Why Mormons Are Happy

http://www.mormon.org

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints...

...are happy because we...

serve each other - this helps one develop compassion and selflessness while providing comfort and support to the receiver.

follow the Word of Wisdom - a code of health wherein abstaining from tea, coffee, alcohol and smoking encourages physical health and longevity.

focus on family - emphasizing the core unit of society creates lasting bonds of affection and a proper perspective of what is most important in life.

pay tithing - giving ten percent of ones increase for the Lords work gives more people the opportunity to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ and participate in the Lords Church.

donate money - offering charitable donations benefits those who are less fortunate and the willingness to donate to the poor is indicative of individuals who deal prudently with their finances, regardless of social status.

emphasize education - learning breeds confidence and increases ones ability to have a successful and stable career.

stress morality and goodness - a wholesome lifestyle brings about freedom and independence, increases ones self-esteem, improves relationships, protects individuals from unnecessary pain and sadness, and enhances life in innumerable ways.

You didn't mention anything about being saved... shouldn't the only reason to be happy be that your life is in the hands of Jesus Christ?

@valgal161 Of course. That's why I concluded the video with the following: Why do Mormons do these things?

@TsarIvanIV "Drinking tea "

causes over anxiety, high blood pressure, stenosis, restenosis, kidney stones, harding of the vessels, and calcification.

There are so many better things to drink. That is why Mormons live longer.

I imagine it's also because unhappy Mormons either kill themselves or leave the church pretty quickly.

@jayhawk88z The good news is the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. That makes our depression lighter, our days meaningful, our families forever.

Romans 14:2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs. 3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
