Also known as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Mormons dont like to be called "Mormons." They prefer the "Latter Day Saints" label. Some Christian denominations consider it a cult but Mormons strongly disagree. Mormonism was founded by Joseph Smith in upstate New York in the 1800s. Latter Day Saints members follow the Book of Mormon and call it "Another Testamant of Jesus Christ," which I find hogwash, because the Bible specifically teaches that it is the ONLY Word of God. The early Mormons migrated to Illinois then to Salt Lake City, Utah where its headquarters is today. Mormonism is among the world's fastest-growing religions.
Key beliefs:
1. Joseph Smith, its founder, was a "prophet" and was led by the angel Moroni to a hill in upstate New York to discover a set of golden plates that contained prophecies that are not found in the Bible. At this site he allegedy saw God and Jesus. What crap. The Bible teaches that no human being can lay their eyes upon God and survive.
2. They believe that the Garden of Eden was located at the present day site of Kansas City, Missouri and that Zion will be located there in the future. What crap. The Bible specifically says the Garden was in the Fertile Crescent between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.
3. Jesus and Lucifer (Satan) are brothers and Godchildren to God the Father and his "wife." This implies a sexual union between God the Father and some Godess. What hogwash.
4. God is made of flesh and bone becuase the Bible says mankind is made in the image of God.
5. Prophets from around the time of the Tower of Babel built a boat and sailed to what is now the North American continent.These people are the ancestors to ancient North American tribes.
6. celestial marriage in that marriage continues in the afterlife.
7. baptism of the dead in that one can be baptised on behalf of a deceased loved one
8. family-oriented and lots of kids
9. DOES NOT BELIEVE IN MONOGOMY. The practice was denounced by the Church in the 1800s.
10.Jesus appeared to Indians in ancient America sometime after his resurrection in the first century.
11.The leaders of each church is considered a "prophet" and is specifically ordained by God himself to lead a congregation.

One of America's finest cities. Sometimes called the Emerald City. One of America's most educated cities. One of America's most "fit" cities. It is a city with clean air, lakes, mountains, culture, architecture, high-tech jobs and yes, plenty of rain. It lies in the Pacific Northwest along Puget Sound in Western Washington state. Although Seattle is known for having plenty of rain, it doesn't get as much rain as even Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, washington DC or New York. It's just that Seattle's rain is more misty and frequent. Seattle is for coffee lovers and is home to Starbucks and Seattle's Best coffee retailers. Seattle is also home to Amazon.com, COSTCO, Microsoft and Bill Gates. Even though its leading employer, Boeing, packed up and went to Chicago, Boeing still manufactures its aircraft there. Here is what makes Seattle Seattle:
1. Microsoft and Bill Gates and Paul Allen
2. Boeing
3. Amazon.com
4. coffee, especially Starbucks
5. rain
6. the Cascade Mountains and Mount Rainier
7. high-tech jobs

Seattle is an awsome example of America's finest cities. Although not without its problems, it is still a great place to be. There is much more to like than dislike about this place.

The homosexual capital of the United States. The Peoples Republic of San Francisco. A place where reality is not. A nice place to visit but you don’t want to live there. Was once one of America’s crown jewel cities but now has more drawbacks than qualities. It has become the American center of radical homosexuality, socialism, liberalism, activism, judicial activism, and other social nuances. Radical homosexuals literally hold Gay Pride parades on Castro Street to flaunt their perverted and immoral lifestyle. Its activist mayor, Gavin Newsom, has overstepped his bounds by deliberately “marrying” homosexual couples when California law strictly forbids it. He also sided with illegal immigrants who held a march in the city denouncing the right of American’s Freedom of Speech. The city is so liberal that it will not tolerate members of the American armed forces being in the city. Hell, it even screamed when the Blue Angels wanted to do a show over the San Francisco Bay. What a disgrace. It is not a coincidence that it now has the largest number of homeless than most other US cities. The cost of living has become so out of control that citizens are moving out to the burbs causing the city population to decline rapidly since 2000. When God punishes the United States, San Fran will probably be the first city he knocks off. This is what makes San Francisco San Francisco:
1. fog
2. the Golden Gate Bridge
3. Alcatraz Island
4. its numerous hills
5. plenty of Asians
6. Fishermans Warf
7. the Embarcadero
8. queers
9. hippies
10. activists
11. liberalism
12. socialism
13. the TransAmerica Pyramid
14. cable cars
15. an outragious cost of living

Your spirit. The real you that you can't see in the mirror. How you feel. How you think. How you act.
The worst personality of those I have come across are those who are aloof and dull with a capital-D. They dont seem to have any sense of humor, or any interest in conversing with people, don't know how to sound like a person of reasonable intelligence and are a person of very few words and thought.
