Well, it is this authors opinion that Mormon's are all crocks who have been brainwashed by a faith that is corporate and corrupt. Ethnography: this article looks at the work and mindset of two missionaries and is actually quite convincing that Mormons, and their religion, promote self-sacrifice for the common good. Still, this faith seems shrouded in mystery and looks, from the outside, to be filled with holes of corruption.
Thesis: Mormons are good sheep, blindly sacrificing their humanity in an attempt to connect with the Divine presence.
Topic 1:
Hierarchy of the Mormon church is nothing out of the ordinary, per say. However, it does seem that the highest position in the Church is Jesus Christ, I'm not sure if this is the leaders title or if they're referring to God's son.
Topic 2:
The Church's monetary past and why it was accused of fraud and what kind of price members must pay for being members of the Church of Latter Day Saints.
Topic 3:
Joining, leaving and practices within the Church. Why they have such strange requirements for their members and how they enforce these.
Conclusion:
From possible multiple interviews, I'll have explored the strange practices of this religion and why they believe with such devotion and conviction.

I like that you really had an opinion on the topic but I think you're going to need really strong evidence to support your opinion since it is going against something that people feel strongly on
Your chosen ethnographic article is a nice one!
