Why Mormons don't have windows in their temple?

Many temples do have windows in them, but they are draped. There are some temples that don't, but temples are a place of deep self reflection and reverence. They are a place where one can get away from worldly distractions and contemplate life and ones trials and challenges. It's a place to pray to God for family and friends, and work on ones spirituality.

If there were windows all over it would detract from those intentions and remind those within exactly what they are trying to get away from...

The Ten Commandments are found in the Book of Exodus in the Old Testament of the Bible.

Why do Mormons ride bikes?

Mormon missionaries, when they are serving on their mission, need something to get around in. Thus came the answer in the form of a bicycle. Bicycles are easy to get from one place to another and are frequently used because they are far less expensive than cars. Mormon missionaries aren't always on bikes though: they switch off, kinda like taking turns, with some driving one of the avaiable cars and the others on bikes.

Do Mormons smoke weed?

Never. We are forbidden to use drugs by the word of wisdom.

The above is not true.

The word of wisdom is not a commandment, marijuana is NOT harmful to your body and the word of wisdom is a revelation given to guide members to be healthy.

The only reason that marijuana is against the teachings of the church is that it is not legal everywhere and we believe in keeping the laws of the land.... but then again so is speeding.

How many recommends do you think have been pulled because of people eating too many cheeseburgers? Eating fast food does harm to your body and mind, marijuana does not.

Study out D&C 89, pray and receive revelation on what you should do.

How long did it take for Mormons to trvel from Nauvoo to Salt Lake City Utah?

The first wagon train took over 1 year and 5 months. The first wagon train left Nauvoo, Illinois in Feb. of 1846. They crossed Iowa and camped for the winter at a place they called Winter Quarter, Neb., which is near Omaha, Neb. In the spring of 1847 the first wagons departed Winter Quarter for the west (April 14,1847) and arrived in Salt Lake City, Utah, on June 24, 1847 (that portion took over 3 months). The original distance traveled was 1,300 miles. After the first wagon train, others followed for the next 20 years and the time became much quicker. By 1857 handcart companies crossed the plains in about 3 1/2 months. Those traveling individually on horsback or in light buggies could make the journey in just a few weeks.

Where is the best Non Mormon community to reside in Salt Lake City Utah?

If by non-Mormon you mean most liberal and containing the most diverse people, I'd suggest Sugarhouse. However, anywhere north of 5000 south in Salt Lake County would have the lowest percentage of LDS church members.

Mormons tend to stick to the south end of the Salt Lake Valley and Utah county in the newer developments, which are more conservative and family-oriented. There will, however, probably be several LDS members in your neighborhood, no matter where you live.
