Maybe you ought to surf on over to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mormonbid.com&quot;&gt;MormonBid.com&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;GayBay&lt;/i&gt;

Save your money.  It sounds like fun, but ebay will hit you with a cease &amp;amp; desist before you even get the confirmation notice from your registrar.  They demand to that you assign the doman to them or just not use it.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

But you might try gaybay.cx and not list a US address.</description>

		<description>My understanding is that Utah is the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.watchman.org/lds/scamlds.htm&quot;&gt;white crime capital of the United States&lt;/a&gt;, due to the various scams and frauds perpetrated on Mormons by Mormons. Maybe one should look elsewhere.</description>

		<description>Dragoon&apos;s right - Jon Krakauer talked about that phenomenon - especially involving people playing on each other&apos;s Mormon faith - in his &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1400032806/qid=1107840461/sr=2-1/ref=pd_ka_b_2_1/104-1571098-2407907&quot;&gt;recent book&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;You&apos;re a mean one, Mister Hatch!&lt;/i&gt;

I am so writing that song.

Utah&apos;s main trouble as far as swindin&apos; goes seems to be MLM or out-and-out pyramid schemes.  I think it&apos;s a product of a certain &quot;success ethic&quot;, naivette/trust, and the smaller-world effect that comes about given the semi-closed nature of Mormon social networks. I&apos;ve been approached too many times -- but thankfully, never involved.</description>

		<description>Seems like this scamming is robbing Peter to pay Paul, given that Mormons give &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.positiveatheism.org/writ/mormons.htm&quot;&gt;10% of their income to the church&lt;/a&gt;, off the bat. As scams go, this site is for amusement purposes only.</description>

		<description>I was about 5 minutes into this site before I realized that it didn&apos;t say moronbid.com.  I figured that LDS was learning disabled syndrome or something.  &quot;Moronbid is a value-driven auction/community site for those living the LDS lifestyle..&quot;</description>

		<description>orange swan, what do you mean, somewhere out there? Mormon underwear has magical powers. You can cast a level 8 Polygamy or level 6 Permanent Grimace with used Mormon underwear.

dahifi, funny, moron is bastardization of mormon. I use them interchangably.</description>
