Why can Mormonism be described as pushing against the currents of American society?

Mormonism, along with many other conservative Christian groups, are seen as 'pushing against the currents of American society' because they do not approve of the direction they perceive that society is going. Things such as adultery, immorality, immodesty, drunkenness, drug use, and dishonesty are becoming very common, accepted, and sometimes even praised in American society. Conservative Christian groups, including Mormons, see this as unbiblical and against the will of God. They believe that it is their duty to God to stand up for Biblical principles by resisting and even fighting against the direction that American society is heading.

What do people have against Mormonism?
The reasons why people dislike Mormonism vary widely. Most often it is just because people dislike beliefs and opinions that are different from their own. Some people have been misinformed about Mormonism and dislike it because of information which they think is true but actually is not. Still others dislike Mormonism just because it is a popular thing to do, although they may not know much about it. Others are against Mormonism because they were once a part of it and have felt wronged or offended by it in some way. For the most part, most people seem to either a.) recognize that they don't really know enough about Mormonism to have an opinion about it; or b.) think that it's a fine religion for those who choose it although they do not personally agree with it's doctrines or practices. Those who are actually antagonistic against Mormonism are quite few, but they are a very outspoken bunch.
Does Mormonism permit same-sex marriage?
No, the LDS church does not perform such marriages and actively lobbies against their legalization.
Is Mormonism absolute proof that nothing is real only made up concepts of expectations thus nullifying the human experience?
No. This completely goes against the most basic basic concept in Mormonism, which says that there is an absolute truth and God desires His children to seek after it. Mormonism strongly rejects the idea that truth is subjective.

How do electric ells move?
They move just like snake do. They use small currents in the water to push against to propel themselves forward. Often, these currents are undetectable. Also, if there are no currents available, they use small "fins" to push against the water to move forward.

Does the wrath of God prove Gods anger with Mormons as a sign to the world?
Do you have any evidence of the wrath of God being against Mormons in particular? Nothing has occurred that seems to be specifically targeted against Mormonism, which would lead me to believe that the wrath of God is not against the Mormons, therefore proving that He is not angry with them.
