DEC. 20, 2016 Utahs population crossed the 3.0 million mark as it became the nations fastest-growing state over the last year. Its population increased 2.0 percent to 3.1 million from July 1, 2015, to July 1, 2016, according to U.S. Census Bureau national and state population estimates released today.
States in the South and West continued to lead in population growth, said Ben Bolender, Chief of the Population Estimates Branch. In 2016, 37.9 percent of the nations population lived in the South and 23.7 percent lived in the West.
Following Utah, Nevada (2.0 percent), Idaho (1.8 percent), Florida (1.8 percent) and Washington (1.8 percent) saw the largest percentage increases in population.

Oh no, not an elsiethon.Hey!
If folks provoke me to post facts from MormonISM; is it MY fault they do not like the results?
Would it not be much simpler to merely post the TRUTH of MORMONism instead of calling well-intentioned people names?

Both of those allow eating meat. I have to assume that you fail to understand what "ordained of GOD" means; as well as sparingly and abundance.

Never been a Mormon for a day in my life. I simply do not buy your accusation that both the Mormon church and the Catholic church are actively as institutions, sponsoring illegal immigration as policy.Oh, I'm sure churches routinely pick illegal immigrants as their local church presidents... /s

Seems as though our Mormon folks here have gone running silent; running deep...
1) Avoidance. They never actually discuss issues head-on or provide constructive input, generally avoiding citation of references or credentials. Rather, they merely imply this, that, and the other. Virtually everything about their presentation implies their authority and expert knowledge in the matter without any further justification for credibility.
2) Selectivity. They tend to pick and choose opponents carefully, either applying the hit-and-run approach against mere commentators supportive of opponents, or focusing heavier attacks on key opponents who are known to directly address issues. Should a commentator become argumentative with any success, the focus will shift to include the commentator as well.
3) Coincidental. They tend to surface suddenly and somewhat coincidentally with a new controversial topic with no clear prior record of participation in general discussions in the particular public arena involved. They likewise tend to vanish once the topic is no longer of general concern. They were likely directed or elected to be there for a reason, and vanish with the reason.
