Of or relating to the deluded, romantic, moronic writings of Stephanie Meyer and other authors that share her religious upbringing.
"I'm gonna blow your Frickin' head off!",a quote from New Moon, is just one example of the Mormonic skewed perspective on life that some people whose religion is based in Utah have.

A colloquial term encompassing the combination of doctrine, culture and lifestyle unique to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While the term was originally a pejorative invented by persecutors of the Church, it has since become largely acceptable and is even used among some Latter-day Saints.
According to The Associated Press Stylebook, the term “Mormonism” is not correctly applied to Protestant groups such as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Community of Christ, etc..

Salt Lake City, Utah, is to Mormonism what Vatican City is to Catholicism: an international headquarters serving the needs of adherents in many nations across the world.

A religion that is greatly misunderstood. Many only know them because of their missionaries that visit door-to-door. Many misconceptions are that they can have more than one wife. That is a lie. When the church was restored by Joseph Smith (who was not a crazy guy) everyone was allowed to have more than one wife. Another, we do not offer money to God or Jesus, it's called tithing. It is given to the church to pay for more churches, temples, the MTC (Missionary Training Center), etc. Another is that people believe we created a new Bible. That is incorrect. Joseph Smith recovered the Book of Mormon about a century ago after praying to God, asking about which religion to join. God answered said none were right. We also do not believe that you have to be a mormon, or you'll go to hell. Only those who are truly evil go to hell (murderers, rapists, ect.) Some of us do have many children because one of our duties is to have as many as possible, but it isn't like we actually have hundreds like many people joke around about. Also, we aren't really called 'Mormons,' that is just the slang term. We are actually LDS, or Latter-Day Saints. One last thing; we believe in God the Father, Christ the Son, and in the Holy Ghost. They are the Godhead, separate but one. Three different people, all here for the same thing.
Person 1: Hey, what church do you go to?
Person 2: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Person 1: Isn't that Mormon?
Person 2: That's what many know us by.
Person 1: Wow. Just want to say, Joseph Smith was some crazy old guy. I can't believe you worship him. Oh, and you like, sacrifice money to him or something. That's just stupid.
Person 2: He wasn't crazy, he was blessed. If you actually want to learn some real facts about us then read the Book of Mormon.

A commonly misunderstood and stereotyped christian religion. Called Mormons because of their unique book, "The Book of Mormon" - which is called such after the name of the person that put the ancient records together and buried them. Really named "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints" or LDS, for short. Nobody is required to pay without their own will. There are no rules, there are guidelines.
Mormons are not forced to become missionaries. There are a lot of people that never go on one. Only the most devoted go on missions, mormons are not brainwashed.
A religion that beleives in where one is going in this life and after this life, rather than focusing completely on the past and the death of Christ. There is no cross on the church buildings for this reason.
A religion that beleives that Everyone has a chance. Always and forever. Mormons beleive in forgivness and eternal salvation. They beleive that people that never heard of God before have a chance.
They believed that smoking and drinking was bad before there anyone knew it was hazardous to health.
Mormons are most commonly nice and have good morals.
Many LDS live in Utah.
Most mormons love Jello.

Mormons are treated with prejudice.
Missionaries walk around all day 15 hours a day for 2 years, and have 80% of the doors SLAMMED in their face.
Brigham Young did not commit suicide.

pathetic group of mindless imbeciles who go onto urbandictionary.com to try and cast as many votes against the honest definitions of them like it will help there cause. why mormons are even searching a web site like urbandictionary.com is beyond me... it is naturally suited for content that may be insulting and against there religion.
"can u believe what they said about mormon's on urbandictionary.com? i went and cast my vote against them because that made me flippin' mad!"

Crazy cultist group that believed black people were unholy, until a sudden "revalation in 1977", when they realized it was not good public relations. They preform many satanic-like rituals in their temples. They have strict beliefs that if you are not mormon, you will not be going to heaven, and they look down upon you. I know these things because I lived in SLC, Utah, and as you may have guessed, I am not mormon. The mormons send out these insanely, borderline obnoxious, missonaries to convert you to their religion created by a crazy guy in 1830, named Joseph Smith. He said he got all the information for the religion on tablets that he read out of a hat. These people deny they are brainwashed, but how would they know, the brainwashing begins when they are too young to realize what is being said to them. They have secret handshakes and passwords to get into heaven. The mormon people pay 10% of ALL of their income to the church. Joseph Smith was a very racist man, he was strongly biased towards jews and negros. The mormons call their church, "THE Church," or "THE Church of Jesus Christ." They think they are the only true religion.
