many Catholics don’t know their own faith.

I know my faith very well. I have read the Old & New Testaments, cover to cover several times throughout my life. As an adult, I have read the Catechism of the church, as well as many of the works of Augustine and Aquinas. My faith teaches me to avoid bigotry. This email is bigotry.

What do you know of Mormonism. How can you judge that this letter is not telling you truth. Does the Catholic Church tell you if you should judge a particular denomination as following the same God of Christianity?

Are you to overlook such things as multiple Gods, pre-existence, that Mormons look at you as a fallen Church?

These things are true and evident. Are you supposed to overlook them in an effort to avoid bigotry? Would you overlook the claims of the abortion rights groups so as not to appear bigoted?

Perhaps you should take some time to educate yourself regarding Mormonism and why it is that the Pope doesn't recognize them as a Christian Church.

Thank you. And I don’t think that the Catholic Church would support it one bit. It has far more class than the bigots of the religious right.
