To: Paragon Defender

Yes I read it. The author is judging Christianity based upon someone hurting his Mormon feelings. He is wrong.

There is a huge discrepancy between Mormonism and Christianity. Even the author and you should be able to admit it. Speaking about those differences is certainly Christlike - sometimes the manner we use isn’t.

I want to tell you, Paragon, that I recognize the morality of Mormons. They are very good at obedience. When someone suggests that Mormonism is not Christian, we are not suggesting that Mormons are not good, moral people. We are only suggesting that Mormonism teaches a different Christ than Christianity. I that so hard for Mormons to admit? If so, why?

Why would Mormons want to deceive people into thinking that Mormonism is just like any Christian Church?

Very well said.

The problem there days is that people have made the terms *Christian* and *moral* synonymous, and while they should be to the extent that all Christians SHOULD BE moral, not everyone who is moral is Christian.

It’s no insult to say a person is not a Christian when their beliefs don’t put them in that category. It’s merely an observation based on their stated belief system.
