Ack The Mormons found me

[Ivan Seeking]

Ack! The Mormons found me!

I could hardly believe it. I haven't stepped foot in an LDS church in twenty-five years, and today I got a letter asking if I'm still a member! :rofl: I have no idea how they even found me. Surely there are plenty of Ivan Seekings in the country. I know for a fact that there was no forwarding information available from that time.

They're probably who the student loan companies hire to track down people delinquent on repaying the loans! :rofl:

They want you back. Isn't it nice to be wanted?

I don't know about that. The FBI might want him, too.

Might also depend on whether the sign also says, "Dead or Alive" on it. :uhh:

They want you back.

They wouldn't if they read my posts in S&D!

...of course, now that I think about it, they do believe in ETs.

The Mormons will claim you dead or alive - even if you're Jewish.

 

[dontdisturbmycircles]

hahaha , they must have put some effort into finding you or else they have the wrong guy. Is it the same LDS church that you went to 25 years ago?

 

[Ivan Seeking]

No, this was from the main office in Utah, but they definitely got the right guy. But I have to wonder how many Ivan Seekings got my letter.

I think the Mormons are one of the largest collectors of personal information in the world.
Its to do with having to know how many souls there have been and being able to pay to convert your dead ancestors.
Perhaps they've just bought a new electronic list from someone else or maybe new software that allows them to cross-reference other lists.
Either way a swift name change is in order.

Mormons...ugh. I live about a mile away from the largest mormon temple in the world http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_D.C._Temple" . It's actually a very pretty building.

They know not to knock on my door anymore.

 

[Mk]

Wow that's a cool looking building.

You know, in a weird Wizard-of-Oz way.

funny stuff from the Wiki link:

The famous graffiti in the D.C. metropolitan area first appeared on the outer loop of the I-495, the Capital Beltway, on a railroad bridge near the Washington D.C. Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in Kensington, Maryland, beginning in late 1973. The sections of the bridge match exactly the number of letters in the graffiti message, "Surrender Dorothy". It was graffitied by an anonymous artist and was removed by the Maryland State Police after pressure from the Church; however, it has been periodically replaced in various forms by similarly anonymous persons since then.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

...surrender Dorothy...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I lived in northern Virginia through the 70's and 80's, and although I've seen the "Surrender Dorothy" on that bridge several times, I never got the joke unitl now!

Heh heh.
