At first I thought it had to be a spoof, but nope. Twelve Mormon Missionaries walk into a bar...oops, I mean twelve Mormon Missionaries returned from saving souls and then stripped off their shirts for the new Mormon Men On A Mission calendar. Sporting plucked eyebrows, seriously coiffed hair, strategically placed make-up and trimmed treasure trails, Mitt's storm troopers are hoping that perfect abs, meaty pecs, lightly fluffed armpits and perky Salt Lake City nipples will have us all rushing to embrace the Church of Latter Day Saints--and, I suppose, voting for Mitt. Works for the MSNBC reporter and works for me as well.
These missionaries have assumed the calendar position in the hopes that it will dispel stereotypes about Mormons. Having watched the videos and listened to the interviews, all I can say is that my belief in the stereotype that many Mormon men are hunky, hot closet queens has totally been put to bed.
You can purchase the calendar at mormonsexposed.com. Do visit the website whether or not you intend to purchase 12 semi-nude Mormon Missionaries for your on-your-knees praying to God pleasure. It's chock full of great info on each model's missionary position and includes an interactive photo gallery where you can slide your mouse across a Mormon man's white-shirted body and strip him bare for your viewing pleasure. Oh, and don't forget to pick up a few items of hot Mormon man apparel! I can't imagine wearing anything else to the clubs and bars--at least until the Rabbi's of the Yeshiva release their calendars and T-shirts.
Oh Mitt, let me lick your Great Salt Lake!
Sometimes these posts just write themselves, if you know what I mean.

To Haley.
1.- These boys are member of the church and they are Returned missionaries, which means that they were on a mission but not at the moment.
2.- The LDS Church (Later-day Saints) does not excomunicate people just for taking the shirt off, and as far as my knowledge goes the calendar is not gay oriented.
3.- To say that the Church does not tolerated or allowed gay people is a big fat lie. One the Church does not allowed or forbid anything, it teach principles and invite people to live by them, if you decided not to do so they encourage to live by them as last result they used excomunication and when people intentionally does something really bad. It is kind of having a Gym membership (though please don't think I am saying the church is a gym). I think is time to leave clear that the church does not hate gay people, but also they teach that sex between men and women is ordained by God and after marriage other than that is everyone opinion.
For everyone else, the undergarments are not supposed to take off other than for Sex, Shower, Swimming and Sports (or training). Catholic priest and nuns were special clothes under the same principles.
And lastly, I think that it is not a problem whether these boys are LDS (Mormon or not) I think that the point is that people considered this offensive because is representing a whole community. If a Catholic priest were doing something similar probably people will raise comments to.
I don't think that the issue in here is using a belief in order to make a profit. Just a question, would there be so much controversy if the calendar were call "Boys 2008" and will show nothing related to their belief?

lol, I have never heard this before in my entire life (21yrs) "perky Salt Lake City nipples" but I will be sure to quote you, Richard.
Thanks for throwing the curve balls once in awhile!

Wow Richard. The video featuring hot mormon studs, did more to change my evil ways than any Exodus weekend revival ever could. I now find myself attracted to women and young, hairless, gay, mormon men. In the words of Larry Craig, they are "naughty, naughy, boys" and I'd like to give them all a sponge bath and a good spanking. Is that so wrong?

Okay, here is the obvious question -- are there any pictures of the guys in their church-issued Mormon underoos? Seriously, I'd buy the calendar just to see the holy undergarments.

lol. i love it. My entire family is mormon and id love to see thier reaction to this. And to your question Araon no they wont show them in thier garments becuase they are supposed to be under your clothes at all times and only taken off for what they call the three "S" sports, sex and .. i dont remember the third but the calander probably fits in there somewhere. but you get the picture.

My grandmother would faint if she knew these young Mormon men were like this nowadays!! Let me tell you, Mormon men are no different than anyone else, they just try to hide behind their cult, oops, I mean religious beliefs. I wonder if I can have my excommunication reversed and join back in - nah, not even worth it. I prefer my man to not be brainwashed.

I don't believe for one second that these guys are truly members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. If there is a chance that they are, then they are a disgrace and should be ashamed!

