[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm agnostic, and I think all religions are cults, but in terms of personal integrity and behavior the Mormons I have known have been some of the nicest, most honest, hardest-working people I've come across.  [b]I've worked in organizations where, at the end of the day, people of one religion definitely displayed favoritism towards others of the same religion (I guess because of a shared belief they are "God's chosen"), and that's not been the case with Mormons.[/b]

So if they want to call themselves Christians, that's fine by me.  [/quote]
Lol. You need to meet more Mormons. [/quote]
+10000 Just move to Utah as a non-Mormon. [/quote]

Or Arizona or anyplace where they’re a large community. [/quote]
I knew an exchange student who was hosted by a Mormon family in Utah, she had a nice experience and found everyone to be friendly and welcoming. It wasn't an issue at all that she was not a Mormon [/quote]

An exchange student is not a peer. She is there for a limited proscribed time as an outsider.

A neighbor who has settled into a neighborhood is a peer. The expectation is that they are staying, are asking to be treated on the same footing as everyone else, and yet have not accepted the tenets of the LDS Church. They are living in the community as a community member, but they reject (or don't accept, or don't hew to) some of the common community standards cherished by other members.

Totally different situations. Totally different reactions overall.[/quote]
