I know it's a sex cult, & their leader was killed, but when will they understand that you can't get ppl. in bed by trying to hide behind a mask of the Lord?

You are right about not getting people in bed trying to hide behind the mask of the Lord, but I don't know what that has to do with Mormons at all. Check out www.mormon.org for the real point.

Excuse me??
SEX cult??
whoa. You don't know thing ONE about Mormons, do you?
For instance, anyone having sexual relations with anyone who is not their legal spouse, of the opposite sex, is excommunicated from the church. Or disfellowshipped. Hardly the marks of a SEX cult!

Why do you state I Know, when you obviously don't?
I'm most assuredly not Mormon but children that state lies to other children and mislead them are as guilty as the sinner they condemn.
I think you need to wait on exhorting and condemnation until you are old enough to understand the concept.
I assume you are a child and uneducated in bible lore otherwise you are just a fool.

Let me dispell some of your ignorance.
Firstly we are not a cult. We are a legitimate Christian sect.
Secondly, we are not obsessed with sex. Our moral code (the Law of Chastity) is comparable to the strict morals of most other Christian sects (no extramarital sex). We do not have weird sexual rituals in our homes or our temples.
Thirdly, Joseph Smith Jr was murdered. He was the first Prophet of Mormonism. Each surviving Mormon sect has had its own leaders since that time. No other LdS Prophet was murdered.
Finally, the whole point of Mormonism is to live with our Father and enjoy his greatest gifts. Central to this plan is Jesus' Atonement, for it is only through this that we can overcome the obsticules of Death and Sin which would separate us from God. Anything beyond that is secondary.

The point is:
6 ¶ Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
(New Testament | Matthew 7:6)

Sex cult? My husband will be happy to hear this!
We actually teach chastity and believe that sex must only be between consenting, MARRIED people...and that means ONE MAN, ONE WIFE.
Don't know where you're doing your research, but you might try going to the source. Otherwise you look like an idiot.
This website is the point of Mormons.

"....I know that it is a sex cult..." Right there, it is apparent that you are grossly misinformed.
The point of Mormons, however to answer your question, is to bring people unto Christ.
