MNRU Poll of the week (available only on Anchor)
Is the word “Mormon” a major victory for Satan?
- Fetch no! The thousands of people who joined the Church after viewing the expensive, worldwide, and Church Sponsored ‘I am a Mormon campaign’ prove it.
- Absolutely! As Elder David Bednar recently remarked at the National Press Club luncheon, we can’t let this pejorative of our enemies define our faith.
- I doubt it. Remember, the prophet Joseph Smith said the word Mormon means ‘more good.’
- No way! President Thomas Monson was proud to be a Mormon boy, and I am proud to support the MormoNewsRoundup!
- You bet! and in order to thwart Satan, we need to immediately change the official name of the ‘Book of Mormon’ to the ‘Book of Moroni’s Dad’
- Yes. The word ‘Mormon’ is basically the same as the ‘N word.’
- With all the suffering in the world, what difference does it make?
