Of course this is right. I don’t share Mr. Jeffress’ opinion of the Catholic Church, and it is distressing that a supposed Catholic intellectual could be so oblivious to the radical differences between the Church of Latter Day Saints and Catholic doctrine, which are even greater(although Mr.Jeffress would not agree on this). than those between the Mormons and Southern Baptists. The Mormons are not friends to Catholics, athough they are quite peaceable American citizens, and our allies==to a degree—in the cultural wars. But good fences make good neighbors.

I was surprised by that as well.

Well said.

I think we have done ourselves a disservice by so quickly assuming it's bigoted to not support someone of a radically different faith.
