A person’s eternal soul is a very important thing.

Indeed, but this wasn't a revival meeting or a church service designed to tell the doctrinal truth to people. The purpose of Beck's meeting was to bring together people who believe that America was founded on Judeo-Christian values. There are many variances in doctrine among that group, but they do share that one thing in common.

Ahhhh, but let’s look at where Mormonism and Christianity differ, that is really more useful:

-Mormons believe that you can become your own god, Christians believe in one God.
-Mormons believe you can convert after death, Christians don’t
-Mormons deny the Trinity, Christians embrace that truth.
-Mormons believe that Jesus and Satan are spiritual brothers, Christians, well don’t
-Mormons believe the Holy Spirit had sexual relations with Mary. Christians don’t.

The above are not a couple of minor difference, but more akin to the difference between say, Pelosi and Palin.
