Famous Mormons

The other day I heard a funny website on the radio in passing. It wasn’t an add or anything, but a radio host just simply dropped the address as a comical reference. The website he was joking about is called Famous Mormons and can be found online at www.famousmormons.net. While on the site you can search through different categories such as Mormon executives, producers, politicians, actors, etc. I spent a few minutes poking around the site and discovered that there are some really famous Mormons out there such as: David Neeleman (founder and CEO of Jet Blue), Jon Heder (aka Napoleon Dynamite), Rick Schroder, Gladys Knight, and many more.

I had fun poking around on the site and I couldn’t help but think of the movie “Singles Ward” where the one actor keeps throwing out lines like…I heard that this person or that person is Mormon or just got baptized. The other thought I had was how many of the “famous” Mormons listed on this site do a really good job at representing the church. You can just simply tell that some of them are proud to be LDS and are not afraid to let it be known. Props to them!!!

    Michael and William both hinted at this. If the religion wants to curtail hyper- activity, the religion needs to change, not the people. The religion would still have a few hyper- actives, but then they would be the exception, not the rule. That’ s not to say that hyper- actives are the majority in the religion except among those who actually self- identify as Mormon and are active. Best estimates would put the inactives or non- identifiers at close to 6 million of the 12 million (see Rick Phillips’ s and…

    I think many Americans are sick and tired of a president who puts his own brand of God above America. And I think Mormons have something special to prove, given how one of their profits, um, rebelled against America. But I don’ t think that any religion has a monopoly on crazy. So, yeah, I kind of agree with Washingtonians for Romney that a Mormon can become president. It might be a handicap , though.
