Mormonism as True

Disclaimer: I'm not a Mormon, and my analysis here is strictly from the apparent real-world benefits that Mormonism provides to its believers. I think Mormons would believe these are the blessings of God, for obeying his word and will.

Based on my previous "conclusion", I feel compelled to personally believe that Mormonism (or the Church of Jesus-Christ of Latter Day Saints) conforms to reality. My argument is strictly "top down" and ignores any "bottom up" approach and opinions on the historicity of the churches claims.

To elaborate: followers and believers of Mormonism have a quantitatively superior adaption to the challenges of modern life. That is especially evident to the relative behavior of other modern-adapted groups. So no matter how much one wants to attack the historicity Joseph Smith's translations and revelations, the political beliefs, or any other claim of Mormonism - somehow Mormonism is more real, more true than what most people believe (myself, most modern non-mormons).

This is a bold claim, but the evidence supporting this conclusion is overwhelming. It is, indeed, so strong, that given only 8 generations Mormons would be the largest ethnically European group in the world.

Obviously this sort of thing is extremely problematic to extrapolate into the future, but given current trends - in 8 generations:

For this simple calculation we will ignore converts, apostasy, and demographic mixing. We'll also take the US population and its trend as a while (ignoring the relative Mormon element).

The US will be majority hispanic
Europe (almost all countries) will be majority Muslim

The European-descended population of the US is currently the largest such grouping in the world. It currently reported at 197 million as of 2012, with a birth rate of 1.76. That is, as each generation passes it is negatively compounding by approximately 16%. In 8 generations there would be about 48 million whites in America.

The European-descend population of "Mormonism" is believed to be approximately 13.2 million, with a birthrate of 2.77. That means it is compounding by approximately 32% per generation. That means in 8 generations there would be about 121 million whites Mormons.

It is becoming an increasingly popular liberal view that the "death" or demographic shrinking of whites is a good thing. While I don't want to address why suicide, or encouraging suicidal behavior, is bad here - from a strictly evolutionary perspective, Mormonism is vastly superior to whatever most Americans believe.

It's so superior, that simply given current demographic trends, someday the only European-descended people left in America would be Mormons. What's interesting, is Mormonism has absolutely no doctrine explicit or otherwise in direct support of this specific effect. This trend is also in the face of widespread societal criticism of Mormonism - everywhere you look society is anti-Mormon (but also, anti-family, hence society-wide demographic suicide tendencies).

From a non-Mormon Christian perspective, and given the Old Testament definition of being blessed by God, one feels absolutely compelled to believe that Mormonism is indeed somehow true, that Mormons are indeed obeying the word of God, and that indeed they are blessed by God (apparently, far more than any other large religious denomination - most of which are committing demographic suicide faster than the widespread societal trends!)
