[Dr. Sivana]

Mormonism is anti-Catholic.

I know, and Missouri Synod Lutheranism is also anti-Catholic. And of course, we Catholics are anti-Lutheranism and anti-Mormonism.

That doesn't mean that when Sen. Orrin Hatch introduces the Hatch Amendment ("The Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment applies to programs that get their funding from the United States Department of Education. The PPRA was written to protect the rights of parents and students in two specific ways.") that Catholics shouldn't support him on the issue, and when Rep. Henry Hyde introduces the Hyde Amendment ("Restrictions on Fed funding for abortion") that Mormons shouldn't support him on the issue.

I have had Mormons come to the door and let them know my issues with their religion. I am grateful that NON-Romney type Mormons were an important part of the coalition that had defeated pervert-definition of marriage in California.

Mormon mishies tried to convert me back in 1970 when I was on my way to Vietnam after Army flight school.

They told me that Mormon garmies would protect me in a postcrash fire better than our Nomex flight gear, but surviving a crash as a disembodied torso didn’t appeal to me.

The mishies tried to confiscate my beer & cigarettes but I said no. I now realize they would have consumed these products themselves.

If I have argued with mishies since then it is over the existence of mythical “Nephites” and “Lamanites”. Books in the BoM with names like “Mosiah”, “Alma”, “Ether”, and “Omni” are also good for snits-and-giggles.

Nowadays, their “Book of Abraham” is an instant banana peel. That `ancient Egyptian papyrus’ contains no revelations.
