Mormons are not alone as Non-Trinitarians. In fact, Trinitarianism was agreed upon by the Council of Nicea with the encouragement of the Emperor Constantine in an attempt to unify Chirstian thought.

Even among the originalist Catholics, there has been a considerable amount of change in what the mainstream subscribed to at the time. In Joan of Arc's time, burning witches or heretics, for instance, was considered mainstream Christianity.

While there may be, in some dark corners of Christianity, extremists who still subscribe to such once-mainstream views, most of us have moved on and are happy to welcome into the fold of Christ those who may not entirely share current mainstream views.

I, for one, tire of the self-appointed Christian Taliban who feel that they should decide who does and who doesn't belong among Christians.

I have lived among Mormon majorities at various times in my life and would have to observe that while life there may be a bit dull for some tastes (few bars, night clubs and whorehouses), they are generally pleasant and tolerant places to live. Unlike areas where followers of the Church of Godlessness are a clear majority.

Accordingly, I'm far less concerned about a candidate's particular brand of religion than I am about their character and respect for the constitution. I suspect a vast majority of conservatives feel the same. I also suspect the most vocal Mormon haters might actually gin up sympathy votes for Mitt Romney that he would otherwise not get.

I disagree with mormonism and believe that it is a cult. I believe that those under the influence of mormonism are held in darkness. But that does not make me a mormon hater. On the other hand, I think that anyone it is legitimate to question the judgment of someone who is in this thing.

“Mormons are not alone as Non-Trinitarians.”

You are of course, right. Mormons are joined in their heresy by a whole collection of assorted cults and heresy believing religions...

Unfortunately, the fact that they Blaspheme God’s nature is only one (admittedly large) problem with their claim to be a Christian faith.

For instance...

Biblical Christianity is monotheistic - it teaches there is ONE God.

Mormonism is Polytheisitc - it teaches there are many gods.

best,
ampu
