Religion practiced as intended by God

In about 1820 AD, Elohim's messenger, the angel Moroni appeared to a man named Joseph Smith in USA and told Smith that God had commissioned him as His last Prophet. In about 610 AD Alla's messenger, the angel Gabriel appeared to a man named Mohammed in Saudi Arabia and told Mohammed that God had commissioned him as His last Prophet.

Joseph Smith rejected all other religions, but believed in many gods and in male superiority; women must dress modestly. Mohammed rejected the worship of many  gods and in male superiority; women must dress modestly.

Jos. Smith could produce divine revelations at short notice and often simply to suit himself (especially, and like Muhammad, when he wanted a new girl and wished to take her as another wife).

No dinking of alcohol.  If you're caught drinking  you will be punished.
No dinking of hot drinks!  If you drink hot drinks you may be excommunicated, especially if it's coffee or tea. The ruler of the universe hates it if you do this. Drink all the coffee and tea you want, it's OK with Allah -- no problem.  "Wine and all intoxicating beverages are impure, but opium and hashish are not." ~ Ayatollah Khomeini
No smoking!  It's not because smoking bad for you; it's just ... because. Smoking a Hooka is ok; everybody does it and it's no problem.  Well, men only. And smoking hashish  is fine.
At Palmyra, in the United States, Smith established the first Mormon Community. At Medina, in Saudi Arabia, Mohammed established the first Moslem Community.
Smith was succeeded by a series of prophets (seers and revelators) under whom Mormonism burst forth as a new religion in Utah, USA. Mohammed was succeeded by a series of rulers (caliphs) under whom Islam burst forth as a new power in the world.
Elohim (God) created the planet but you can create one  too. Allah created the world but you can't create one.

...contains comparative quotes from the Old and New Testaments, the Book of Mormon, and the Qur'n. "As I studied the Qur'n, I noted significant doctrinal concepts that are clearly corollary to those found in the accepted Scriptures of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints."

The principles by which to live includes concern for the poor; banking is eschewed; wealth is treasured.
Mormons believe the Book of Mormon has remained unchanged since its creation, but there have been many revisions. Mohammedans believe the Koran has remained unchanged since its creation, but science shows that this is a wrong belief.
"A common LDS apologist claim is that Jos. Smith was just a simple homespun country boy on the American frontier, far too ignorant to write anything as wondrous as the Book of Mormon, much like Muslims who argue that Muhammad was far too illiterate to write the noble Koran."  ~ Complete Heretic's Guide to Western Religion: The Mormons by David Fitzgerald

If a person fulfills the divine commands of Earth's gods, he or she may go to one of four celestial  kingdoms. If a person fulfills God's divine commands he or she will go to heaven.
 Westerners say "God forbid" Islamists say "Allah willing"
Mormons worship the heavenly father, Elohim, and the Holy Ghost, and Jesus Christ, but not Mother Gonhorra or Joseph Smith. Muslims worship the one and only true Allah but not necessarily Mohmmed.
Obedience to their husbands -
"We will put the sisters under covenant to obey the law of Obedience to their husbands"

"You and each of you solemnly covenant and promise before God, angels, and these witnesses at this altar that you will each observe and keep the law of your husbands, and abide by his counsel in righteousness."

Obedience to their husbands -
"A woman takes pleasure in being a follower and finds ease in obeying a husband who loves her."

"Understanding that the woman was created to be an obedient wife and mother and that the man was created to fend for his family holds the secret to a happy marriage."

~ Professor Abou Salama,
   Cairo University,
   Member of the Muslim Brotherhood

To worship means to grovel before God, to praise Him because you are a piece of shit and no matter how hard you try you'll never be otherwise -- you have original Sin. To worship means to grovel before Allah, to praise Him because you are a piece of shit and no matter how hard you try you'll burn in hell (burnt skin to be replaced periodically) -- unless you kill an infidel or a Jew.
Basic Mormon Practice is summoned up this way:
  1.  Elohim et al - Faith: three Gods for Earth  prophet is Jos. Smith

  2.  Prayer - Daily prayers

  3.  N/A - Some concern the needy: Deseret Industries

  4.  Fasting - Self-purification through fasting

  5.  "Go to the Temple" - Pilgrimage to a nearby Mormon temple

Some critical descriptions of Mormonism have focused on the Mormon concept of always voting Republican, whenever possible.

