One of the few things they actually do right!

Because theocratic politics is inherently great.

I just think most of their teachings are laughably stupid, as opposed to some of their teachings.

Praise the God-Emperor!

Also, if a "hard-core" Christian hates another sect of Christianity, chances are they're not a really good Christian.

Well, at least you two don't discriminate.

I don't hate Mormons, I have Mormon friends and they are actually quite friendly and not religious wackos like they're stereotyped to be.
I dislike some of their beliefs, but I don't hate any group of people, that's just prejudiced.

I don't mind the no drinking part, but I do find it a tad hypocritical that they don't mind polygamy, and actually encourage it at one point. Yet they want to ban homosexual marriage.

I hate them because they don't drink. Maybe I should love them instead...

Of course you should. More booze for you.

Why is Mormonism so sexist?

Exactly.

In addition: What's with the sacred undergarments and a prophet with gold tablets in a hat?

One of the mormons I met was the nicest person I've ever met.

Makes you wonder how Panzer happened to be one of them...

i don't like them because their entire religion is deeply silly, on a level that makes the silliness of normal religion seem plausible, and i find the promotion of that sort of demonstrably false irrationalism to be no good for a democratic society.

Ah, so mainstream Protestantism and Catholicism actually NEED Mormons to throw THEIR religion into relief. Nifty.

Dakini wrote:Oh, I should point out that I don't really hate Mormons as a whole. I hate their church and their religion is horrible.

However, they do send cute boys around to chat and if I wasn't in a relationship I would perhaps try to corrupt said cute boys. I explained to one Mormon the important role of Valkyries in Norse mythology last year. He failed to talk to me about his religion at all. Heh.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

No, more like Joseph Stalin's famous quote:
"Death is the solution to all problems. No man, no problem."

No, he's just one who hasn't been exposed, and doesn't even understand his beliefs fully.

Which is why Joseph Stalin pretty much killed anyone he didn't like.
