There’s a perception that bloggers or individuals around the internet are “anti-Mormon” and/or only focus on the negative aspects of our religion, people or history. But just like with any story, there are two sides and this one is no different. So we have complied some of the positive quotes from bloggers and influencers from around the web to demonstrate that there are many individuals who are not of our faith who think of us in a positive light.

“Mormons can kick some serious butt on the running trails and also look better in hot running pants than I do.”

“Mormons tell really funny jokes. (The retired volunteer tour guides at the General Conference Center were awesomely funny!)”

“Mormons are well…nice. And just like me. Except more beautiful.”

“I’m wondering why all the Mormons I know, either through blogging or ‘in real life,’ always look like a million bucks? I mean do they take all the money the rest of us blow on alcohol and put it into ‘self-care?'”

“And parties? Those LDS ladies are decorators and entertainers, going all out for holidays and picnics. I get some of my favorite design inspiration from their blogs.”

“I’m not sure where I’m going with this, but in a post rife with gross generalizations, I’ll pile one more on. While I have sometimes looked at motherhood as something to be survived or endured, I think my Mormon friends see it as something to celebrate. As an ongoing special occasion…and who wouldn’t dress up for that?”

From Business Insider

“Less than 2% of Americans are Mormons, yet their commercial prominence belies their numbers. Mitt Romney founded Bain Capital, a private-equity powerhouse. Jon Huntsman senior (the father of Mr Romney’s rival for the Republican crown) founded Huntsman Corporation, an $11 billion chemicals giant. David Neeleman has founded two cut-price airlines: JetBlue in America and Azul in Brazil. Ralph Atkin started a third: SkyWest Airlines. Eric Varvel is the boss of Credit Suisse’s investment bank, Harris Simmons heads Zions Bancorporation, a more local bank, and Allan O’Bryant runs the Japanese arm of Reinsurance Group of America. J.W. Marriott runs the hotel chain his father created.”





From Teen Ink

“Mormons have this sickening ‘love thy neighbor’ attitude, and if you know a Mormon with a firm belief in their religion they are most of the time out doing something for someone else, doing a fundraiser, volunteering for a humanity project, helping a family with a member whom is sick, they are selfless people. Honestly it is sickening. The very thought of people constantly only wanting to help another person in need purely to help the other person and seeking no reward makes you pose the question is it all an act? What has been shown is no it isn’t an act, it is their chosen way of life. Mormons believe Jesus Christ to be the corner stone of their religion and try their hardest to be as much Christ-like as possible and as most people know Jesus Christ was the most perfect being to walk on this earth only ever serving his fellow man. Why then do people give them such a hard time if they are such good people?”

From Hutchison-Jones a Harvard University administrator

When asked “Why do negative images of Mormons linger?”

“There are a couple of reasons. You had the rise of evangelical Christianity in politics, and for conservative Protestant Christians, Mormons are not Christians; Mormons are a cult. So you had an increase in the amount of anti-Mormon propaganda coming out of religious communities.

The other people who are uncomfortable with Mormons are socially and politically liberal Americans. Polls ask, would you vote for a Mormon presidential candidate? People who self-identify as liberal have a tendency to say no. There’s a tendency to see Mormons as a hegemony, as if they were en masse in thrall to church leadership. The Moral Majority reached out to Mormons, and because of that association, liberals tend to see Mormons as off-limits. I had to get over some of that myself. That was the expectation I came into my research with. I headed off to the Mormon History Association national conference, and the group of scholars there are by and large Mormon, and they are not in any kind of political lockstep. There’s a wide diversity of opinion.”

From JewPac

“Why must Mormon girls be so hot? Is it like some kind of cruel trick God is playing on us non-mormons? If so, that’s pretty cruel.”
