A Mormon is basically all the vile characteristics of a Republican (GOP kind, not IRA or whatever) wed to all the vile habits of the Taliban. Ie, they're religious fanatics, misogynists, gun-toting madmen, bent on world domination, abominably stupid and evil scheming geniuses, pro-capital punishment and anti- abortion, and, gaahk of gaahks, polygamists. I, of course, don't hold such views, but that's, in extreme form, the kind of prejudices against Mormons I might expect someone to have. Andreas
