1) Abstinence only sex education promoted by Mormon church. With no knowledge people make uninformed decisions.
2) Religious guilt. People don't carry condoms because they feel guilt if they are "prepared" for sex.
Religion poisons everything.
Because I'm certain those are the top 2 reasons, even though Mormon's have been in Utah since 1848 and preached abstinence only since 1916. Ignoring the fact they do have specific teaching on sexuality and have accepted non-abstinence methods since 1942. If there was a Mormon here, I'm sure they'd be using those same statistics to vilify the dirty and diseased heathens for spreading their sin to the population. How is that treating the religious with jumping to conclusions, judgment and stupidity as a quid pro quo working for your anti-theistic agenda?
The fact remains that Mormons ARE preaching abstinence only right now for unmarried people. To be fair, they do permit birth control between married couples.
