“I do think that Mormons are Christians”

Then you either have never read the Holy Bible or your do not believe it. I don’t say this to condemn, just to understand.

I have read the Bible. I guess I just don’t interpret the Bible the same way that everyone else does 100% on each and every verse. Usually when someone declares that my interpretation of the Bible is wrong I end up supposing they believe that God gave them some special authority to interpret the Bible the “correct” way as if they have some sort of “divine right”. Why bother with the Constitution and freedom of religion if we have someone who has been endowed from God with the “divine right” to rule over us all as an absolute monarch since God told them the correct interpretation and left the rest of us as serfs in comparison to these almighty majesties with “divine right” to interpret the Bible?
