And on the surface, they have a very appealing whitebread sort of June Cleaverness that attracts (white) families with kids. And they always have the prettiest churches in town. Their supposed belief in the bible (as seen on TV commercials) draws Christians who haven't really studied the tenets of their own faith and don't realize what a contradiction Mormonism and Christianity are.

It's kind of like going to a car dealership and buying a Dodge Ram, only to find that, although the bodywork looks identical, there's a lawnmower engine under the hood. That runs on dead puppies. From space.

I lost my metaphor at some point.
