Thats not the way to be, telling people to get lost. You should tell them to come on in so we can show them the way. 8-)
Here is a small breakdown of the number of members.
Worldwide, there are over 12 million Mormons, nearly the same as the number of Jews.
In the United States the LDS Church is the 4th largest individual denomination with over 5.5 million members, a population about equal to the number of Muslims.
Only 12% of all Mormons live in Utah. Most Mormons do not live in North America.
Aside from the United States, other regions with significant Mormon populations include Mexico and Asia (1 million members each), South America (3 million members), and Central America and Europe (about half a million each). The rapid growth the Church has been experiencing in Africa, where there are already a quarter of a million members, is particularly exciting.
After Catholics, the LDS Church is the largest religion in ten U.S. states.
(Accurate as of December 31st, 2004, December, 2002, 1999(?). See LDS Quick Facts, News Site, Wikipedia, and Adherents.com.)

Not I
My family was Mormon. The last of my family to leave the Mormon church was my uncle about 8 years ago. He was a youth pastor/leader. Well, his wife began homeschooling their children and began reading the Bible for religion class. She found many things in the Bible that contradicted the Mormon teachings. They eventually left. Mormon's are nice people and very family oriented but the religion itself scares me. Not on the surface. It's when you get the deeper teachings and all the temple rituals.

I am a member of the Church!!
Born in Melbourne, Australia, now living in Christchurch, New Zealand, just came back from mission in Sapporo Japan.
The church is growing really well, especially in Africa, as mentioned, in Japan saw lots of people join the church and many more return to the church, it is AMAZING!

Not many. I like it that way, though. I've seen enough trying to convert people for the past 4 years. I even wished one would stop me and talk to me. Maybe they would have realized that God is not a man, nor was He ever one.
