The rank and file LDS are also much nicer and less crazy than Scientologists who seem to be pure evil and robotic.
Considering the stupidity of LDS and Scientology "doctrine," I would put them about equal. "Evil" is subjective. I would not call Scientologists or Mormons evil. I'd say all humanity is utterly depraved and evil from a divine sense, at least.
The LDS, at least its leadership, destroy families, practice shunning, and engage in mind control. This is no different than the Scientologists, with the exception that the Scientologists have higher production values.

No LDS has more than their fair share of evil and robotic, they just try not to let outsiders see it - the goal of APPEARING nice (and they do use the term appear) is to get you interested in joining - nothing else.
Mormonism is a lot like the first stepford wives movie.
