If you think Mormonism is retarded, why you think the Bible is any different?

It's also seriously tacky.  Christianity and Judaism still inspires a great deal of Art-see Taverner, for instance-but Mormonism does nothing but inspire this-



I rather like it. Then again, I liked Saddam's art.

While all religions are responses to specific historical, cultural or geographic forces, I don't think all religions are equal, in pretty much the same way that not all cultures are of equal value.  So I "judge" a religion based on its antiquity, ethical and metaphysical teachings, its society and culture, and the behaviors of its mainstream followers.

For example, Modern Canadian Christianity does better than the Afghan Taliban.

My only complaint against Mormonism is that they are such die-hard proselytizers. They, like many Christians, believe that it is their responsibility to make others like them.

But that's not really a complaint specific to Mormonism. That's a complaint against any religion who does that.
Yeah, I hate that kind of thing, it is thoroughly immoral. Behave whatever bollocks you want but don't go infecting the minds of the vulnerable with it.

Judaism: 3,000+ years old
Christianity: 2,000+ years old
Islam, PBUH: 1,200+ years old
Mormonism:  Invented a few weeks ago on the back of a cocktail napkin with the last two digits smeared by the condensation from a bottle of Rolling Rock nursed far too long while listening to Warrant's "Don't Know What You've Got" at 1:35am as you stare at yourself in the bar mirror wondering if the well-worn single mom barfly sitting next to you is really worth knowing where you live on a work night
What's the connection between this and the OP?
