Mormons go to Salt Lake City. Dead people go to heaven (or hell, or Cleveland.) They used to go to purgatory first, but that was canceled by Vatican II.

It depends on who you ask. They certainly think they are going to heaven.
They do not believe in the same God as the Christians. So either the Christians are going to heaven or the Mormans - not both. I am a Christian and believe I have seen ample evidence for my faith. The Mormans believe many things that are incompatible with Christianity.
Here is a list of those beliefs from Ex Mormons for Jesus:
( http://www.exmormonsforjesus.org )
1. The plurality of Gods
2. The baptism for the dead done in holy temples
3. Celestial marriage which no unworthy member or outsider can attend
4. Polygamy needed to become a God
5. Blacks were cursed with a black skin
6. You can become a God if you are worthy; celestial marriage required
7. We were all pre-existent spirits
8. God has a body of flesh and bones
9. We have a Heavenly Mother
10. There are three levels of heaven. To go to the highest kingdom, you must be a Mormon. Honorable persons go to the Terrestrial kingdom. The dishonest, liars, sorcerers, adulterers and whoremongers go to the Telestial kingdom .
11. God and his wife achieved a celestial marriage
12. Heavenly Father died just like Jesus
13. God was once just like us
14. God has a father and His Father has a Father, etc.
15. Jesus and Lucifer are spirit brothers
16. Jesus and Lucifer each had a plan to people the earth. Jesus' plan was chosen and caused Lucifer to rebel and he and the angels that followed him were cast out of heaven.
17. God lives near a star called Kolob
18. Temple endowments are so sacred that you must be worthy to enter
19. The gates of hell will prevail against the church and I will not be able to keep it together
20. In the future, you will need a living prophet's (Joseph Smith) consent to enter the celestial kingdom
21. Not everything you'll need to know concerning salvation will be recorded in the Bible but there will be additional light.

I feel sorry for people who live their lives based on whether or not they will go to "heaven". What a bunch of idiots.
How about the idea that you just live the best life you can? You are here, and your goal should be the very best person you can be.

You must not watch South Park. If you did you would know that Mormons are the only ones who get into heaven (Everyone else lives in Condos in Hell).

If Mormons didn't believe they go to heaven, they wouldn't be Mormons.
Every religion is considered by its followers as the right way to go to heaven, otherwise, no one would believe in any religion,
Nobody is going to believe in something that he or she feels it's not right.

See ya there. Unless, of course, the Second Coming of Jesus Christ comes first, which I bet it will. Have a happy day!
