I think what has happened is that you have been greatly misinformed about our beliefs.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints do not believe they have exclusive rights on good deeds, or even truth. We believe that all religions have at least some truth to them. I personally believe that there might even be religions out there who have nothing false within their beliefs. What sets members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints apart from other religions is that they believe they have all of the truth that God has revealed.
The Doctrine and Covenants of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints says "And when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated
God is no respecter of persons and accordingly when someone obeys His commandments then God will give them the promised blessings, regardless of their background and when someone does not obey His commandments then they will receive the promised cursing regardless of their background.
In addition, it does not say in Mormon theology or scripture that only Mormons will go to heaven. It is true that only righteous Mormons who have made and kept certain covenants will go to the highest degrees of heaven, but Mormons believe that all good and just people will God to heaven. Only those who deny God and Jesus Christ after knowing them will not enter heaven and become the 'sons of perdition' to live with Satan.

Does the Mormon god live on planet kolab?
No. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the 'Mormon' church) believe that God resides in heaven. Where exactly 'heaven' is remains unknown. A rarely used book of Mormon scripture describes a planet called 'Kolob' which is said to be "nearest to the throne of God". It never says that God lives there, only that it is the closest planet to where God lives.
Do Mormons believe knowing a Jew will help them get into heaven?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that "there is no other way nor means whereby man can be saved, only through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ" (Book of Mormon, Helaman 5:9. Also see Mosiah 3:17 and Alma 38:9). Mormons, like all Christians, believe that Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven.
What happens to a Mormon who gets married but doesn't go to the temple?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) believe that marriages performed outside of the Temple are for "time only", meaning that the marriage will only last until death, and the couple will not remain married in heaven. If the couple is not 'sealed' together in the temple in their lifetime, they can be sealed together by proxy after death. If this 'sealing' never takes place, the couple will not be married to each other in heaven. A 'sealing' is an ordinance that can be performed at the time of the legal marriage or any time after. To be 'sealed', a couple will kneel at an altar in the temple and their union will be blessed to last throughout eternity. If they each live faithful lives, they will not be separated at death, but will remain together in heaven. So if a Mormon gets married and never has their marriage 'sealed' in the temple, and nobody performs this sealing for them after they die, they will not be with their spouse in heaven.
Do Mormon husbands decide Heaven or Hell for wife?
No. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that Jesus Christ is the final judge of all mankind and that only He may decide if a person will be saved or damned.
Why doesn't Sam act like she is LDS-Mormon?
Because the character Sam on iCarly is not Mormon. Jenette McCurdy, the actress who plays Sam, may be, but her religion has never officially been released, it is only speculation.

Yes
Will you see your lost pets in heaven?
Although the existence of Heaven is an ongoing and never-ending debate, and some believe that humans are the only beings in posession of souls, and therefore the only things capable of entering heaven, you could still meet your dead dog in heaven, assuming you make it there yourself.
Did Matt stone go on an LDS mission?
No. Matt Stone, creator of South Park, could not have served as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" or "LDS" church) because he has never been a Mormon. The Mormon Church only allows baptized members to serve as missionaries, and Matt Stone has never been a baptized Mormon. Matt Stone has said that he considers himself ethnically Jewish, but that he grew up agnostic, has never been a member of any organized religious group, and currently identifies himself as an atheist.
Where do the Mormon god lives?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church), like all Christians, believe that God lives in Heaven. They do not assign heaven to any specific place or location, and can only speculate as to where it is or what it looks like.A less commonly used Mormon scripture gives some insight, saying that a planet called "Kolob" is "nearest to the throne of God" and that there, "a day is as a thousand years". (See Pearl of Great Price, Abraham chp. 3) However, it specifically mentions that God does not live on Kolob, only near to it. Mormons do not know if Kolob is any planet that mankind has discovered or not.
Why does it always seems to come down to being a good person and doing good or being a Mormon but never both?
Most people, both religious and not religious, agree that being/doing good is very important. Not only does it bring happiness to you personally, it brings happiness to others and just generally makes society function. Being a Mormon doesn't really have much to do with it, aside from the fact that most Mormons are considered good people and do a lot of good in their communities. Just being a good person or being a Mormon (or being a good person and a Mormon) isn't enough in the long run, however. The name of your church or the good deeds you do can't guarantee you'll get to heaven.
Do Mormons believe in past lives?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that life is eternal - we existed prior to this mortal life and will exist after this mortal life. This is not considered to be multiple lives, but different stages in one life. Mormons believe that all people lived in heaven with God prior to being born on this earth, and that we will return to heaven to live with God again after we die. Mormons do not believe in reincarnation or the idea that you may live multiple lives on earth. The only 'past life' was in heaven with God, and the only 'next life' is in heaven with God (or, for some, in hell with Satan).
