The last question is kind of vague. There are a lot of things that Mormons aren't for example cannibals, pirates, aliens, etc.

yeah. I tried "black."

Level 21

Apr 30, 2014

I tried "sane", "intelligent", both of them are correct, but not on this quiz.

That is racist and just plain wrong. Mormons can be anyone, race, gender, or age wise. They just need to have the right beliefs.

And that is wrong that Mormons aren't intelligent or sane. I know many Mormons you are quite excelled in education and knowledge, so that is quite rude

The real name is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Not " Mormonism" Just so you know.

Level 82

Mormonism is an appropriate name, though really they ought to be called Smithians. Calling the religion Mormonism assumes that the prophet Mormon was a real person and that Joseph Smith really did find golden plates. In the same way it is more accurate to call Muslims Mohametans, as Westerners did for hundreds of years up until pretty recently. Though they prefer to be called Muslisms, the title is actually less accurate and less descriptive. TCoJCoLDS is not just a horrible mouthful, but also falls into this category of being less descriptive and useful, even if the church members themselves would prefer it.

Actually The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the actual name for the church. They are Christians not Mormons

Now we don't call each other "Mormons" or call our religion "Mormonism". So the title of the quiz should change now.

Level 78

Yes, you ought to clarify the last question. Perhaps something along the line of "What controversial practice, once advocated by the prophet, has since been banned in the mainstream Mormon church?"

Level 26

Technically, Moroni is not on top of every Mormon temple (e.g., Mesa, Laie, St. George, Manti, Logan). Perhaps using the word "most" instead of "every."

Level 82

Jan 25, 2013

So... Joseph Smith was not a (real) Mormon?

Level 5

Oct 20, 2014

Joseph Smith was a real mormon. Are you referring to the fact that he had practiced polygamy? Because if so, he had a reason for polygamy. At the time, men were being killed by persecutors and died, well, a lot. So Joseph Smith got revelation from God to allow polygamy, not because they wanted to do something crazy, but because by men marrying more than one woman these men can provide and help women who had lost their husbands.

Let's clarify all of this 1) Joseph Smith restored the gospel on the Earth, he did not "create" it. 2) We do prefer the title The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. If not that, we prefer LDS, not Mormon. 3) It is Mormonism because Mormon was one of the people to write in our book, The Book of Mormon. 4) On that note, The Book of Mormon is just another testament of Jesus Christ, like the bible. Don't worry, we read that often too. 5) Many LDS people are very intelligent and quite sane. 6) There are members all around the world, making it a mixed race religion. &) Yes we are Christians, we believe in Jesus Christ.

Thank you for listening to my information about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I also appreciate those who stood up for my religion. I cannot thank you enough.

There are a lot of issues with this quiz. I highly suggest revision and clarifying language.

This quiz is way outdated and worded poorly. The last question just had me guessing LDS related things I could think of.