Basic Islam Practice is summoned up in the Five Pillars of Worship:
  1.  Shahada - Faith: one God and His prophet is Muhammad

  2.  Salat - 5 daily prayers

  3.  Zakat - Concern for and alms-giving to the needy

  4.  Sawm - Self-purification by fasting

  5.  Hajj - Pilgrimage to Mecca for those who are able

Many polemical descriptions of Islam have focused critically on the Islamic concept of jihad. Jihad, considered the sixth pillar of Islam by some Muslims, has been understood to mean holy war in these descriptions.

In Mormonism, Abraham is recognized as a prophet, patriarch and messenger of pure unadulterated gibberish -- the Book of Abraham (BOM). In Islam, Abraham is recognized as a prophet, patriarch and messenger, archetype of the perfect Muslim, and reformer.

 Gruesome Foreskin Amputations

To prove his love for Saul's daughter, David brings the king foreskins of a  hundred slain Philistines.

Gruesome Amputations -
Koran 26:49 --


Said he (Pharaoh):
You believe in him before I give you permission; most surely he is the chief of you who taught you the magic, so you shall know: certainly I will cut off your hands and your feet on contra-lateral sides, and certainly I will crucify you all.

  Stoning

In Mormonism, stoning has not gained popularity.

Circumcision -

We're agnostic on that, but most us males are circumcised.

Circumcision -

If the man thinks that he has not entered the woman's vagina beyond the circumcision ring, ablution is not required. And We're aginn it!

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the name of the religion.  However, the moniker Mormon is despised and discouraged by  prophets of the LDS church. (A preferred official name has not yet been divined. See Deseret News, 1999.)  Some scholars think the name should be:             Link

"Church ← of Latter-day Saints ← of Jesus Christ"
and not
"Church ← of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints"

Islam is the name of the religion.  Muslim is the name of a member of the Islamic religion.  However, the monikers Muzzie / Mussie / Mußi are  considered highly offensive slang terms for a Muslim.

Mormons constitute about 90 percent of the world's Mormons.  The remainder belong to the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (RLDS)  See also name change: “Community of Christ.

Polygamist Mormons cluster in Utah, Arizona, Mew Mexico, Texas and Idaho, USA.
Sunnis constitute about 90 percent of the world's Moslems.




Polygamist Mohammedans cluster in the Middle East and inhabit the USA .

Religions cluster. You'll probably die with the
religion which you were issued where you were born.

  Mormonism had a schism during its formative years creating the LDS church and the FLDS church, in Utah. Islam had a schism during its formative years creating the Sunni religion and the Shiite religion, in Arabia.
  After Joseph Smith's death, there was a dispute about who should succeed him.  This caused the schism between the LDS brand of Mormonism and the RLDS brand.  The two religions have been at each other's throats since then, each disrespecting the other. After Mohammed's death, there was a dispute about who should succeed him.  This caused the schism between the Sunni brand of Islam and the Shi'ites.  The two religions have been slitting each other's throats since then, each despising the other.

An infidel (atheist , agnostic) is tolerated but must pay a special hidden tax*. If you live in America, that's the rule.

*Everyone, including atheists are taxed via tax exemptions for religion: religious donations, expenses, church property, fire and police protection, etc.

An infidel ( dhimmi - ذمي‎ ) is tolerated but must pay an official tax ( jizja جزْية‎ ) in order to live within Islam's rule. Qur'an 9:29*

*Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Latter Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low.

McKay, Joseph Fielding Smith, Harold B. Lee, Spencer W. Kimball, Ezra Taft Benson, Howard W. Hunter, Gordon B. Hinckley, are the only true prophets, so far (2007). God is the only true god and Mohammed is his only true prophet; A’isha: Mohammed’s nine-year old wife (no sex) is also  revered. 

Jesus is OK, but not a prime prophet.

No Mormon prophet ever actually prophesied anything which later came to pass.

An Islamic appeal court has upheld a sentence of death by stoning for adultery against a Nigerian woman.

Amina Lawal, 30, was found guilty by a court in Katsina state after bearing a child outside marriage - Aug 2002.

In her defense, lawyers used the notion of "extended pregnancy", arguing that under Sharia law, a five year interval is possible between human conception and birth.

In addition, five U.K. bookstores selling the novel were the target of bombings, and two bookstores in Berkeley, California were firebombed. ~ Source Wikipedia)
