Also known as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Mormons dont like to be called "Mormons." They prefer the "Latter Day Saints" label. Some Christian denominations consider it a cult but Mormons strongly disagree. Mormonism was founded by Joseph Smith in upstate New York in the 1800s. Latter Day Saints members follow the Book of Mormon and call it "Another Testamant of Jesus Christ," which I find hogwash, because the Bible specifically teaches that it is the ONLY Word of God. The early Mormons migrated to Illinois then to Salt Lake City, Utah where its headquarters is today. Mormonism is among the world's fastest-growing religions.
Key beliefs:
1. Joseph Smith, its founder, was a "prophet" and was led by the angel Moroni to a hill in upstate New York to discover a set of golden plates that contained prophecies that are not found in the Bible. At this site he allegedy saw God and Jesus. What crap. The Bible teaches that no human being can lay their eyes upon God and survive.
2. They believe that the Garden of Eden was located at the present day site of Kansas City, Missouri and that Zion will be located there in the future. What crap. The Bible specifically says the Garden was in the Fertile Crescent between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.
3. Jesus and Lucifer (Satan) are brothers and Godchildren to God the Father and his "wife." This implies a sexual union between God the Father and some Godess. What hogwash.
4. God is made of flesh and bone becuase the Bible says mankind is made in the image of God.
5. Prophets from around the time of the Tower of Babel built a boat and sailed to what is now the North American continent.These people are the ancestors to ancient North American tribes.
6. celestial marriage in that marriage continues in the afterlife.
7. baptism of the dead in that one can be baptised on behalf of a deceased loved one
8. family-oriented and lots of kids
9. DOES NOT BELIEVE IN MONOGOMY. The practice was denounced by the Church in the 1800s.
10.Jesus appeared to Indians in ancient America sometime after his resurrection in the first century.
11.The leaders of each church is considered a "prophet" and is specifically ordained by God himself to lead a congregation.
I find Mormonism to be crap but its followers are nice, loving people.

Truly the nicest people with pure intentions that are seriously misunderstood. When Christ walked the earth he was hated for what he taught because it meant that those who were in power, selfish or otherwise had misinterpreted what the prophets throughout time had taught, were wrong and needed to repent. For this same reason there are many antagonistic portrayals of the Mormon (LDS-Ladder Day Saint) people. Rarely if ever will one hear a member of the LDS church say anything derrogatory about another or their religion. However, incessantly there are those who are consumed with the urge to insult or otherwise demean in every possible way the Mormons. This is a very accurate indication that the same spirit that possessed the people that hated Christ 2000 years ago is alive and well today. That spirit is mean and devilish and is the root of all that is evil in the world today.
Why are people so negative to Mormons? For the same reason that Christ and his followers were hated and abused.

In 1832, Joseph Smith found golden plates on Hill Cumorah; a small, steep hill located in Palmyra, NY. So, Mormanism began. Every summer, Palmyra is infested with religion-spreading Mormons, merely hoping to pass their goodness unto the world through missionary work and abstinence. Here, they enjoy the festivities of the Hill Cumorah Pagent, the very site at which the religion was founded.
(To non-mormon)"Hi. I'm from Palmyra." *Blank Stare*---"Oh...cool..?" "It's like a Jerusalem to the Mormons." "Oh, I have a Mormon friend. She can't..." "I know."
(To Mormon) "Hi. I'm from Palymra." "OH MY GOD, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" "No. You're Mormon aren't you?"
