This short article reports the results of a survey of Mormon attitudes concerning pre-and extra-marital sex, contraception, marriage with a non-Mormon, swearing, watching movies or TV on Sunday, and smoking. It compares attitudes in Salt Lake City with those of Mormons in a northern California city, and breaks responses down into five age groups.
