Mormon just reminds me of Moron. Think about it... just remove the second M.
Anyways, the Bishop is like the leader of a particular ward of the church. The leader of the whole religion is the Prophet, who's name is Thomas S. Monson. (hopefully I spelled it right...)
I remember when the previous Prophet, Gordon B. Hinkley... well... died. It was weird... I felt distant from reality. I wasn't really sad, I was just shocked...
