Some people are really confused about our church. They hear ''tithe'' and jump to the conclusion that they rake money for personal gain. That is false! None of our leaders are paid for their service, all of it goes to building temples, curches, humanitarian aid, and production of missionary material. Also, Chad Hardly was excommunicated for representing the church in a terrible and false light.
Mormon Mammon. When I learned of Donny Osmond being a guest host on the UK National Lottery Show, it shocked me. I couldn't understand how such an active LDS member would blatantly associate with such gambling. That was the biggest put off for me after all the hard work I did amongst family and friends to promote the church and its standards on gambling.
I realised soon after that Tithe Dollars are the only real standard for LDS inc.
As a caveat to what I wrote, a few minutes earlier, I will add that, although the Mormon Crutch church is very, very Gestapo-like, in their (leader-dog) methods, I--myself--would not promote any form of semi-nudity, like that.
In the "natural world", the average businessman knows that "sex sells". And, the subtle message of Chad Hardy is that "mormon missionary men are as sexy as the next guy". Or, in other words....SEX SELLS.
It was a "spoof" (for Chad) in 2008. Now, it's just business!
I like the last phrase of the vid (a quote of the Mormon Crutch Leaders): The ....Church has a responsibility to "maintain order".
So did The German High Command, during the Nazi era.
Better get cracking, there, Uncle Boyd: you and your (Kraut) genes have a lot of "maintaining", to do: right down there, where Mormons live---inside their very skins.
In 1999 God sent a tornado to Mormon headquarters in downtown Salt Lake City. It was a sign that all is NOT well in Zion. Learn more by searching on "The LDS Awakening" video.
I'm not a "Mormon", thank goodness, but it seems to me that this calender should be condemned by Mormons and other Christian and religious ppl as well. Why? Because these men are being objectified- in other words, made into objects of female sexual fantasies- and as such are demeaned precisely because they are not objects but subjects, not things but persons.
I do not understand the freaking out over pictures of the Human body. According to the Mormon faith God created humans in his own image, and admiration of that Image is far from sin, rather I would consider it complimenting God's handy work. I also think God doesn't mind. Don't believe me, read the Song of Solomon.
@petdetail To compound this gross out, the reporter-ette says he wants to "Go one step Further" and "he wants to release a calender of sexy Mormon Moms..." When you have a homosexual calender, Mormon moms is not one step further. This calender is the bottom of the barrel. The two do not compare. homosexual males and Mormon moms are not a comparison.
I have no love for Mormons , yet I think the guy doing the calender and the Moron models are complete idiots. What did this Moron expect the church to do
Mormon control and censorship, nothing new here. Challenge your Mormon friends to examine facts outside of "faith promoting history" they likely won't do it even though it was written by true prophets and apostles. If they do they will realize its a false religion. Mormonsim revealed: Pay pray and obey, no thinking...oh and no masterbation or it will make you gay...dear blacks we now allow you to hold priesthood after the 70's, but gays it will take more pressure before we acknoweldge you.
He spits in the face of the standards of modesty set by the church and is disciplined appropriately for his actions.. how exactly does this make him a hero LikaStar?
Ha Ha, that is funny. Who gives a rat's ass what the church says. They don't run your life. That religion is a Cult any way so they've done you a favour for booting you out. Good luck with the calender.
I'm gay and yes, I would buy it! There is something sexy about mormon missionaries with their typical apparel. They are so nice and neat - and usually cute too - that it just makes it more exiting.
Bravo Chad Hardy! You will prevail over time. Your opponents may be well-funded, but require mental training wheels for the electrical short circuit going on in their flat, little heads.
from watching him and seeing what was hanging on his walls and the calendar itself; its very likely he's gay and they kicked him out for that. but to get free publicity, he claimed it was b/c of the calendar.
lol he talks about RESPECT? what about respect towards God in publishing lustful pictures of people, for other to look at? Thats fuel for breaking a commandment right there.
His decision is risky. On his website he said that he's an RM. I dont know if his decision foe leaving the Church is unfortunate. Maybe he just got a motivation most of us cannot understand. I fear that he has sacrificed more relevant stuff.
Nobody takes the time to produce a calendar and not make money. If that were totally true.. his business partners could have cared less... and he could have backed down. But like he said.. he has partners to consider.
It was all about the money. And this just made it more profitable for him.
MrNirom What about The Marriot Family who make money from selling Pornography in their hotels. They are not disciplined for that and neither are their tithes rejected. The LDS church loves MAMMON. Maybe Chad wasn't a tithe payer otherwise they would have turned a blind eye and collected from him.
"JS instigated polygamy so he could have sex with women as young as 14. That's not propaganda, that's what happened."
Yes, that is propaganda. DNA evidence indicated it was a lie! The court of the US said it was a LIE. The sworn testimonies of many of these women said it was a LIE!
Mormon missionaries uphold very high standards. They are representatives of the Savior, Jesus Christ. If Chad Hardy's intent was to show good 'Mormons' in a more 'worldly' light then yes, he has succeeded...and all of that for a profit.
No ill will either...just wish he realized that certain consequences are possible when one tries to redefine 'well-known' standards which remain constant in the midst of the world's declining values.
Profit? You are kidding me, right? After publishing, design, photography, marketing and retail cuts I doubt there's much left. The missionary models didn't get paid, instead they chose a favorite charity to donate their 'share' to.
If Hardy does make any money off this, I doubt it's anything to write home about. I'm sure it takes a lot of work to manage this project.
As for everything else you said, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
"the calendar was the real reason for excommunication is very dishonest."
The dishonesty here is the LDS Church. They don't want it known it was the calendar. He was asked if had sex outside wedlock, trying to get him on anything.
"Chad let everyone believe he was an active Mormon."
The calendar isn't about Hardy. It's about the missionaries. They were active, having just completed missions.
When asked, Hardy told the truth. The church only gives a generalized comment.
Chad Hardy left the Mormon church many years ago. The LDS church only made it official! Chad was allowing himself to be portrayed as an active wholesome member!!

"It's a fantastic calendar"
it could very well be. to pretend like the calendar was the real reason for excommunication is very dishonest.
Chad let everyone believe he was an active Mormon. So the church treated him like an active Mormon and excommunicated him for immorality.
"when women are exploited by men"
that isn't true. Nobody pitched a fit when men were shown in their underwear across from temple square, but they did when women were!
