“There is no perspective on what system is Christian in this instance, the facts are readily available.”
why are their so many different denominations of Protestantism, if it doesn’t have to do with their different perspectives on various aspects of Christianity?

As an old pro-Romney/Mormonism poster here of many years, you should already know that many of our Mormon experts are ex-Mormon themselves, and that as far as being anti-Romney, well, freerepublic is anti-Romney, we are conservatives.
By now you should also know that all of the Christian churches agree that Mormonism is not Christian.

I said that Romney is expected to rise to the level of Cardinal, and that it is possible that he could rise to the level of Prophet.
You dismiss Romney ever being promoted again?

Is it “religious bigotry” if we don’t want a Muslim to be president? A religion is a powerfully defining factor in what someone’s world view, beliefs, temperament, ethics, values and personality is. It also defines what kind of people and groups will have influence on that person. To say that it’s “religious bigotry” to consider someone’s religion a factor when choosing whether or not to vote for them is totally uncalled for. I don’t know a whole lot about the Mormon religion, but I feel I would be obligated to learn a whole lot more about it before voting someone from its ranks into the presidency. It would be a dereliction of duty by a web site or media outlet to not report on the faith and try to educate people on it as much as possible when someone from it is this close to the presidency.

You’re presenting a false dichotomy, and I don’t respond to those. That having been said, I fully expect you to do your due diligence in making that type of decision. That’s not the bigotry (what a ridiculous notion). And you should vote your conscience, it’s your civic duty. Now, go peruse some of the moronic jpegs and technicolor theo-babble, and you can get all the bigotry you’re willing to stand. They’re on many a thread.

there are plenty of folks here claiming to be Christian who have plenty to say in judgment about mormon beliefs and practices versus their perspective on who is Christian and who is not. There sure are!
And they tend to go to an LDS 'church'!

Actually most people have learned to ignore your cut and paste, Ted Turneresque posts.Oh, don't I know it!
I don't know WHY, when MORMONs are confronted with their own chosen religious organizations very own writings; they just IGNORE them?
Do you have an explanation?

the mormons call these folks apostles,While I call the FALSE 'apostles' and mere YESMEN.
No where in the BIBLE is it recorded that there was EVER needed ANYONE to vet what a TRUE prophet had said!

No accepting of the statements?
Just running away from the battle?

Youre presenting a false dichotomy, and I dont respond to those.OR to the TRUE dichotomys, either!
You have learned quite well the 'ignore what was presented to you and use it as a springboard for you OWN thoughts' quite well.

Now, go peruse some of the moronic jpegs and technicolor theo-babble... Did you mean MORMONic?
Or perhaps DEmonic?
Whatever... since you've ASKED for it...
KJV
Galatians 1:6-9
6. I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7. Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
ANYBODY???
Like this fine looking fellow???
2 Corinthians 11:12-15
12. But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
13. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
Like THESE guys??
17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the otherThis is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!
Ephesians 2:1-2
1. And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
