I am one - I hope I can be an example of how our Savior and Heavenly Father want us to be. In my experience, LDS are just regular people, with higher standards than most, who are just trying to live what they are being taught, which is the true and everlasting gospel. We are ridiculed for our beliefs, hated for our belief in a moder-day prophet, made fun of for our sacred temple ordinances and clothing, put down for "not being Christian" and subject all manner of false accusations and misconceptions. Yet, we still try to live the gospel, love our neighbors and "do good to all men"...

I don't have a problem with them, nor do I have a problem with any religon. I've never met a mormon, but from i've seen and heard they seem like very nice people.

They are usually very honest, clean people. Not very understanding and comprehensive. Kind of strict. Hard workers.
Good to work with, bad if you have to be their children.
Wow, I did not know the Satanism and racism with in the temple, good question, I have learn a lot!

We were invited over to a Mormon's house once, and what a long evening. We got both a solicitation to join their church, and then a presentation on some multi-level marketing thing they were involved in. Both presentations sounded exactly the same, and the worst part was there was no booze anywhere.
Very boring.

You cant clump 13 million people together, they are all seperate people. The ones I know are nice people, hardworking and honest, with a love for our Savior Jesus Christ. They aren't really that different from other Christians.

The mormons that I have interacted with have been very nice people who, at odds with other religions, are not judgmental! They are also very giving.

Generally they seem to be nice people, that is seem to be...alot of Mormons are depressed, I am OCD, I am not sure if it is hereditary or if it was caused by such a rigid religion. My dad is OCD, my brother is schizo and my mom has depression. L.D.S. or Mormon or the church of Jesus Christ if Latter day saints all one and the same. They believe that Satan and Jesus are brothers and God did not like Satan’s plan, but like Jesus plan. Jesus to the Mormons died so they could pray to him for forgiveness, oh and died on the cross, but that’s about it, that won't get them into heaven because their theology has paganism and freemasonry in it besides their claim of Christianity. They claim to be the church from Jewish days and they had many wives in the O.T. days so hence they believe in polygamy. But god did not create Adam and eve and denice and Stacey ect. Anyways. They are prejudice because they believe in preexistence and they think that a lot of people went with satins plan (black people) and some kind of went with Jesus and Satan (lighter skin people) and those that went with Jesus (whites). They believe that Mary was married to God, so that’s what happened when the holy ghost came over here...they did it. This is a higher form of their theology, one that is only taught in the temple, so their are two theologies going on, the one that nontemple Mormon’s know about and the one that temple Mormons know about. ect. They have there own scriptures to. You can find more info on www.saintsalive.com. P.S. I was a mormon for 38 years, I am not now, but they still send the missionaries over to my house, I refuse to answer the door.
