Sadly, Salt Lake City, despite being the home of the Mormon Church, has become just another RAT-run major city. Fortunately, most of the rest of Utah is still a Mormon majority place, and as a consequence is still a decent place to live. My niece and her family moved from Las Vegas to Cedar City, UT where they bought 21 acres and built a 7,000 sf home about seven years ago. It is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen! They moved there principally so that their two children could grow up in a decent environment and go to schools that actually educate the kids that attend them. They are not Mormons, but they say that the Mormons make the place the decent spot that it is.
Thanks, always nice to hear positive comments where “the Mormons” are concerned.
Not “despite” but rather “because of”.
Mitt Romney is not an aberration. He is instead a typical representative of the Mormon leadership.
Pope Francis is typical of the majority of nominal Catholics.
My observation as well. If Roman Catholics OR two major Protestant sects (say Baptists and Lutherans) voted like Mormons, then the Democrats would still be in the JFK mainstream and the loony left would still be on the fringe rather than in solid control of the party.
There would be fewer Somalis in Maine and Minnesota than Laotians.
