Hi!  Just curious if anyone can tell me what the religious symbol for LDS is?  (aka: Catholics= cross, Jewish= Star Of David, BAC= Fish, ect). 
 
Thank you for your help.

Perhaps the angel Moroni blowing a trumpet? Wait...perhaps two guys in white shirts riding bicycles?

All kidding aside, more correctly the Catholic Church has the crucifix (with Jesus) and Protestant churches have the cross (empty).

I would think either Moroni blowing the trumpet, or CTR.  I see more CTR jewelry and bumper stickers.  CTR stands for Choose the Right.

The LDS church has no "official" symbol.

The majority of temples do have the Angel Moroni - there are exceptions, one of which is the Mesa temple.

CTR, as mentioned, stands for Choose The Right. There are rings and necklaces, and such. Primary children (3-11) regularly receive cheap CTR rings at church, but this depends on whether their congregation purchases them for the kids.

Our churches have a plain (although beautiful) steeple. I do not know if this is true of all buildings around the world, but it is here.

As a member of the LDS faith, I do not think of a specific symbol that represents our church. I do not own any CTR jewerly. I do not have a angel Moroni at my house (most don't). I have some artwork of Christ, and a snapshot of the Mesa temple in my living room.
