I once went to the temple square in Salt Lake City, Utah, driving home from California. And the people in Salt Lake City are the nicest I’ve ever encountered anywhere, ever. They put all my Mormon jokes to bed, really, in the most platonic, nonsexual way possible. Which is why a new Mormon pin-up calendar is confusing me.
The calendar is called Hot Mormon Muffins, the follow-up to the controversial Men On A Mission calendar. The principle? Have sexy, supposed Mormon women pose with trays of muffins, and then list recipes for the muffins. So you’re caught somewhere between a boner and a baker. Which is way weirder than a rock and a hard place. There’s only one problem. The creator, Chad Hardy, was excommunicated from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for his OTHER endeavor, a calendar of Mormon men, called “Men on a Mission”. Ostensibly, for converting their religion into a fetish. Albeit a weird, sexy, one.
So in the last few months, we’ve had a completely unconvincingly sexual calendar featuring conservative women, and one with hot Mormon muffins. I’m going to go with Mormon muffins.
Does anybody actually think these muffin recipes taste delicious? Cause I really want to buy this calendar, but really don’t want to explain to people why I did.

Absolutly absured! I saw both calenders and they are no tastless. The men were more revieling than the women. Makes you wonder?

Actually, the video is tastless and does not promote the family values of the church. Whether you agree with the church or not, ask yourself, does this reflect the church?

Chad Hardy was excommunicated for pushing homosexuality and using the church as a type of prop for pushing images that cater to homosexuals with his "men on a mission" calendar. This current project of his is just proof that he doesn't smoke pole ALL of the time.

Most of the women have nothing to do with the muffins they are advertising, so what muffins are they lookers hungry for? Well I'd have to say this is Christianity in a nutshell. Perversion. This is an excellent example of Christianity and it's hidden perversion of true faith in the God of Abraham. I guess it was about time someone rose up to expose it for what it really is. Just another whore. In fact ,is not she (Christianity) the very whore upon the back of the beast?

I am a mormon and this calendar isn't really what the church would approve. This kind of thing makes the church get headlines for the wrong reasons. If these ladies want to do a calendar then don't put the church name on it to disgrace it. The calendar loses the plot and integrity of a great religion. The ladies do look good though......

Why is the LDS church so upset? I believe their founders Joseph Smith/Brigham Young had a real taste for muffins. Seems a little hypocritical to me.... seriously, pull the log out of your own eye...
