Do you have mormons in your country? I have never met any myself but a lot of them do missions in Norway. In an alternate reality I might be a mormon.

One day in Japan a white American dude wearing short blond hair and glasses on a bike started to talk to me near the Niigata main station where all the young people hung out.
He was a Mormon and tried to get me into joining his local Mormon church and he gave me at least 3 different pamphlets.
 
I already had another negative experience of religious people trying to get me into their rooms so I threw the pamphlets in the trash.

"What's the point of anything?" Very slavic question

They believe Joseph Smith was a prophet basically. I guess that's the point. They are very evangelic, actually more so than anyone I think because they are required to be missonaries in their 20's.

That's a lot of typos but you know what I mean. Other religious groups aren't required to be missionaries in the same way.

They exist here and there but there's not many of them even here in the Helsinki schitty boi region, JW's are far more numerous. Most or perhaos all of the missionaries I've seen are foreigners
 
It's more interesting than real Christianity to be sure but it's too much of a cult to for me to want to join them. Not as controlling as JW's tho

They have their own holy books (The Book of Mormon, Pearl of Great Price and possibly others) in addition the Bible
 
They believe that there are many gods in the universe ruling over their own planets and that anyone can become a god after death my taking part in certain mormon rituals

What a shame...

JWs are probably worse than muslims when I think about it. They segregate themselves and hate everyone else.

They believe the garden of Eden is close to where I live, which, if true, means I don't know how their hell could be worse.

They have a """"church"""" near where I live.
JWs are more common tho.
I think we also have Baha'I (occasionally they get featured on TV) but idk where they actually are or if it's just some TV person's immediate relatives.

I had Moonies hassle me in München.
The girls were cute so I took time and trolled them back with Arianism.

Sorry to hear that

There are some but no one take them serious, the only thing I know about them is that they dont drink coffee nor play with fireworks, but maybe the fireworks thing is because most of them are american missionaries

This thread reminds me I worked with someone who was formerly a member of some strange sect of fundamentalist Mormonism and then converted to Baha'i. One of the strangest and most intelligent people I've ever met. He had an engineering degree yet preferred to work on a loading dock and read physics books. He also taught himself to read ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, and had advanced knowledge of Mayan history.
 
Before he retired he told me he was working on a religious book detailing the links between Baha'i and Mormonism and how they could and should be merged into one religion.
