MOs


From our friends at lightplanet.com:

Many of the gentile persuasion in the Salt Lake City area have taken to calling members of the Church, "MOs."

Well, the truth is that being called a MO isn't so bad. While it's not exactly a term of endearment, MO beats some of the other things I've been called--lots of them by fellow MOs. To ease the tension, between MOs and gentiles, I've come up with a brief MO Lexicon. Practice these terms, learn to be comfortable with your MO self.

MO - Mormon
NO MO - Non-Mormon
MO NO MO - Apostate
