If there is one thing I learned on my mission, it's that when you bring the Church to a nation/city where the Church has never existed before, approximately 100% of the converts have either severe mental illness or ulterior motives. We had people bearing their testimonies about their suicide attempts every single Sunday. It was scary.

Incidentally, my first Mormon ancestor joined the Church in 1830, because his girlfriend wouldn't marry him unless he converted.
