Mormon Statistics (from PEW)


What:
Pew Forum presents a large scale study of Mormon demographics, religious beliefs and practices, and social and political views.

Quote: "A strong majority of Mormons (88%) say there are absolute standards of right and wrong. This is higher than among the general population and most other religious traditions."

Reaction: I highly encourage you (my 3 regular readers) to visit this site. There's a lot of really interesting observations and comparisons with other religions. Oh, and isn't that a cool picture of Pres. Monson and Pres. Obama looking at a blow-up version of Obama's family tree (with Sen. Reid, Elder Oaks, and some other guy in the shot as well)?
