I have reason to believe that my mormon neighbors have broken into my home on a number of occasions and snooped through my financial records and personal belongings. Nothing was stolen. Has this happened to other people out there??

You may have just 'bad neighbors'. Put up those little spy cameras in the house and film the culprits if you suspect it'll happen again.

If they're rich and successful, tell them a few grand ca$h will buy the video. Make a copy before you give it to them.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon Church) would never condone spying on a neighbor. If your neighbors happen to be Mormon and are spying on you, it has nothing to do with their religion. If they were Catholic would you ask if all Catholics spy on others? If they were hispanic, would that be the reason? If they were gay, would that be the cause? Or is it that people of all religions, creeds, and orientations run the entire gamut of the human spectrum from honest, hard working people to thieves?

Nothing that severe. My Grandfather wasn't a Mormon, but he lived in Brigham City and would drive out of the state to buy liquor. Somehow the Mormon church would still know exactly how much booze he bought and where, and they'd send the elders over to his house to chew him out. It's a funny story, but I personally have nothing bad to say about Mormons as a whole and have always found them to be good people.

Except for Harry Reid, who is a twit.

You sound paranoid to me. I've NEVER broken into anyone's home. That's not to say some LDS member somewhere hasn't. I'm sure one or 2 have at some point. There are good and bad people in ALL faiths. But remember, church is for the sinners, not the saints.

Are you talking about the same ones that were my neighbors years ago? Worst neighbors I ever had. They wrecked everyone's lives around them. Move! No matter what, move! They will always come out smelling like a rose because of the stereotype of the PERFECT PEOPLE.

So, you suspect that some people might be trespassers.... and you ask the question about all members of this religion?

Have we completely given up on the concept of holding individuals accountable for their actions? Have we gotten so massively brain-locked on religious hatred that we automatically assume that any time a person does something, their entire religion must be equally culpable.....?

As long as it doesn't happen to be the religion you belong to -- in which case it must be race or hair color or what political party the other person belongs to....?!

Was it truly impossible for you to imagine that these people might be individuals who did this, and not representatives of the entire religious movement?

i am in agreement with corogryph and the others who question your bias with religous groups. here is a question posed to chemestry students, along with an answer.



HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington
chemistry mid term.
The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it
with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have
the pleasure of enjoying it as well.
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law
(gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some
variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we
need to know the rate at which souls are moving into > Hell and the rate
at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a
soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different
religions that exist in the world today.

Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their
religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these
religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we
can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as
they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase
exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell
because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and
pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand
proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter
Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell wil l increase until all
Hell
breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
Hell,
then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year
that,
"It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take into
account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must
be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already
frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen
over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is
therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the
existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept
shouting "Oh my God."


THIS STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+.

Im sorry to find this a bit amusing. In my experience, nosey yes, peek out the window to see what your doing late at night, yes, look over the backyard fence , probably, but break into your house, no not a chance.

I doubt it! They may be Mormon, but it isn't the church breaking and entering, just like it would not be yours if you did the same thing!

They do have a penchant for turning people in for Alleged violations of their rules! That is so lame!

Many of the families in my neighborhood are mormon; they don't even peek out their curtains at me. Great neighbors.
