Mormons aren't a cult. They're basically just racist Christians. The more modern ones are moving away from the racist parts of their book.

Agree to disagree

At least it isn't bill gates or china.

They stopped being racist when they realized they wanted a a college sports team that had some potential of winning.

I’m also pretty sure the Samoan population of Utah is 10,000x what it would be if it weren’t for the Mormons

Yeah, I consider them the modern ones. The anti-black stuff is in their book, but many of them have gone away from that in the modern times. I think many sects even allow blacks into the clergy now.

Mormons, as a group, are probably the nicest people I've ever met. And they are not the only group who have some ugly things in their literature.

Regardless of my view on any group in general, I will always judge an individual based on their own merits and flaws. I know I can sound judgemental about certain religious groups, but that's just generalization as a group. I never assume every individual subscribes to the same culture or doctrine.

They do, and Mormons probably have less ugly things in the history than others that have been around a lot longer. I see it as different circus, same clowns. There is a distinct difference between Mormons in Utah, and those outside. I just thank God that grandma saw through the bs and dad was from Texas.

Yeah they are fine people. Just think the Mormon church is a business and should be treated as such

The new Netflix western saga mini series American Primeval cannot be making the Mormons happy.
It makes Horizon and 1883 look like nothing.
I did a little deep dive fact checking on it and a lot of the stuff they show is true.

All religion now is a business,and should be treated as such.

Choosing which one is true, hollywood or a religion.

I am going to go with neither, and it does not matter.

Do we ever see movies describing how horrific the history of hollywood is or the impacts it has had on people? Oh, no, no, do not question the religion.
