Oh God... Being a non-mormon from Utah, and having just read Lord of the Rings for the first time recently, Minas Mormon fucking kills me.

That is actually the Jordan River mormon Temple in Utah but everyone of them could be posted in this community

Not everyone knows where South Jordan is, so I used SLC as a reference point.

Pls forgive.

That's more of a Catholic thing. The Mormon church doesn't have altar boys the same way that the Catholic church does.

Also, as a rule children aren't allowed in the temples, it's mostly teenagers andadults.

Lastly, and this is pure speculation on my part, the leadership of the Mormons are allowed to get married and have kids. I think that generally reduces pent up sexual urges with no outlet.

Probably close to 0. The temple is not a very convenient place to get away with it (except for maybe the baptimal font changing rooms). It is far more common in the bishops office of normal church-buildings, in the home of local church leaders when the children are asked to visit, or in the home of the child when a local leader comes around for a lesson/visit.

There are still polygamous mormon sects and families - even within Utah (though it's LDS policy to excommunicate them).

The practice officially stopped in 1890 because it was going to prevent Utah from being admitted into the Union, and according to the main-line church "the standard doctrine of the church is monogamy". It's religion though, so there's no shortage of adherents to the old ways.

The current prophet, and 2nd in line, are both married for eternity to two women each. Mormons still believe in polygamy.
