Taldarin Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 That seems to be encouraging women to be lesbian.Seriously. Title - "Eternity is a lot of time"Below - "Live it with a friend"Below that - "Remember that the gospel is for everyone."With two girls alone in a field?Yeah, you can't make ads like that anymore.
pam Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 (edited) What is this from? This would not be an official Mormon ad as this doesn't reflect the position of the Church if that it what is to represent. Edited January 27, 2010 by pam
Dravin Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 That seems to be encouraging women to be lesbian.Seriously. No, not seriously. I think somebody is projecting what they want to see onto it.Title - "Eternity is a lot of time"Below - "Live it with a friend"Below that - "Remember that the gospel is for everyone."With two girls alone in a field?Yes because they are friends, thus the live it with a friend. It's encouraging people to be missionaries.What is this from? This would not be an official Mormon ad as this doesn't reflect the position of the Church.I can swear I've seen it in English. I think it's legit. Taldrain's interpretation on the other hand... not so much.

This would not be an official Mormon ad as this doesn't reflect the position of the Church if that it what is to represent.It's in my stake center too actually.What about it doesn't reflect about the representation of the Church?Eternity is a long time, bring a friend?It's saying, reach out to those around you....durrr....

Just_A_Guy Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 It's from a (very old) New Era. EDIT: Looks like Dravin beat me to it

I was referring to the OP's interpretation of it. No reason to be condescending.
Just_A_Guy Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 I remember as a kid, when camcorders were still something of a novelty, one of our church activities was to make "video Mormonads" (they were usually modeled after the old Homefront commercials). I won't talk about the one we made, except that it ended with: "Brought to you by the Great and Abominable Church--the Whore of All The Earth."
Taldarin Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Posted January 27, 2010 It was a joke, which was lamentably missed, apparently. I was just trying to make the point that we can't really make ads like that anymore. It's far too easy to take the wrong way. And that's weird how what it says in spanish is actually pretty different from the english version 0.o
john doe Posted January 27, 2010 Report Posted January 27, 2010 Well the joke's on you now. Thread closed.
