From your video link: Ravi Zacharias answers an audience question - Is Mormonism a cult? Azcharias proceeds to give the classic definition of what cult means and then moves to talking about the idea of choosing to vote for someone based on their religion. He conveys that in politics when faced with choosing a leader, pick the one who will give the nation the best moral soil to look for Christ. He cautions that we should use the term “cult” wisely, mindful that with “Jim Jones, etc” it comes with baggage and loosely used in public it says more than what is intended.
I do not think Obama is the man that Ravi Zacharias will vote for in November.
Well said.
Yes, thank you, I should have given a synopsis of it, but I was hoping that people would take the time to watch it first-hand for themselves; as you probably read on that thread, few did.
This is the answer to the dilemma many people have, and race has nothing to do with it, nor politics,nor “religion”—it has to do with morality and choosing the one who will “help a nation provide the best moral soil on which the freedom to believe and disbelieve can actually function”...
He goes on to say that if it is an immoral soil, truth is evicted, and there is no opportunity of having a voice in the market place, in the public arena, in politics, in business—all places where the Chrisitian faith ought to have a voice.
We must look deep into our souls to see if Mormons are a cult.....But don’t talk about that bunch that still practices slavery, female sexual mutilation and every air hostage event of the last 40 years. That is a religion of peace!
