Huh? How so? Mormons are the antithesis of Muslims. If it is any religion that is the closest or exceeds that of the Muslims inability to integrate/assimilate, it is those that worship at the alter of the Synagogue of Satan.

Ha! There are nut jobs in every religion.
These Mormon Fundamentalists Butchered Their Sister-In-Law And Infant Niece — Because God 'Told' Them To
The Lafferty brothers sliced their sister-in-law and baby niece's throats so deeply that their heads were barely attached to their bodies when police discovered them.
The Infamous Story of Mark Hofmann, the Salamander Letter, and the SLC Bombings
I recently acquired a dollar bill with the words "white salamander letter" written on it. Here's the juicy bit of Latter-day Saint history it refers to.

And Jasmine Crockett will be their queen.
Mormons are pretty insular. So are the Amish. While brain searching for a comparable comparison to a closed off religious town, that was the group that came to mind.
Why isn't someone building Catholicville or Protestanttown? The closest thing I remember recently was some group trying to build a black homeland in Georgia. I think that was a grifter taking advantage of black nationalists. AFAIK, no actual homes have ever been built.

I would say that's a pretty bigoted thing to say. I've driven past many a Mormon church and seen their 'all are welcome signs', as well as many other churches of different denominations that do so. In fact the Mormons send out missionaries to spread the word, as was done in times past with the Catholic and other churches.
"Why isn't someone building Catholicville or Protestanttown?" Why would they? There's a church, multiples of each, in every town. Do your refer to Salt Lake City Utah as being a "closed off religious town"? Vatican City encompasses a vast area. Neither of which are "closed off". Both are open to the public and are accepting of all.
You want to see a closed off religion? Just look to any Synagogue. They are truly insular, cultural and tribal in their views regarding the acceptance others not like themselves.

South Carolina has some very closed off areas, of course nothing official, but if you aren't part of the preferred church in some areas you are run off by other means.

Lots of people did that over the 19th and 20th century. They don't end up staying that way for long.

That is well known to be an exercise in futility. Of course, those individuals aren't Christ like at all.

Yeah yeah. We know we know. Also the seat of the 'Holy See'. My points still stand.
And as it's a sovereign independent country that produces nothing, is also one of the world's largest grift organizations in the world.

Produced, as in an agricultural or manufactured product.
You mean those Catholic NGO's that profited greatly and subverted the will of the people of this Nation to provide aide and assistance to illegal aliens that have flooded our Nation?
Not bitter at all. Just acknowledging reality.
