Since Fox used to carry the X-Files, I wonder if some sort of "You want to believe" mashup is possible. I am, alas, no clever enough to get to the finish line on that one.
This guy is from Utah. He is an ex-Mormon that very cleverly makes fun of Utah Mormons, the dichotomy of MAGA (Mormon) Christians (and how they can’t see the irony), Utah culture (influenced by Mormonism), and is an all around pot stirrer that I thoroughly enjoy. I too am ex-Mormon.
Also ex-mormon (raised in it as a child). They do some genuinely good things and can be nice people, but... it wasn't until I left that I was able to see just how cult-like they are. They use insular practices to make their members only feel welcome among other church members (including sending 18-21 yr olds on missions). . So much of their teachings is *just* plausible enough to pass casual scrutiny, but falls apart when you start to dig. Baptisms, temple rituals, marriage, plan/salvation etc.
Yes, but Mormonism is a high demand religion. Other Christian sects like jehovas witness and crazy evangelicals are also high demand but a lot of Christian sects are somewhat low key. Show up on Sunday, throw some cash at the pastor, and hear a message. With high demand Christian sects they take your whole life hostage. All choices are filtered through the church with thought systems they installed.

One of my proudest moments was finding out how to block Fox News from my YouTube account.

Ah yes, the documented IN COURT home of... "Our stories are too stupid to be believable".

This guy is doing a great job of mimicking the smug fuckfacedness of Fox actors, too

What are the odds the Supreme Court Justice in favor of separate drinking fountains is Clarence Thomas?

Yeesh! "Badpans & Catheters" is a dogahit title for the "Bedknobs & Broomsticks" sequel!

Mormonism is a cult and it wasn't till I learned what they do to the women in Temple ceremonies that I determined it is 100% a cult

It is definitely a cult. Are you familiar with the cult BITE model? Cults control behavior, information, thoughts, emotions.

That's basically all religion, lol.
