No. According to Forbes Magazine Ted Turner is the largest holder of real estate in the United States. He owns over two million acres of land in various states. Rhode Island reportedly covers only around 776,000 acres. You can check out a top ten list at the link provided below.

Definitely not. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) does own quite a bit of property, but it isn't anywhere near the amount of property owned by the Catholic Church. The Mormons own over 20,000 worship buildings (churches and temples) as well as some historic sites and charity ranches and farms. They have about 14 million members, so they are pretty big, but the Catholic Church has over 1.5 BILLION members. They own countless churches and cathedrals to house all those worshippers, in addition to thousands of monasteries, hospitals, homeless shelters, schools, and orphanages around the world. The Church also owns commercial real estate and undeveloped land.

Businesses owned by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) financially support the owners and their families.
