I think comparing Mormons to Wahhabis is ludicrous. Many Mormons serve faithfully in the armed forces where I cannot say the same for Wahhabis.
Seriously, there are a lot of things about LDS theology and church practices I find suspect and of which I just plain disagree. However, I have known quite a few Mormons and, to a person, I have found them to be hard working, patriotic, and family oriented. In this country, people are free to worship as they please. If they are good citizens, take care of themselves, and are a net plus for the community, who am I to judge them because they don’t share my religion.
Then I can only assume that your religion is not Christianity.
THAT 'religion' has a fairly clear mandate on what to do when faced with false teachers and false prophets.
You mean we can't find any Muslims as well who are...
...hard working...?
...patriotic to either U.S. if they are citizens -- or, if we're talking about the Middle East -- patriotic to their given country...?
...family oriented...especially to their sons, parents, etc.?
And here I thought for a moment you were going to offer up something distinctive for us...
You: Many Mormons serve faithfully in the armed forces where I cannot say the same for Wahhabis.
Once again, you've yet managed to add another "distinction" where there is none! (Congrats!)

It seems for a while that's all the Wahhabis did was to show their military prowess!
Care to try again?
Oh...and lest you think Mormons are all cut from the same "military" cloth...how about it if we wrest that illusion from you:
War and Peace in Our Time: Mormon Perspectives [Lds Pacifists alive and well]
Also, take a gander at J. Reuben Clark's pacifist views. Clark was Lds counselor to Mormon "prophets" Heber Grant & David McKay. (He was one of the top three Mormon hierarchists from 1933 to 1961)...
So...here the Mormons boasted as one of their top three leaders a pacifist during the Nazi years, during the Japanese years, during the North Korean years...
