There are 'socially good' people of all religions, DE.

The Mormon church has a VERY bloody and ugly history, Even today, there are various factions that would make your blood curdle - not friendly, not good, and definitely very nasty families.

But that is by far NOT ALL Mormons.

Their theology is definitely NOT CHRISTIAN, despite their claim to being so. Read the 'Book of Mormon' sometime - some pretty whacked out stuff in there.

Re: “Witnesses always in pairs, an 'elder' and a trainee. The elder will get the trainee outta there QUICK when confronted with someone like me. They can't stand being Biblically challenged.”They aren't too happy about being approached on isolated land by someone who is openly carrying, either.Re: “Mormons ... last one I witnessed to was a solitary black man - told him I was a bit stunned that he was a Mormon - given their history with 'blacks'. ”The Mormon families I've known have been the best PEOPLE I've ever met. They'd give you the shirts off their backs, and the love I saw in their families was beyond belief. Mormons, IMO, are doing something very RIGHT.

Years ago, when I was fairly new to the whole "Marriage" concept, my wife and I toured the Mormon Tabernacle. We made a point of picking up a copy of their brochure giving advice on the raising of kids. I took many of its tips to heart. The Mormons' "Family Night," (Monday with the adherents I knew.) was a wonderful idea that all parents ought to embrace. On Family Night, nobody in the family goes out. Friends don't visit. Nobody watches TV. The families talk, play games, sing songs and do things together. It's a simple idea, but brilliant. If all families did it, they'd bond and strengthen. It would make the world a better place.

I respect the Mormons. I can't say that about any other religious group.