Right Artie...Mormons are "just like normal people," except for the fact that they believe through obedience to the LDS church teachings, they can become a god over another planet in the afterlife , procreate celestial babies through celestial sex, and fill their planet with those celestial babies. You call that normal? I call that having a god-complex that is un-Christian, that serves the purpose only of the LDS leaders/prophet to control a large mass of people. How do church leaders benefit? Look at the MONEY that mormons are mandated to give, in order to remain in good standing (not with God, with the LDS church.) *I love the idea of the calendar. It will get an official slap on the wrist from Salt Lake City, but church leaders will be secretly happy about the publicity.

I think that this article is DISGUSTING. I do not, for one second, believe that these men are actualy members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day saints, and they are certainly not currently serving missions at this time. If this is truly a stunt pulled by Mitt Romney to gain votes simply because he is of the LDS faith, then he is a sad man and a disgrace to the already disgraceful politics. As for the comments above concerning the LDS faith, if you are really interested in learning about the actions and beliefs of "Mormons", please check out LDS.org. There is much information concerning doctrine, leaders, and Temples that is more reliable then rumors and other information you find on the internet.

Ok, Al, I understand that you may have some frustration with the LDS church, but that does not mean it is acceptable for you to make that comment in such an uneducated way. I am not a member of that church, or any church for that matter, but I still do my homework before accusing and insinuating things about a large group of people. To call a group of people un-christian is in fact an un-christian thing to do, isn't that the same god complex you hate, saying who is and who isn't christian.
And the money that these members give goes mainly to helping individuals and communities, whether it is something like local homelessness, or a Hurricane relief effort. The Tithe is a helpful and insightful thing, which helps a person go beyond themselves and give to the greater good.
All I'm saying is, before you are so quick to judge, please do some actual homework on the issue, and look at someone elses point of view besides just yourself. Your comments are rude and judgemental. So in my opinion, they are also unnecessary. Thank you.

I would like to make sure that everyone knows, these are not real Mormon men. These men are from the Reformed Mormon church. Real Mormon men do not sink that low. Being Gay will get you excommunicated from the real Mormon church.

you know thisarticle is disgusting as earlier in the comments if some 1 isgay they do get x comunicated and mormon guys arent going to sink this low also is this mitt a member thatsnot even right to post something ike this and yes i am a memer of the church and i think its wrong of some of you ppl to judge us in a way wen we pay tithing the church leders dont demand it from u or send a pot around so ppl could look at u how much u give its either 10 % of wat u make or in some cases as much as u are able to give and the church leaders do not do not smile at the publicity that this would get they would probably frown but the money goes toward helping families out like some 1 mentioned erlier but to say we are un christian like and to say we are a cult dats just disgusting every1 is disgusting especially if u are a member and is loving this im ashamed

This is to Ami, when you said "And the money that these members give goes mainly to helping individuals and communities, whether it is something like local homelessness, or a Hurricane relief effort. The Tithe is a helpful and insightful thing, which helps a person go beyond themselves and give to the greater good." That is simply not so, their tithe money stays with in their churches.
In reply to all those out there who said that you don't believe they are mormon . . . why because they've done something your church is against? Nobodys perfect I find it sad that you feel like they are not a part of your relgion simply because they've done something you disagree with. Many people believe in certain denominations but disagree with some of their teachings, it does not mean they don't belong to that denomination.
And in reply to Mer, when you said "no they wont show them in thier garments becuase they are supposed to be under your clothes at all times and only taken off for what they call the three "S" sports, sex and .. i dont remember the third but the calander probably fits in there somewhere. but you get the picture." I would just like to inform you that the calander does not fall under any of those three categories , least of all the one you couldn't remember .

Cherise; The tithing money does go out side the church there are audit reports every year. the church was the first relief group to for huricane Katrina, they send millions of dollers worth of food clothing and medicle supplies to needy countries every year.

the tithing money goes all over the world. audit reports are released yearly to confirm your ignorance. the church was the first relief orginization in huricane katrina and they send millions of dollers worth of food clothing and medical supplies to needy countries every year.
I was glad to read in your last comment that you acknowledge that this calendar is something the church would not approve of. realizing that why can't you look at the actions for what they are insted of showing your hatred for a group you apperantly have a lot unfounded opinions about.
