    I let some Mormons come in once when I was in my early 20’s because I wanted to confirm some things I had heard about their religion that they usually don’t share with outsiders. We talked for about an hour and then I asked them to leave. They came back the next day with their leader, and we talked some more. Then they came back the next day with their leader, and his leader! At that point I just told them point blank that it was nice talking to them, but I’m never converting to Mormonism, so stop coming back. To their credit, they said okay and left. It was an interesting experience.

        Mormons seem to walk the walk a lot more than other religions I’ve been exposed to. They generally live by the rules they espouse, and they have a robust support network for their members, including things like discount grocery stores. It’s not for me, but as religious people go, they seem pretty okay.
