There are far more members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) than Catholics in Utah. Utah's population is approximately 60% Mormon and 10% Catholic.
However, the Catholic Church remains the second largest religious denomination in Utah.
Ask the Mormans.
The Mormon pioneers were seeking religious freedom. They had been persecuted and kicked out of their homes in other states.
only chatholics have oil. also just to add christians and catholics are not the same.nor are mormans and christians the same they are totally diffrent
No. Catholics have been baptized as members of the Roman Catholic Church. Mormons have been baptized as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While they might have some similar beliefs, they are not the same thing.
Brigham Young was considered by most to be the leader of the Church at that time. They believed that he led them to Deseret (now Utah) through the inspiration and revelation of God.
Battle of Mormans happened on 1814-02-17.
About 5% of all churches in the state with most of the churches as LDS,
I have a house and Utah and have been to Oregon before. In Utah you have some very ecstatic religious people. This could be rather annoying to some atheist people. A family member of mine agreed that mormans that don't live in Utah are more 'laid back'. In Utah there is a large military bomb testing site where they tested the first nuclear bomb, and from those 2 things I can already conclude that Oregon is more laid back.
im not to sure but i think its alot of diff. things.
The Amorines were a group of about 600 men in Utah, in the late 19th century, who sought to control politics enough to eliminate any Catholics from getting into elected office. I don't think their influence lasted long, they were exposed in the local paper at that time, and they were only influencial in Utah.
According to the offical 2008 statistics for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called "mormons"), there are 1,857,667 church members in the state of Utah worshipping in 4,734 congregations. The source of this information is below under "Related Links".
I live in salt lake and would say it has the largest concentration of mormans as percentage of total population. But most mormans in the US live out of slc. Out of utah in fact. ---------------- No, definately not. While Salt Lake City is the headquarters of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church), most American Mormons live outside of Utah. (There are 6,060,000 baptized Mormons in the United States, and 1,884,000 of those live in Utah.) So, less than 1/3 of American Mormons live in Utah. Most Mormons in Utah live outside of Salt Lake City. The city itself is actually quite liberal and diverse, and the homes are small and expensive compared to the rest of the state. The suburbs surrounding Salt Lake City are where the majority of Mormons in Utah live. Some of the suburbs are more than 90% Mormon. About 80,000 of the 6,060,000 American Mormons live in Salt Lake City, which is just over 1.3%.
