Restating my previous post another way (from the mainstream, mass media repeated viewpoint):
Mormons don't want to be deceived by reality, because they mistakingly think it's wonderful and fundamentally enjoy life - but they're stupid and kinda bad because they disagree with us.
Non-Mormons want to be deceived, distracted, entertained, and primarily seek short-term pleasures because they know the truth about reality is really meaningless and everything that seems good is false, and hopefully stupid religious people wake up soon and realize it.
Now, it seems the logical think for a non-religious nihilistic/atheist person to do would be to join anyway in order to participate in the obviously superior benefits to individual and group.
So why don't they, en mass? Well obviously - because they can't. First, they've convinced themselves (have their heads so far up their backsides) that what is obviously good is bad. Secondly, they can't participate in the benefits unless they honestly believe it is true. It's not like a consumer product where one can just buy the options one wants, it must either be genuinely lived or not at all.
