Utah statistical claims and charges

Utah statistical claims and charges

Pornography use in Utah

Plastic surgery in Utah

Summary: Some people claim that the large number of plastic surgeons in Utah is an indictment of Mormon superficiality or preoccupation with appearance.

Bankruptcy rate in Utah

Summary: Is it true that Utah has the highest personal bankruptcy rate in the United States? If so, what does this say about Latter-day Saint attitudes toward wealth and materialism?

Suicide rate among Latter-day Saints in Utah

Summary: Critics charge that the suicide rate in Utah is higher than the national average, and that this demonstrates that being a Latter-day Saint is psychologically unhealthy.

Use of antidepressants in Utah

Summary: Critics charge that the rate of antidepressant use is much higher among Mormons than the general population. They claim this is evidence that participation in the LDS Church is inordinately stressful due to pressure for Mormons to appear "perfect."

LDS population in Utah

Summary: Critics of the Church and misinformed members of the mainstream media sometimes claim that the number of Latter-day Saints in Utah has fallen. This belief led the producers of the anti-Mormon video Search for the Truth to claim that "within Utah, we are doing a fairly good job of combating Mormonism" and therefore "the Mormon Church is vulnerable" to anti-Mormon criticisms. But such authors are simply incorrect, according to figures from the U.S. Census and the LDS Church Almanac.
