    The only people there that might be happy are little kids because the whole philosophy of Mormons is to stifle yourself into a perpetual childlike mindset, but even then the kids would only be happy as long as they’re not being abused. And abuse is rampant in any society especially oppressed societies. That society is just purely oppressive.

      Ain’t that the truth, “Stifle Yourself” should be our state motto! I was raised among mormons and went to church myself as a kid but never felt like part of it. And, I have to say - the Mormon kids were the most ill-behaved brats I’ve ever been around. They were the ones as teens that were always in trouble for getting teen girls pregnant or getting caught doing drugs. But, the parents still look the other way - after all, they’re going on a mission - surely they must truly be saints after all.
