Don’t be ridiculous. If Card opposes the acceptance of homosexuality, then I support him in that effort. If we were talking about supporting him in converting people to Mormonism, then I wouldn’t support him, unless he was converting godless leftwing nutbags, in which case, Mormonism is a damn sight better than leftwing nutbaggery. Your silly suggestion not to support Card in this is of a self-defeating nature that borders on trolling.

This kind of a conclusion has its priorities all backwards. What does it matter if some leftwing fellow becomes a Mormon and then promptly goes straight to hell where he was going before? The priority of Christianity isn’t on good-living or having right morality. The priority of Christianity is the Gospel, which is about what Christ did for us on the cross, and not on what we allegedly do for Him. Built on this proper foundation, morality naturally flows from it, and the country is better. But to setup a Mormon on high as some kind of a defender of American values —when really not too long ago their leaders were damning people to hell for not being polygamists, and they still currently teach obscenities, such as the idea that Christ is the product of sexual relations between “Elohim” and one of his goddess wives— instead of keeping well away from them, as we would any cult, whether it be the Scientologists or whoever else who also agree against homosexuality, is to compromise the Gospel, which is the only path of salvation, regardless of how pure you live your life.

While your view isn’t “trolling,” it is short sighted and lacks discernment.
