The Roma spirit, free and strong, In every heartbeat, in every song.
Through fields and forests, roads unplanned, They roam the world, a nomad band. Beautiful women, heroic men, In the Roma, life’s magic begins again.
"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep." (John 10:10-11)

They are white of course, they are slavs yes, but i said generally the balkan region looks more western asian and caucasus shifted then northwestern europe where mormons are from if you want to compare the two i said generally. including serbs and many croats, greeks, albanians, bulgarians. sometimes balkan and caucasus is grouped into a similar phenotypical range by anthropologists. I mean white nationalists are idiots and say you are a troll if you say such things because they think you are divisive and anti-white but i just say how i see it. Look at the pictures, i saw them in real life and i know what they look but of course they are white.

Mortimer mentioned looks and insisted Utah Mormons look more European than Balkan Muslims. I think they look more Northern, not more European generally speaking. But this is supposed to be about culture and civilization, not looks. I also was mistaken to bring up something like honor killings, since that is rare in the Balkans I think and is generally more representative of extremist minority among Muslims and not all or even not most Muslims. But leaving aside honor killings, Balkan Muslims are still the more exotic because they have customs like the month long Ramadan fasting when they don't drink or eat anything from sunrise to sunset, wearing of hijab for many women, they have a real cult for Muhammed who can't even be drawn as we know, don't usually drink alcohol because Islam forbids it(as does Mormonism), may have more than one wife, go on pilgrimage to Mecca, have their baby sons circumcised( I know this is typical for most Americans too, but not for Europeans) and I think are much more likely to fall into religious fanaticism than are Christians. It should also be remembered that Muslim empires like the Ottoman Empire and the Moors were traditional enemies of Christian Europe. Some of you will say that this religious stuff should not be made to seem so important anymore, now that Europe and America are increasingly irreligious and more so with passing decade, but Christianity is one of the main 'ingredients' of European civilization and it would not be the same without this influence.

Ok but generally in a american context for example a mormon is more the epitome of a "redneck" a balkan is a little bit "ethniikid" i think that does play a bit a role or could but ok. That is such a impression you have. I dont know how its in europe and mormons are very rare in europe. I never met a mormon but i know there are missionaries and such here too.
