As some of you know I'm finishing my residency to be a psychologist. I meet weekly with various clinical supervisors to review my therapy cases. One one rotation I've been seeing some couples. Here was a recent conversation we had when we were discussing one couple's unorthodox religious beliefs.
him: "Hmm, weird stuff. What religion are they?" me: "I'm not really sure. I think they attend an evangelical church." him: [Very condescendingly] "What are they -- MOrmons?" me: "Uh no. But I am." him: [very long pause] "Oh."

Lindsay: Well, did it work for those people? Tobias: No, it never does. I mean, these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might, but...but it might work for us. |

Nice. Nothing like making a superior look like a bigoted jerk, eh?

I change mine from time to time. Animal is one of my favorite muppets, so I'm giving him some face time.

Since danimal brought up awkward Mormon moments, I will share one of mine. In Memphis I wrote for a local fitness magazine. I was meeting with the editor who is extremely intelligent, even in Mensa, but lacks quite a bit on the social side. Anyway, I was talking to him about some articles we had coming up and it soon became obvious that he no longer was listening to me.
Me: I feel like I am talking to myself. Did you even hear what I just said to you? Him: No, I'm sorry. I was just staring at your funny Mormon underwear. Apparently from where he was sitting across from me in the room he could see right up my shorts. |

Well, one of my good clients and friends, stated to me, before learning of my religion.
You know I hate religionists, but most of all I hate Mormons. F... Mormons. "You know I'm Mormon." Well F you too, you know I'm joking. Of course, at least you can guide me through hell. Okay, we're a little rougher crowd out here.

1. Bitter 2. Disinterested Regardless of which category they are in, there is no reason for them to be inquisitive. One of the reasons I like travelling is because people outside of Utah are more inquisitive and ask me about my religion and ask questions about Mormonism. |
