I don't have an opinion on them. But then again, I don't have an opinion on most religions.

Utah doesn't have the best snow. not in the world, not in america, not even in the west. it's overrated and it's shit. like most of utah. i hate the place, i hate almost everything about it.
as for mormons? they're every bit as stupid as people say they are. but most people are also every bit as stupid as they accuse others of being, so ultimately... it's almost a level playing field. mormons are normally wealthier and more successful than average, so most people don't really have room to mock them. they have a stupid religion, but the people who mock it the most tend to also be religious, and fail to see the irony in that. because an american talking to god is somehow more ridiculous than a jew being god? please...
the best mormons DO make the best neighbors. but only the best mormons. and if you need someone to take advantage of, turn to the mormons. i'm not promoting that, i'm just acknowledging it. most would give you the clothes of their back. they're for the most part good people. the south park episode is actually an extremely accurate depiction, both of their doctrine and their mannerisms. as should be expected because matt stone and trey parker grew up with a lot of mormon friends.
my family is mormon back to the pioneers. i was the first person in 5 generations of my family to say, "gee, isn't this all a bit irrational and stupid?" then 3 of my cousins did the same, then one of my aunts recently left the church and joined a cult. a real cult; the dangerous kind.
