this is one of my most funny moment in southparkhistory...god loves you, he is the alaround, but he need your money to akzept that you belive ...hahaha
Mormons believe in three "kingdoms": 1. Celestial Kingdom, where the top 10% or so go (requires temple marriage, baptism, and many others). This is where God is. 2. Terrestrial Kingdom, where the "good people" who weren't Mormons go. Most Christians and average Mormons go here. Jesus visits periodically 3. Telestial Kingdom, where bad people go. It's still better than earth. Lastly, there is Outer Darkness, where apostates (people who left the church) go. This would be like traditional hell.
It seems most people who have posted a comment dont see the funny side of this video, its meant to be a joke, written by an ex-Mormon! I laughed so much I cried. Its the sigh at the end that really got me going, when the whole lot of them realised they had been in the wrong religion all their lives. A classic.
Truth isn't altered by what you believe. There either is a hell or isn't one.
What people don't realize is that hell isn't punishment just for "choosing the wrong religion", as if they were all equally viable. Hell is punishment for sinning, for being sinful, for living in sin, and never wanting to leave sin. Rejecting God is a sin like the others, though perhaps more grievous.
Jesus, the Man-God, went through hell so that we might not have to. More than that, he glorifies us with him. =Gospel
Ya i dont understand why people would say that mormons would go to hell. Like their just like christians, they believe and love god as much as everybody! They have good principles and everything. I dont want to fight anyone online but does anybody go against that?
Because people might be a little surprised in the final analysis or judgment day as to which church was the right one. If you're one of the many who think all "Mormons" will go to hell, this cartoon might be your worst nightmare also.
Hey this is South Park, not reality. People from all religions will make it (including some "Mormons"). South Park animators are just making fun of everyone's (except LDS) worst nightmare. I guess we'll find out soon enough. :)
beleive in south park mormons it speaks the truth rofl , the dont believe in historical fact so they should just start taking southpark into their doctrine now lol
Joseph Smith translated the golden plates with the help of Oliver Cowdery. He was not a liar, a theif, a murdurer or any of the things which any-one here has called him, unless some one has called him a prophet of the Lord, which to my knowledge, no-one has. The church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (the proper name for what you all call "the mormon church")is not racisit neither is it a cult. Now will you all go get a reality check and come back when you can talk sense.
A pro-mormon video? What!? Are you watching the same video as the rest of us? It's an anti-religious video. It could have as easily been zionism, or ancient greek Gods that get you into 'Heaven'. lol
I just find it funny that all these people who are bagging out the Mormons are even looking at this video...if Mormons bother you so much- why are you even looking at a pro- mormon video?
Its a great and funny video, yes I do understand it is a joke, but it doesn´t matter... its true anaway... except, mormons, don´t believe in Hell, Hell is not a place.
A loving Father in Heaven would not send his children to a evil enemy who will burn them if they choose the wrong way...
We believe "Hell" is a state of mind... you cant save yourself.
You will understand that the only way to receice peace from your own consience is through Christ.
latter day saints believe in hell but we call it outer darkness. if you do something really bad you cant go to Heaven, just like a bad kid cant go to the funfare. you can i believe be redeemed but i will have to look more into it.
I don't believe this video is a commentary on the Mormon religion specifically. I think they picked it as the "winning" religion because it was the most unexpected and surprising.
It's funny how a 50 second segment of a South Park episode can be so representative of my religious views.
guys calm down. it was a funny clip. its southpark and as such i hope you dont call it mormon fact or theology, cuz its not, but it was just kinda funny. calm down.
What the heck is this if you are so curious ask for MISIONARIES... believe me if you look for answeres about mormons there not hard to find... ask me for example or ask around... DO NOT LISTEN TO TELEVISION!!!
Ok... is it true that Joseph Smith read from gold tablets he had concealed in a hat in order to write the book of Mormon? Is it true that, until the civil rights movement in the 1960's... Mormons believed that the only way black people could get into heaven were as slaves? Is it true that after Mormons die they reign over entire planets?
Ok so he put a seer stone in a hat and interpreted from golden tablets... what's the difference? He still read from gold tablets that nobody else saw, and when he was done he had to return them to an angel. How nice. Get the f' outta here.
