MORMONS !!!! well they are goody two shoes. They are GOD'S gift to Earth!!! They are far superior than scums of earth like us; the ordinary people. They are one and only true messengers of god and their church is the only true church. Maybe you think I am being offensive but It is has Lau Zo had said when you define what is beautiful simultaneously you define what is ugly. And yes sir if your not Mormon your the Ugly (or FUGLY), poor and lost soul; which by the way they will try to save by reaching out to you and tell you that all that you believed in was noting more than a mere lie (oh! I am sorry, I meant it's addition to what you have already learned in your believes ).
So if you saw a "LDS" (this way it's more respectful) missionary my friend get ready for a lot of lecture about church and heavenly father cause they are well trained religion sale men (who by the way will save your miserable and pathetic soul) and within few weeks you will be drowned for a second and walla your Mormon ( and then you too will be Superior and have eventually become a god and have your own toys to play with). OH DEAR did i tell you that you will be send to eternal darkness (HELL!!!!) if you don't become a MORMON!!! SO BECOME A MORMON AND LET THEM SAVE YOUR SOULLLLL.

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints- it's quite a mouthful- the nickname mormon was given because of the book of mormon. We are also known as LDS (latter-day saint). Check out mormon.org to learn more.

*EDIT- FREEFROM..you wouldn't offend for stating our beliefs- but you do offend when you make generalized incorrect statments. We are not anti-catholic- my dad was catholic before he was converted and all of his side of the family is catholic. I love everyone of them, and respect their beliefs. We even participated in christmas events with them while growing up that are not mormon traditions. And please don't assume that we are brainwashed and have no choice because we were "raised to think that way" the vast majority- i don't know specific numbers but i think it would be safe to say that over 50-60% of the millions of members are converts to the church- and were not "raised to think that way" and at some point in our lives to those who were raised in the church, made a choice to believe or not- i actually made the choice to become inactive for about 3 years- i was stubborn, and it was the worst 3 years of my life. It wasn't until by my own choice (and a non member friends suggestion- because he knew i was happier when i was going to church) that i went back, and my life has been blessed tremendously becasue of it. I have a strong testimony of the gospel and have searched and studied many alternatives, and by my own independant witness can say full heartdly that i know that Jesus is my Savior, and that book of mormon is true, and that the gospel is the most complete gospel that we have on this earth today. Sorry if that offends you. But i have gone down the other paths- and have learned what other religions believe, and all had left me with more questions than answers. Not so with the LDS church- it has the answers- to the most basic nagging questions- other churches seemed to hollow in comparison on this. All had some good in them- but I couldn't get over that they all seemed to missing crucial pieces, and that some beliefs contradicted the bible, when they claim that any religion that contradicts the bible is hypocracy-ironic, i know.

-the church was founded in 1830 by a guy named Joseph Smith who claimed that God made him both a prophet & apostle

-they beleive in celestial marriage, babtising the dead (which neither are based on sacred scripture or tradition)
-The catholic church does not accept the Book of Mormon as being inspired & THEIR book contradicts itself

- they believe in something called the great apostasy, which was corruption the the church after the death of the last apostle. (between 100-200AD) There is no proof of this anywhere in history. the new testament is very clear that Christ left a Church that would last until the end of time. (Mt 7:24-27, Mt 16:13-18 &18:15-18,everywhere)

-they are very anti-catholic
-the one's who follow all mormon doctrine's, are married & are great will actually become a God ( that leaves Jesus out)
- as Gods they will continue to be married & procreat & have spiritual children???WTF

in conclusion they have extremely different beliefs, for those of you who are mormon I hope I didn't offend you, by stating your beliefs, I'm sure for most of you it's not your fault,, you were probably just raised that way.

Visit mormon.com or lds.org and you'll see. Actually, there are no 'mormons', we're really from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Members of the Jesus Christ Church of Latter Day Saints, with headquaters in Salt Lake City. They have been called Mormans, because they follow the book of Morman.

Followers of a polytheistic religion that speculates that there are millions of gods and that each male person can become a god and with his wife populate his own planets with people to worship him. It is basically humanism carried to the ultimate extreme.
