text: But Mormons are facing internal issues, have to deal with retention rate drops in many locations, etc. In Chile, for example, they are shrinking. And if Salt Lake City can have a Catholic cathedral and parishes, I guess Rome can afford a Mormon temple (alongside Mosques, Synagogues, a Hindu temple and Protestant churches). As tourist and/or pilgrim sites, they are all practically non-existent (except for their own adherents).  Nothing can match the nearly 2,000 year old historical presence of some CC sites localizing early Roman Christianity. Anyway, St. Peter and Paul are meeting Joseph Smith in a new Roman setting! And all three claim they knew Jesus Christ.
