"I am so tired of people bashing on someone's religion on this site when, chances are, they probably don't understand anything about the religion or the people who believe in it."
I couldn't care less what makes you tired. I don't know about the OP, but I know PLENTY about Mormonism and Mormons. I don't necesssarily hate Mormons THEMSELVES, but I do hate Mormonism ITSELF. I agree with the OP that it's a fucked up religion.
"I am not Mormon, but I've known mormons and they are very peaceful, kind people."
I know lots of Mormons are good people. Does that make their religion less fucked up? Apparently, it's a huge revelation that good people can follow fucked up things too.
"They have never mistreated anyone because of their sexualality, race, or different beliefs."
Sure you're not talking out of your ass? Because, for example, Mormons have a history of discriminating blacks. This is just one example though.
Perhaps the OP should've handled that better, yes. However, the Mormons who ACTUALLY follow the teachings of Mormonism are just plain assholes, because those teachings are fucked up. The "Mormons" who don't may be nice and all, but they're hypocrites. That's a bit better I reckon, but hypocrisy sure isn't great either.
"So what if they believe in something that you don't agree with?"
Well, if it's DEMONSTRABLY false and immoral...
"As long as they are not hurting you or someone else then it should be none of your business what their beliefs and practices are."
But they ARE hurting people genius and even if they weren't, their faith would still be DEMONSTRABLY idiotic.
"You don't want anyone disrespecting you about your beliefs so don't do the same to them!"
I hate Mormons

Not all beliefs are equally valid, you simpleton.
