      The comparison is with trump. I might vote for a Scientologist if he’s my only other option.

      Mormons are afaik relatively chill people even if some of their beliefs are a bit whack. I’ve met a few IRL, and that South Park episode fits my understanding of them pretty well. For the most part, I think they follow the actually good parts of the teachings of Christianity rather than going to the fucked up fundamental/GOP version of it.

        One side of my extended family converted to the Latter-Day Saints. I’ve been to two Mormon weddings and even once went on a date with a Mormon lady who came from Texas.

        They’re chill people, 100%. In fact, they’re probably the closest you’ll get to traditional family values in today’s society. Contrary to beliefs spread by shows like Family Guy, they don’t believe in polygamy. They just don’t like alcohol or caffeine.
