul, and most importantly, you are free (if you chose to think).

Although the garment has been explained a 1000 times before, it was probably necessary to explain its symbolic meaning the 1001st time. Thanks for doing that.

Why would these garments help a Mormon remember their relationship with God, to remember the promises they made to God and to remember his mercy? You don't need garments for that - that is what your brain is for! Seems to me the church doesn't take much stock in Mormons using their brains. Such stupid silliness.

Mormon scripture teaches that Cain, who killed his brother Abel, was so evil that God "cursed" him with black skin, thus creating the African race. In a related belief, though the LDS church has deemed any worthy male to be part of the priesthood, black males were not recognized in this capacity until 1978.

So its not the PRIMARY reason for the "undergarments" So the magical powers are just the secondary right? And why does it have to be underwear? Why not magical hats? Or sacred Condoms? Or maybe a sacred Headband? Who knows maybe the sacred robe blessed by Smith himself from the floating star you believe he resides in =D
Food for thought. Stop reading from a script that your other mormon friends give you, doesnt sound very convincing. =P

All these people leaving comments about "magical underwear" obviously didn't watch the entire video. The dude just said Mormons don't believe they're magic, and he's right! The garments are a symbolic reminder to be good. Nothing magic about that.
People who believe the underwear is magical probably also believe all Mormons are still polygamists. They're misunderstandings are a century out of date. Pick up with the times, people!

And sorry to bust your bubble, but some denominations of Mormons are certainly polygamists, whether the big organization recognizes them or not. They're still there, just not your kind of Mormon.

To understand a bit about temples, we all should read the Bible, see:

- Aspects of temples inside; Jeremiah 52: vers.20 see also
- Temples Must be built everywhere; Zechariah 6: vers.15 - Malachi3: vers.10
- About garments in temples; Exodus 28: vers. 2,4 - Exod.35: vers.19 - Finaly as Jesus said: " Search the scriptures...They are they wich testify of me."

Garments have power for the wearer in that they remind the wearer of the covenants they have made with Heavenly Father. They are not magical but they do hold a sacred place.

I am not Mormon, nor do I support them, but you're making claims based on fallacies and circular logic. Your own quote did not state that the garments were specifically meant to be "a shield and protection". If you would pay attention (if you read it) to the bible, you would notice that many things are metaphorical. Sometimes the best defense to a physical attack is an idea. An idea will never stop a sword or bullet as a shield would, but it can save or change your life.

Hammer: The point that I am making is that Mormons believe that the garments will literally protect them from physical harm. It is not a metaphor. Some Mormons never completely take them off. Some step from one pair into another while changing underwear. Marriott describes how they saved him from fire. Mormons in the 1900s believed that Joseph Smith was killed because he wasn't wearing them when attacked. It is a literal protection, not an "idea". To say otherwise is disingenuous.

Also, he tells a half truth. The garmies are not all like boxer shorts. Boxers don't go to the knee and many wear one piece. The original were more like long johns and some Mos still wear those.

Many Mos believe that Joseph Smith died at the gun battle in the Carthage jail because he wasn't wearing the garmies at the time.

I dont condone making fun of his wife, she looks like a nice woman, If you are going to disagree make it on a scriptural basis not on personal attacks.

Mullethater you are quoting scriptures from the new testament, in those same scriptures it also states that those times had ended and to be aware of false prophets which the whole mormon church is based on. You are twisting sciptures for your own means. Show me where in the scriptures where it says god lives on a planet, where it says smith will come like there were with christ, god was very clear what to watch for and who to be ware of. You sir are wicked

Mullethater, You are the one spreading apostate teachings and lies from a theiving adulterer, God lives on a planet Klatu, The underwear protects you from bullets and fire, You sir are brainwashed, you take a book written by an adulterin liar as truth over the real greek and hebrew scriptures, You take his so called visions as fact when it was clearly says in the bible to be aware or false prophets which is exactly what J smith and B young were, Im not the face of satan, you are

The Morman Church lied about the underwear for years until it was proven, claimed it wasnt true for along time. they hid it because they knew it was false christian rituals. Now they try to claim that it is like wearing sackcloth in early christian times, which is another spin and a lie, they also feel that J smith is equal if not greater than Jesus and that the Book of mormon is a greater text than the Bible, both Hebrew and Greek scriptures. The mormon church is true demonstration a cult

If this chromosonally efficient, helmet wearing, short bus riding dooosh says it, it must be true. Even though everything he said is a complete fabrication, that his pastor in the rented out strip mall church, told him to say. Folks, dajhrm is the very face of Satan. Never wonder again if Satan is real, he is right here posting on youtube. Go gettum Lucifer! You're making all of the demons in hell, proud to serve you!

The justifications for doing ridiculous things never ends. You need to wear white undergarments to remember your relationship and promises with God? That doesn't make sense. Note: people wear wedding rings to let other people know you're married / taken.
Elhardt 2 years ago
Garments are not from God. They have a compass and square sewn into them.
They are restrictive and uncomfortable. Every faithfull Mormon wants everyone else in the world to wear these same garments.
Is this a cult or what?
awolLDSasap 2 years ago
Do you ride the short bus to school or what? You are right though, God did not Fed-Ex my garments to me! Since the Mormon garments are nothing more than a reminder of our commitment to Christ and his teachings, I can only assume that you also mock and deride the catholic priest's collar, and anyone who wears a cross, right? Since they wear those items for the very same reasons. I am sure you are not mocking the undergarments because you are a complete and utter useless dooosh, right?

people have there own way of believing and thats your oppinion thats finee. but some people are truee believers, we know what we are, we dont make fun of any Religon at all. its there beliefs, stop Questioning ours. Kay thankss.

