What do Mormons miss by believing what we do?
Being drunk, upchucking our lunch on the seat of our car or on our friends. And hangovers! Don't forget missing hangovers!
Dang, what a loss.
Getting pregnant out of marriage. What? You didn't know we don't believe in waiting until marriage for sex? That's right, no sexually transmitted diseases either.
Another dang.
Getting high on drugs, addiction, losing family and friends as we go in a downward spiral to homelessness.
Skipped stupidity there too.
Missing out winning the lottery or hitting the jackpot in Vegas.
I can't believe we'd miss the chance to blow paycheck after paycheck hoping on a billion to one odds of making it all back. But we don't gamble!
Triple dang.
Plus,
we don't curse
we don't smoke
we try to eat healthy
we don't look at pornography
we try to help others as often as we can
we believe in spending time with family, we even reserve Monday for Family Night
we go to Church
we pay tithing
we believe in being honest
Boy what a limiting lifestyle.
So why are Mormons so healthy and happy?
Beats me!!
Maybe it's because we miss out on all the things that make people stupid and have a life filled with guilt and loneliness.
Want to be happy, healthy and have real meaning in your life?

The Ten Commandments
Do Mormon's believe in following the ten commandments?
Yes. In today's crazy world it seems like people treat these more as the ten suggestions.
We believe in the ten commandments. Because we have a living prophet, we have other things we know the Lord wants us to do.
What are those things?
Some of them are:
Maintain a supply of food that will sustain you during difficult times.
Don't drink alcohol, don't smoke or chew tobacco, don't drink tea of coffee.
Don't take illegal drugs.
Live a moral life. Don't have sex with anyone who is not your spouse.
Be honest in all your dealings.
Help others.
Fast 2 meals per month and donate the value of those meals, and if you can afford it, more, to helping those who are less fortunate.
Repent and live a Christ-like life.
Learn more about Christ and his teachings in both the Bible and The Book of Mormon.
Be a good father or mother and teach your children to be Christ-like.
Participate in projects that help others.
Do genealogy research and find who your ancestors are and submit their names to be baptized by proxy so they will have the choice of following the Savior and accept the baptism in their behalf.
