Any latter-day saint in here? (by Otluv)
(40 / M-F / Nigeria)
(47 / F-M / Florida)Otluv, what is a mormon. I have heard about it but don't know anything about it personally. What is a latter-day saint?
Mormon - A member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a religion founded in the US in 1830 by Joseph Smith, Jr.
Ahhh thanks a lot April. Interesting. Are they like Jehovas Witnesses? The most Ive heard is that they can take more than one wife but I dont know. I know nothing about the religious observances. I guess I'm curious because it's not talked about very much.
Some people consider it a cult. Idk. I found this figured it would explain it better than me.
A Mormon is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Although members say they prefer that the entire name be used to refer to them, or the shortened “Latter Day Saint,” the nickname is also acceptable. For many non-members, Mormons are a mysterious group of people, and misconceptions regarding their beliefs abound. It is a relatively new church, although members believe that the church is, in actuality, the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. In the year 1820, a young Joseph Smith began the restoration of the gospel, which today has over 12 million members worldwide.
When I was 13 there was this guy who lived down the road who was morman. Idk if its actually the religion but he was legally married to 3 women. The most homely looking women. Probably due to how he treated them. That had to do with him not his beliefs... I think?

omg, really enjoyed reading that girl. This is the most I've known about them. Yes, they keep very private about it apparently. Interesting indeed. And, it is surprising to see theyve had so many members too. This restoration is not very clear. I cant really knock the bigamy. It's not a Christian thing but I did want to be a second wife to a muslim man (dont ask lol) at one time so I guess if it's legal and women are accepting of it.... Great information here though! :)))
btw, the mormon thing I'm not at all interested in converting to personally.
