The LDS church has a past, with some undesirably elements, just as many churches have had problems.

Also, there are big problems that come up because the LDS church doesn't have very much 'official' doctrine. Most of the things you can come across are ideas, or generally accepted, but usually not official teachings of the church.

Dunno, the Mormons I know are some of the kindest, happiest people I've ever met.
