No. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) is a religion. One of the tenants of this religion is that it is the only true religion. Therefore a member cannot practice another religion without admitting they are wasting their time with a false and apostate religion. Anyone practicing another religion can be considered apostate and excommunicated.

Do Mormons literally believe they are the one true religion and God's kingdom here on earth and all other religions are from Satan and not from God?

While Mormons believe they are the true church, I think most churches feel that way about their own church. The LDS (Mormon) Church does not believe that other religions are from satan.


Did you know that according to Mormons and Mormonism all religion is a lie except for theirs of course theirs is the one true religion and this is their official position?

This is the official position of pretty much every religion worldwide. Most religions believe that theirs is the only true religion. Unlike many other religions, however, Mormons also believe that all other religions have some truth and therefore have good to contribute. Mormons seek out the good in all things (including other faiths) and celebrate the good.

No, Mormons believe that Jesus was crucified on a cross, just like most other Christians. Mormons believe and study the Bible throughly, so the accounts there are what we believe. Mormons dont however use the cross as a religious symbol like many other religions... Perhaps you are thinking of the Jehovah's Witnesses? They do not believe that Jesus died on a cross.

Some Mormons about their own faith, because they are trying to better educate themselves, or see if others think the same way.

Did you know that Mormons market their religion through missionaries professing your religion to be false untrue and of the devil and their religion as the one true religion given to them by God?

Most religions believe that their religion is the only true religion. Mormon missionaries are trained to NOT condemn or attack other faiths, only to discuss their own. Mormon missionaries focus on what makes their religion true, rather than what makes other religions false. Mormons do not attack or condemn any other religion, believing that all religions have some truth and good that should be celebrated.

Do voters know that Mormons claim all religions but theirs is false which is highly offensive highbrow condescending self-aggrandizing and wrong to teach to little children?

Most religions teach that theirs is the only correct religion and that all others are false. This is nothing unique to Mormonism. Mormons do believe that their religion is the one true faith, but they also believe that all religions have some truth. You will rarely, if ever, hear anyone speaking against another faith in a Mormon worship service. Most Mormons consider this unacceptable behavior and strive to find common ground with those of other faiths. Mormons believe that by uniting with other faith groups and focusing on their shared moral values, they can become a powerful force for good in the world. It is true that Mormons teach their religion to their children. This is also something most religious people will do. However, many Mormon families are open to allowing their children to explore other faiths, just as they would hope that other families would allow their children to explore Mormonism. As a child growing up in the Mormon Church, I was welcome to attend church with friends who belonged to other religions, and they frequently attended church with me in exchange.

Will it take many years for other religions to find mainstream acceptance in the US?

The term "other religions" is ambiguous. In the US and most of the western world there are Christians, Jews, Moslems, Mormons, Buddhists, Hindus, Wiccans, Native religions, Voodoo, Spiritualism, Scientology and many others. References to aspects of these religions and their beliefs are easily understood by most literate people. Practices of the religions (meditation, yoga, statues of the founders) are common even when divorced from the actual religious beliefs. All of these factors would class as mainstream acceptance to most observers.
