How come Mormons hate white people?

They don't. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) don't hate any race. There are over 14 million Mormons coming from every race and nationality. Mormons believe that God is the father and creator of all people and He loves everyone equally - and they believe that we as individuals must love everyone equally as well. The Mormon church was started by white people, and about half of it's membership consists of caucasians from North America, Europe, and Australia/New Zealand.

What is the difference between members of the LDS Church and Mormons?

Members of the LDS Church are individuals who belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, commonly known as the LDS Church. Mormons, on the other hand, is a broader term that refers to all individuals who belong to various denominations within the Latter Day Saint movement, including the LDS Church. In essence, all members of the LDS Church are Mormons, but not all Mormons are members of the LDS Church.


Are children you have on earth basically other Mormons waiting to come down from heaven or?

Well, if you have children on earth they are not waiting to come down from heaven, since they have already come down from heaven. Nobody can be a Mormon without being baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which could not happen without their knowledge and consent. So - no, unless your children were baptized Mormons, they are not Mormons.

Yes, definately. There are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) in every state of the US. There are over 6 million Mormons in the United States.

What ethnic background are most Mormons from?

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) are scattered throughout the world and come from every ethnic background. The Church does not keep data on the race or ethnicity of it's members, so it would be impossible to know for sure which ethnic background most Mormons worldwide are from, but we do know that about 50% of Mormons are English-speaking. The next most popular language spoken by Mormons is Spanish. I would estimate that in the United States, about half of Mormons are Caucasian, followed by Hispanics, Blacks, Asians, and Native Americans in that order. Worldwide, the race or ethnicity of Mormons could be different.
