Ever wonder why you find the Book of Mormon in every Marriott hotel? It's because J. Willard Marriott, founder of Marriott Corporation is Mormon.
There is so much out there to research about the Mormon religion. If it were me I would go with a particular topic and show both sides of the issue, as opinions vary on any religious topic.

You'll receive a lot of misinformation if you ask here. People may mean well, but they'll tell you what they've heard and so much of what they've heard is wrong. (For example, they DO attend church AND the temple. For different reasons.)
Visit www.lds.org and click on beliefs. You'll get a very accurate picture of the Mormon religion.
Be sure you visit the OFFICIAL site of the church which is www.lds.org
Any other site will be filled with anti-Mormon information. For some odd reason, many people have extreme and irrational opinions about Mormons.
Good luck. :)

Kolob is the place God is living, and we are living right here on earth as quickly as we die interior the Spirit international, that's al around us. Kolob is gently stated interior the scriptures, and is taken regularly as an emblem or a attractiveness for the actual living house of God. Regardless, Kolob's value isn't a great part of Mormon Doctrine, because of the fact we visit Temples that are literal homes of the Lord.

It's a rip-off of Freemasonry believe it or not. It's founder Joseph Smith, Jr. was an ex-mason and rewrote alot of masonic ritual into the morman religion.
