Yep. This is how it starts. We’re on the path to “favored minority.”
Public law schools and universities in Ohio, Missouri and Illinois will start giving Mormons extra points toward admission in order to remedy past discrimination, while vehemently denying any sort of quota system.
Mormon characters will start popping up on sitcoms. At first they will be fairly sterotypical, used for comic relief. Then they will be used to protray the unfair prejudices in our society against those who are different. As Mormons become more accepted, eventually they will become the “cool” characters. Finally, one of the networks will produce a sitcom where one of the main characters is Mormon.
Then Mormon culture really begins to be a major influence. Mormon Eye for the Atheist Guy. Who Wants to Be a Missionary? Mel Gibson makes a Joseph Smith movie. The Osmonds produce the Super Bowl halftime show. The M in MTV stands for “Mormon.”
BYU’s football team will be more popular than Notre Dame. Monday Night Football will be moved to Tuesdays so as to not interfere with Family Home Evening.
It’s all pretty much inevitable, now.
