Bo Burnham was raised in an environment deeply rooted in Christianity. He grew up in an atmosphere where religion played a significant role in his life. Bo attended a Catholic school where he was exposed to religious teachings and practices from an early age. His experiences with religion and the way it shaped his worldview have been reflected in some of his comedy and performances, where he often touches on themes related to faith, existentialism, and societal norms. Burnham's upbringing seems to have influenced his introspective and critical approach to various topics, including religion, which he sometimes explores in his creative work.

The Mormon Church, officially known as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), is a Christian religious denomination originating in the 19th century in the United States. Founded by Joseph Smith in 1830, Mormons believe in the Book of Mormon as another testament of Jesus Christ alongside the Bible. They follow unique teachings, including the belief in modern prophets, continuing revelation, and the potential for all to become gods in the afterlife.
The LDS Church is known for its emphasis on family values, missionary work, and strict moral standards, including abstaining from alcohol, tobacco, and premarital sex. Temples hold a central role in their faith, where sacred ceremonies and ordinances are performed.
In 2002, the church gained attention for its involvement in genealogical research and extensive humanitarian aid programs. However, controversies have arisen regarding historical practices like polygamy (discontinued by the main church in the late 19th century) and the treatment of LGBTQ+ individuals due to their stance on same-sex marriage and gender roles. Despite criticisms and controversies, the Mormon Church continues to grow globally, maintaining a significant presence in various countries.