How would their own way of believing be fine?
That's the exact opposite of what the Bible says...narrow is the way that leads to life...broad is the path to destruction...man's way leads to death..and so on..
Jesus spoke more of hell in the NT than heaven because it's real and most people are going.
God says cast down imaginations in high places...contend for the faith...Jesus did this in Matt 23
Do you believe the Bible to be the Word of God?
It doesn't sound like it. Are u Mormon?
johnyjamie 2 years ago
You're right, narrow is the way! i am glad you pointed that out. So how are you going to fit thousands of Contradictory born again churches through that narrow gate? You pretend that you hold the standard of truth and everyone else is outside of it. Your rented out strip mall church is just part of the chaos and disagreement in the fundamentalist christian world. you ignore the Biblical necessity for priesthood authority & baptism that you discarded when you broke away from the catholics.
mulletthater 2 years ago
already answered about denominations...essentials unity, non-essentials liberty.
Going to church doesn't make a person a Christian anymore than being in a garage makes you a car.
Jesus is the only High Priest. We can boldly come to His throne of grace. There's only one mediator, it's Jesus.
Baptism or any work cannot save you. Faith in finished work of Jesus on the cross is the only way to heaven.
Catholics are mix of christianity and Roman paganism, not the orginal church.
johnyjamie 2 years ago
Another great point! The catholics who were the only ones who could have retained the priesthood authority to baptize lost it through deviating from Christ's church, then the protestants broke away, re-enforcing my point that you don't have the necessary priesthood to baptize, which is required to enter through the straight gate. Even Christ was baptized to show you the way. And now you deny the necessity for baptism. When did Christ ever say that baptism was no longer needed?
mulletthater 2 years ago
Jesus is the only Melchizedek priest because only he meets all the requirements stated in Heb 7-10.
The royal or holy priesthood belongs to all Christians. 1 Pet 2:5-10
Water baptism is our outward expression to the world of our inward spiritual rebirth and identification that we have become one with Jesus Christ.
Jesus' death alone paid for our sins (Rom 5:8; 2 Cor 5:21).
Jesus' payment for our sins is appropriated to our account by faith alone (Jn 3:16; Acts 16:31; Eph 2:8-9).

Did Jesus or His apostles wear these undergarments?
October31st1517 2 years ago
No, it's just typical Mormon legalism. Do this, don't do that to be worthy in God's sight. It's a cult. They need the underware to remember Jesus, but it's different Jesus altogether than the one of the bible that Christians worship and who lives in us!
johnyjamie 2 years ago
ahh yes, that indescribable, incomprehensible Christ-Spirit-God, all in one mysterious floating mass of goo out in the universe, and invented by a bunch of drunken men at the council of Nicea, who represented the catholic church which was founded by Constantine, who used to burn Christians at the stake to light his dinner parties, until he found it politically expedient to align with the Christians, and was baptized on his death bed. You are right, we don't believe in that non-biblical Jesus.

Zoofnick 2 years ago
It's cool. We can drop the 'magical underwear' line. There's more than an ample supply of other completely absurd things Mormons believe. Joseph Smith was a convicted fraud. No one ever saw those plates. He was unable to retranslate the missing text. He got EVERYTHING wrong about the lineage of native americans, black people, and everyone else. Was a racist and discriminatory organization until legally forced to be otherwise.
How can you put so much stock in such an organization?
analubalitious 2 years ago
Well, first off, the majority of your statements are false.
But the reason I "put so much stock in such an organization" is because of all the good it produces.
A rotten tree does not produce good apples.
Between the service projects that the church organizes for the communities (not just the church itself), the love that we preach to have for all people, and the general good attitude that the majority of us have, I would say that overall, the organization is a good one.
xandergamble 2 years ago
Which statement was false?
"A rotten tree does not produce good apples" - and a bad analogy does not make a good argument. If you want to reduce the church to a public service or charity, then so be it. You can give shelter and food to every homeless person, it doesn't make your other claims any more true. I've heard Hamas does a good job of getting kids off drugs, is that a good argument in favor of Hamas?

Are you saying that you believe the LDS church is a terrorist organization?
xandergamble 2 years ago
No, I'm saying that performing charity neither indicates the truth of its claims nor the over-all 'goodness' of the organization. Pointing to the charity work done by an organization does absolutely nothing to indicate the validity or big picture of the whole organization.
If you lower the bar from 'terrorist' to 'racist' or 'criminally insane' then yeah, I'd suggest that the LDS meets those titles.
analubalitious 2 years ago
If you lower the bar to 'racist' or 'criminally insane' then you could include all men that walk the face of the planet to a level of terrorism. Because we are all, at one point or another in our lives, guilty of prejudices of others based on what we think we perceive.
My question is, do you despise all religions and religious people? Or is it just the Mormons? And why have you come to such an opinion of us?
xandergamble 2 years ago
"No one ever saw those plates." Eleven other people saw those plates. Their names were: Oliver Cowdery; David Whitmer; Martin Harris; Christian Whitmer; Jacob Whitmer; Peter Whitmer, Jr.; John Whitmer; Hiram Page; Joseph Smith, Sr.; Hyrum Smith; and Samuel H. Smith.
As far as your other claims, have you actually read the book, or are you basing your arguments of hearsay?
xandergamble 2 years ago
Most of those names are of the Smith and Whitmer families (which automatically adds a level of suspicion).
Upon further review of what these 'witnesses' actually testified to; it appears that their threshold for 'witnessing' something is low enough to include visions like dreams. I can't find a single instance of someone saying anything like, 'Here are the plates in my hands, their dimensions are X, their weight is X, the markings look like X,. so on and so forth." Help me if I missed it.
