Magic Underwear Uncovered
Is it really all that strange?
If you think about other religions, perhaps the magic underwear is not all that strange after all. Jews wear yarmulkes, ministers or priests wear a special collars and TV evanglists wear shiny white suits. Nuns and monks have always worn special religious clothing and the pope gets dressed up like royalty.
Maybe in a couple of years we will have a president who wears bullet proof magic underwear. We can certainly cut back on Secret Service costs.

Wow! Cotton underwear... way to waste my time.
What's the point behind the magical underwear, though? Maybe I missed it...
Good point. I added some info. Specifically rather then for stopping bullets or enabling flying the magic underwear serves as a reminder of the symbolic reminder of the covenants made in temple ceremonies, and are viewed as either a symbolic or literal source of protection from the evils of the world. So in a sense they are like a super heros costume, ready to deflect evil.
MAGIC cotton underwear that protects one from evil just like wearing Batman's body Armour.
You can look on Ebay for some used sets from people left the cult or join your local Mormon church. Next time they come knocking on the door you might want to ask them.
