The number — 53% —Muslims and Mormons: Faiths view each other positively

The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press and the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life finds that overall evaluations of Mormons and Muslim Americans are on balance positive — 53 percent say they have a favorable opinion of Mormons, while an identical percentage views Muslim Americans favorably. However, most Americans say they know little or nothing about either religion's practices, and most believe that their own religion has little in common with either Islam or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
