Here are a bunch of photos from the Mormon Square in Salt Lake City.

It's the creepiest happiest place on Earth!

It's an interesting place. A very interesting place. It reminds me SO much of Disney World. I have never seen anything quite so perfectly manicured in my entire life. Every blade of grass is perfectly trimmed, and the flowers all look like plastic. It is just amazingly clean, and perfect.

I have nothing against the Mormons, specifically. If you step back and really look at the beliefs of any major religion, they are all equally silly.

My advice for anyone visiting hereā€¦ Just, don't make eye contact. There are lots of guys with white shirts, and women with long dresses who would LOVE to talk to you! As soon as you make eye contact, they think you want them to. NOT!!! They are extremely creepy friendly and are very happy to tell you about their religion, and think that you really want to hear about it. They all look like Barbie, and Ken.

The common misconception about Mormons is that the men all have multiple wives, but they are quick to assure you that, that is not the case. That is just a small offshoot of the mormons and is frowned upon by the church. (Although, Brigham Young, one of the founders of the Mormon religion had a total of 55 wives and 56 children. We'll just ignore that fact)

It really is an interesting place to visit, but, I wouldn't want to live there.
