Interesting Mormon Stuff
The following information was found at http://www.holyfetch.com
Is Amy Adams a Mormon?
True / at least at one time
To most she is the Disney princess on Enchanted who comes to life and ends up falling in love with Dr. McDreamy, but to others she will always be the girl selling purses on "The Office". And yes, it is true; this princess/purse peddler grew up in a Mormon household in Castle Rock, Colorado. The middle child of seven siblings, she was raised Mormon until she was 11. That is when her parents divorced and it seems when Amy went inactive. She has not been active since. Come on missionaries, get on it. If Patrick Dempsey can convert her to living in New York, we should be able to reactivate her.
Is Katherine Heigl a Mormon?
True / she was born into an LDS family but no longer attends church
Katherine was born into a Mormon family. Katherine was born in Washington D.C. on November 24, 1978, the youngest of five children. As her family moved several times, they continued to be active in the Church. An exact date as to when she stopped being active is not known, but she is not active today. Yet, she does claim that her values come from her parents and the church she grew up in. Like a good Molly Mormon, Katherine didn't date until she was 16.
"Part of it was the rules of the religion I was in, and the other part was my parents enforcing those rules," she says. "I really trusted my parents and believed they wanted what was best for me. I didn't always agree with everything they said, but I'd always defer to them."
"I haven't been an actively practicing Mormon in years," she admits. "I still have a fondness for the Mormon religion and theology. A lot of my friends are Mormon."
Ricky Schroder is an active member?
True / and a pretty good one too
Rick Schroder married Andrea Bernard (a member) in 1992 but soon found herself going to church by herself. The blond star of "Silver Spoons" took the missionary discussions while they were dating and again after they were married, but never showed much desire to join. Then in 2000, after about 8 years of being married, Rick surprised everyone by saying he wanted to be baptized. He was staring in "NYPD Blue" at the time.
"I went on faith that it was true," Rick said at a young adult fireside. "The greatest decision I ever made - besides marrying Andrea - was to ask with faith if Jesus was the son of God, and if he was real ... and if it was all true, and if the Book of Mormon was true."
Andrea’s father baptized Ricky in April 2000. He then received the Priesthood and baptized his son.
"Since gaining a testimony of our church and getting baptized, I can't tell you how much my life has changed in my perspective, my relationships (with) my friends and my family, and how my talent has changed," Ricky said.
Rick Schroeder joined the Church in the Pacific Palisades Ward in the California Santa Monica Stake.
Steve Martin is LDS
False
This has got to be the most classic LDS legend. The oldie, but goodie, Steve Martin is a member. Sometimes it goes on to say that he has been seen wearing a CTR ring or reading the Book of Mormon. Usually, the legend includes that he has been baptized, but keeps it secret.
This story is untrue. Steve Martin is not a member (or is super, super secretive about it for you conspiracy theorists). Several years ago, a BYU Daily Universe journalism student tried to trace this story back to its origins and did find that a missionary did baptize a Steve Martin, but it was not THAT Steve Martin.
Aaron Eckhart is an active member?
False
Aaron Eckhart is probably best known for his role in "The Dark Knight". He was indeed LDS at one time and even served a mission in France and Switzerland. He graduated from BYU in 1994. Unfortunately, it is always darkest right before the dawn and he hasn't been too diligent in attending church lately.
In an interview he did with Entertainment Weekly he said, "I'm certainly not a deacon, I'm not a priest. I'm sure people think I'm a Mormon, but I don't know that I'm a Mormon anymore, you know? To be honest, to be perfectly clear, I'd be a hypocrite if I did say that I was, just because I haven't lived that lifestyle for so many years."
So, I guess in his mind, he is not a Mormon.
