WTF? If you don't look attractive, the Holy Ghost will not be able to 'influence' you?
He only bothers with dames who are hot enough for his tastes?
This is Heavenly Father we are talking about. The one who picked Mary, fair above all other...

You have heard the Faith-Promoting Rumor that the Holy Ghost is actually Joseph Smith, haven't you?
Mormonism ceased being a compelling topic for me when I finally came to terms with its transformation from a personality cult into a combination of a real estate company, a SuperPac, and Westboro Baptist Church. - Kishkumen

Ah. Well at least that would mean that he would be able to 'influence' lots and lots of sister missionaries at the same time. Indeed, the more the merrier.

Not the standard for doctrine. However, since publication is, it is doctrine. I recommend quoting in context though.

Yep. It has been the official position of the Mormon Church since 1973 that "Fatties" shouldn't wear belts or knee socks. Isn't it wonderful? Isn't it marvelous?
