Mormon Tattoos

Mormon tattoos? Given the LDS church's counsel against tattooing, you might assume that they don't exist, but au contraire. Here's some Mormon themed ink from around the web:

This is a tattoo of President Gordon B. Hinckley, 15th President of the LDS church. Who actually spoke about not getting tattoos on more than one occasion. Maybe this person needed constant reminder of President Hinckley's words.

This gentleman held an Ebay auction for prime real estate...on his face. He brought in $15,000.00 for this tattoo of Mormon presidential candidate Mitt Romney's logo. We're not clear on if he paid tithing on any of the proceeds.

Honor code unapproved, but BYU school spirit nonetheless.

Got a Mormon seminary test on Latter-day prophets? This might help.

We bet this person's favorite hymn might be, "I Love to See the Temple."

CTR means Choose The Right...as in choose the right tattoo?

Is this the place for Brigham Young Tattoos?

Clearly proud to be a Latter-day Saint.

So what does a Mormon with tattoos have to say? On SiZ Radio, we recently interviewed Al Fox, who joined the LDS church three years ago and sports some pre-baptism-ink. Her advice to folks thinking about tattoos was; "don't do it."

What do you think about ink?

Gangnam Style Done Mormon Daddy Style

Gangnam Style fever has been sweeping the world, but in case you are not one of the over 680 million people who have viewed the video you can watch it here. This should explain why you may have seen people looking like they are riding imaginary ponies in random places like the grocery store.

When something goes viral the way Psy's Gangnam Style has, you best believe there will be parodies (the Sistas at least always have our fingers crossed for it). 

Check out this Gangnam Style parody; Mormon Daddy Style. This is what happens when Daddy stays home with the kids y'all, they end up on YouTube.

MORMON DADDY STYLE

The Mormon Moment: It's a Wrap!

Someone asked us; What are Mormons going to do now that the "Mormon Moment" is over? We're not quite sure what those who are not members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints actually thought the Mormon Moment was.  To us the Mormon Moment was a catchy way of saying that Mormon topics were trending, and trend they did; on Google, Yahoo, the news, media, press, online, at work, at home and at play.

Other than experiencing along with the rest of the world our LDS faith being thrust into the lime-light, we don't really think it changed much of the day-to-day aspects of life for most Mormons. The Mormon Moment wasn't a job was it, cause if so, we are owed some back wages!

Now that the presidential election is over and Governor Romney has said his gracious farewell, the press is letting everyone know that the Mormon Moment is over. So what will the Mormons do?

If you're Governor Romney or the Mormons who voted for him, some of us will be sad at first, but not for long. Mormons are a people filled with faith and hope. Y'all we have survived an extermination order, a pioneer trek to the desert and like Brotha Romney said in his gratitude-filled concession speech, we know how to pray. P. Diddy said: "Can't nobody take my pride, can't nobody hold me down, oh no, I got to keep on movin'!" And that's how the Mormons roll!

We will make Jell-o and some of us will put carrots in it. Don't judge us, we were doing it before the Mormon Moment, during the Mormon Moment and we sho ain't stoppin' now.

We will still come knocking at you're door. And now that young men can serve missions at 18 instead of 19 and young women at 19 instead of 21, there will be plenty more of us to do the Lord's work. So be nice and don't slam the door in our face, and maybe offer to feed us.

We will drive minivans. As long as they are making them, you will see Mormons driving them. Ain't no shame in our game.

We are still going to argue over whether it's ok to drink caffeine. We thought that the LDS church's statement would have stopped the debates, but umm...no.

We will  get married...to only ONE woman. (We hope the Mormon Moment has at least cleared this up.)

We will do our best to maintain our values and standards. 

We will worship.

We will serve.

What we are saying is that Mormons are just gonna do what we do, we're gonna do us. Mormons may have had a moment, but we weren't Mormons for a moment. So don't worry world, our moment in the spotlight has not gone to our heads. We're still who we always were, your brothas and sistas, neighbors and friends, who just like you; are trying to be like Jesus.

Smile - Jesus Loves You,
