“Which is why Mormons have been, for the most part, left alone. They are not a violent group and do not attack others.”

Who was first on the scene helping people after Katrina? No, it wasn’t FEMA, it wasn’t Baptists, Catholics. It was Mormons.

They also have disproportionate representation in intelligence agencies,Secret Service, FBI....because they generally, as families, and culturally do the things that make security clearances difficult to obtain.

I don’t agree with their theology, but I’d rather have them as neighbors than anyone from my or any other religion during a disaster.

I think what makes most people so dang mad at Mormons is that they behave more like Christians than most self-proclaimed Christians do!

They do set a good Christian example for other religions to follow, and they do it consistently.

I meant “Don’t do the things that make security clearances difficult to obtain”

(I think if you were auditioning for godhood of your own planet -- where you were planning on being worshiped & adored & glorified & obeyed as god of your own planet -- you'd be on your best behavior, too)

I totally agree. Mormons, today, represent the better conduct we look for in Americans.

And who is always bragging about it?

Again; the MORMONs.

I believe that, on the whole, Mormons exemplify the qualities that the majority of Christians had been living out for centuries before.

I think that most christians are happy to accept them as brothers and sisters ... until we find out that they have that other book that they really place above the Bible.

Then we start to find out all that other stuff (Joseph Smith, Hebrews in America, golden plates, etc.) ... and it all goes downhill from there.

Talking about bragging ...

“Oh we are SOOOOOOOO wonderful, and what did your church do???”

It was the South American natives who are barred from enterting the mormon so called “temples” that work and pay for those same buildings with their teeth...

How many teeth did the mormons in the US give RFEngineer, monocle, mysterio ???

How many teeth did your church give ???

Do you two have all your teeth ???

Why ???

To outdo the South Americans, you have to give your teeth plus, well something...

Sometimes, but more often only to appear that way. Want an eye opener?! Read the book the “darker side of virtue” by Anson Shupe.

There is a VERY dark side lurking under the squeaky clean mormon image. I (and many others on here) have seen it first hand. Don’t be fooled by their “whited sepulchers”
