I'll let followers of those traditions tell you about Taoist and Agnostic beliefs, but maybe I can tell you a little about "Mormons" because I've been one since my Sophomore year in college.
"Mormon" is a slang term meaning a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There are about 13 million members in 168 countries. A little less than half of the members live in the United States, with the majority of U. S. members concentrated in the Rocky Mountain west.
Without going into a lot of doctrine, there are a couple of things that would be different from most other Christian denominations.
First, we have a lay ministry, so the leadership of a congregation is composed of people who have a regular job, and serve the church as volunteers. Our local leader is a fisherman during the week, for example. If you were a member, the local leader might ask you to speak with a couple of weeks notice, so each Sunday's service would feature talks from two or more members. Fathers are supposed to be the loving leaders of their families. Like most faithful male adults, I hold the priesthood -- or the power to act for God. Thus, I baptized my children when they were old enough, and ordained the male members to that priesthood at the right time.
Second, we are not part of either the Catholic or Protestant tradition, but are a restoration of the gospel as taught in beauty and simplicity by Jesus Christ Himself. That makes our doctrine and practices differet from other Christian faiths.
If you'd sincerely like to know more, I'd recomment www.mormon.org

Mormon. Waiting to be gods. Taoist. Seeing the universe in themselves. Agnostic. God is dead or went on a permanent vacation.

A mormon is another Christian. Taoists are those that agree with the teachings of Lao Tzu and try to understand Tao, they can be theists or atheists. Agnostics are those who aren't convinced whether or not there is a God.

Mormon is a strange christian that believes Jesus came to the native americans, and that Jesus and satan are brothers and they can marry as many wives as they want.
Taoist(myself) believes God is the force of nature and that we are made of earth wind fire and water.
Agnostic believes God can neither be proven nor disproven.
