Please answer the question before you consult wikipedia or something.

I am just curious what you all think.

Out of all the things stupid people have fallen for, the Mormons rank up there pretty far.

Entertaining noobs.  Education and entertaining are different things.  SP is one of the best shows ever.

My wife comes from a Mormon family, Southpark confirmed it. Perhaps I should have qualified myself as saying that I did not learn about Mormons form South Park, rather South Park confirms my impression of the Mormon faith, of which I had an abundant amount of contact of it members.

"The book of Mormon"

I guess beleiving in Christ is enough to make you Christian. I'm very nondenominational to begin with. I think is does more to hurt than help the faith .. sort of like the Crusades

Yes, considering that the official name of the church is "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints". Churches that worship Christ = Christian, no matter what you think of their methods.

I had mentioned in another forum that I was a Mormon and a Christian, and few people claimed that was some kind of contridiction.  I was just curious what other people thought.

I think that Mormon doctrine is one of the most misunderstood belief systems on earth.  For what it is worth, the majority of the people who claim to be of the Mormon faith don't even understand it, or its history.

I am sure all the self-proclaimed geniuses in this forum think they know what Mormonism is, but it is not as crazy or complicated as most people seem to think.

And, btw, seeing a documentary or reading wikipedia does not make you an expert.

Mormons believe that the only way a person can be saved is through Jesus Christ.  I am not sure exactly how you define Christians, but I voted "yes."

"Twenty-two miles southeast of Salt Lake City, buried deep in the ragged rock of Utah's Wasatch Range, lies a catacomb of names. Behind 700 feet of granite and six monstrous Mosler doors, the Mormon Church has squirreled away the world's largest collection of genealogical material: more than 2 million microfilm reels of parish records, marriage indexes, necrologies, census reports, pilgrim registers, and piles of other documents - some dating back to the Middle Ages. The Granite Mountain Record Vault holds around 2 billion names, a sizable portion of the total number of people who have ambled through recorded history."
lol... one of the wealthiest churches on earth owning thousands of huge buildings including a few sky-scrapers, and we hide our goods in "catacombs" in the middle of the desert.

We have horns too.

Hitler was posthumously baptized as a Mormon.

Weamo8 - What is the collective view of Mormons regarding the sanctity of the Book of Mormon?  Do most/all Mormons believe Joseph Smith's translation is legitimately divine?

They are Christians and good people as a whole.  Difference between their crazy ass beliefs and that of any other branch of Christians is that they have newer more modern crazy ass beliefs.  The Mormons and Sciencologist need to duke it out for stupid religion of the month in my book, but even stupid people can do good things and be nice..... take CameronPoe for example;0

I had to null vote, as I believe my view has been tainted.
