I’ve lived among them for 65 years and there are good people and bad, as in every other circumstance. The mormons do live by the rules they espouse (which isn’t so great for mormon women) but, they also do take care of neighbors in need and always bring over food when they make too much. I can’t fault them for trying to be as good mormons as possible. But I do object to the term “Latter Day Saints” because, to me, no human is meant to be a saint. We’re meant to be human and have human failings and learn from them.