You just said no one ever saw the gold tablets, joe smith claimed that after he translated them he had to return them to angels.... what the hell is "them"? that you're talking about. I'm not a moron, you have no idea how to string a thought together. I know no gold tablets actually existed you fuckstick, I'm not a mormon
I'm a college graduate, I've had many composition and logic classes... I'm pretty sure I have a brain too; typing would be pretty difficult without one. It's nice to see that you really can't make an argument that holds any water... instead, you've called me a moron... twice; very mature for a 37 year-old, very convincing as well.
I wasn't bragging... the person above me said to get an education, I was simply saying I already have one. And isn't it a bit hypocritical to call someone a moron for bragging about their education and then in the very next sentence brag that you have two college degrees and a law degree? You moron
"Ok so he put a seer stone in a hat and interpreted from golden tablets... what's the difference? He still read from gold tablets that nobody else saw, and when he was done he had to return them to an angel. How nice. Get the f' outta here."
Ends with 'Get the f' outta here'.
What a moron, a non-sensical comment ending with an insult and now you cry foul when I call you what you are, a MORON.
What's non-sensical about it? Once again you're showing how much of a stupid hypocrite you are for criticizing me for ending my comment in an "insult" and then insulting me by calling me a moron. From the looks of your comment board it seems I'm not the only one who thinks you come off as a bit of a fuckin dickhead.
Wrong wrong wrong. There are 11 witnesses of the golden plates, you can find their testimonies of it in the introduction of the Book Of Mormon. If you had bothered to read the BOM even a little tiny bit you would know that.
It's interesting how you put a spin on the BOM and the history of the mormons.
Actually, let's go back to the initial story that young Joseph Smith used and told and retold.
The story changed from meeting one Solitary 'Angel' to meeting with 'god and christ' to meeting with several 'Angels'.
If young Joseph Smith was telling this tale and changing the facts as often as he did in describing an accident he would be called an unreliable witness.
ok then... tell me an example, flat out and whole true about Joseph doing all those sins. and im sorry that no one ever took into account that you listened to every word Joseph said and that you know he changed his story. you are a retard. the first time he told the story was to his father and in that telling he saw God the father AND his son Jesus Christ prove any of that crap that you say and maybe some mormons will take you as more than another fall away that couldnt follow the rules.
The fact that any retard in the year 2008 would believe that anyone, anytime, anywhere met a fictional character called god is proof enough that they fall within their category comfortably.
As for the mormon religion and it's charletan, lying, cheating, murdering, conman, snake oil saleman, and convict Joseph Smith, his history tells enough about this sleazy bastard that I have nothing else to add.
As being a fall away, wrong again ElDouche, I was never a mormon.
ok then... tell me some examples of all that crap you say he did. and i never said that ALL of the bashers were X-mormons, but i do think the rest are just doing it because they dont understand them, and just want to make them more hated then they are now. and if mormons are so evil, why do they give more humanitarian aid than any other orginazation? you just get kicks out of bashing them. if you dont believe in god then why bother bashing people who do if it makes no difference to anything?
I would rather fall withing this category than be brainwashed to the point of accepting the teachings of a founder - Joseph Smith who was a Liar, Cheat, Adulterer, Con-Man, Convict, and Murderer.
It would embarrass me to accept and follow a man of low character such as Joseph Smith.
It would tax my intellect to accept false writings and I would be unwilling to accept the teachings of a racist organizations / cult.
3 of the witnesses recieved conformation of the golden plates through an angel, 8 more were shown the golden plates and were allowed to feel them. All 13 witnesses never denied their testimonies even after they left the church, and were persecuted to deny their testimonies. They testified of it's truthfullness on their death beds.
fun place to bash religion hu? so what was that comment in the declaration of independence that we are free to worship GOD as we please?? lay off guys, what you got nothen better to do?
with all of the people that hate mormons in the world, are you really going to get on the internet where anyone in the world can put anything they want? not the smartest move. you want to here the real story just ask me.
Go look up pentagram on wikipedia, go check out the history of the pentagram as it pertains to Christianity. Just because today its commonly associated with devil worship, doesn't mean that is where it came from or what it means. Same thing with the swastika. Its meaning was hijacked and corrupted. After you do all that, I know a good doctor that can help surgically remove your foot from your mouth.

All of the damned Christians believed they were saved through Jesus; they lived in accordance with their best understanding of God's intent.
It's silly that revealed religions think they're the only ones who know the 'truth.'
It's even sillier that sects within a single religion can think that the others are 'wrong.'
