Well, do they believe the crazy bullshit, or are they just an opportunist looking to make connections? Church is lucrative.

How could you be a Mormon if you don’t genuinely believe that Jackson County Missouri is the actual location of the Garden of Eden?

The funny thing is, I grew up with a bunch of Mormons for friends and one teacher I know of, and I never found out about most of the stuff they believe until much later. At least they (the ones I grew up with anyway) have the decency to not go around spreading their dogma to non-believers until they've already thoroughly roped them into their cult.
