Mormon girls are nasty as all hell, and I say that glowingly, they are just really good at hiding it.

Mormon girls are the new Catholic school girls?

Calgary needs more cultural buildings. I'm getting tired of all these ridiculous "Point of View" style condo buildings and cookie cutter houses. This building looks nicer then the new style of "super churches" that seem to be popping up in the suburbs.

As long as they pay for it themselves, why would anyone have an issue with the temple?

Every mormon I've talked was incredibly nice - both while in "mission" mode and when just generally being. They generally are happy, motivated and incredibly cordial.

It's only their mass voting record that scares me - but then I lean toward social liberalism.

The US Government would not allow Utah to join the Union unless they abolished polygamy.

The hottest woman I dated was mormon.

She worked at the pool in Raymond at the time...

I tried, ...and failed at "converting" her to my beliefs in pre-marital transgressions...

Those members who do go on missions (the one's you see around Pincher Creek) are from somewhere else.
Yeah, I figured that too.

I have always been interested in different religions. In high school I was also really interested in football and when a couple guys from the states stopped by the house I let them in for a chat. They wanted to talk about god and I wanted to talk about football. Anyway, my mom came home and chased them out of the house like rats. Her understanding is that the religion is sexist and that the husband gets to decide if his wife gets into heaven or not. I dont know if this is true.

They do seem very powerful. I tried to find the south park morman religion beliefs clip on youtube. Nothing. The only thing I could find is the commentary from the episode. I thought it was interesting, one of them had a morman friend from calgary! NSFW due to language.

I honestly don't know a ton about the Mormon's, but I have a hard time believing it is more ridiculous than Scientology or even Catholicism for that matter.
