30. Mormons, Jews, Christians, Muslims - frankly I just don't see the difference.
Mormons are silly, but ALL religions have an equal share of unbelievable stories that 'must' be accepted on blind faith. When these stories are viewed objectively instead of from the point of view of a "believer", one is just as ridiculous as the next. Talking snakes, burning bushes, demons cast into herds of animals, 6000 year old earth, etc. etc, etc........ Even the Christian bible mentions unicorns AND dragons.

religion causes divisiveness. period.

I would not ever ally myself with ANY religious group to "attack" an even more preposterous group. Extend that line of thinking to the "world" religions and you can see how we have arrived at our current state of "my gawd is bigger and badder than your gawd".

Mormons LOVE their persecuted history but are first in line to step up and persecute others.

For once in my life it would be nice to see religion take a back seat to the actual RUNNING of our government for change.
