Myth busting:

“Otterson identified for the journalists what he considered the five most common stereotypes of members of the LDS Church — that they are not Christian, that they belong to a cult, that they are insular and secretive, that they are weird and that they practice polygamy.”

OK, so I’m weird, but that other stuff - not so much.

Myth (romney) busting:

Clarified

they are not Christian

They are not -
"This is not just another Church. This is not just one of a family of Christian churches. This is the Church and kingdom of God, the only true Church upon the face of the earth..."
- Prophet Ezra Taft Benson, Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, p. 164-165

that they belong to a cult

Yes, they deny every essential doctrine of Christianity and meet social criteria for a cult as well as religious criteria.

that they are insular and secretive,

Are all your temples now open to the non-recommend public as well as your 'secret/sacred' ceremonies including the little creation film/play?

that they practice polygamy

Hmmmmm D&C Section 132 is still mormon scripture and orthodox mormons practice it.

I agree with the statement except where I made a change: LDS Church — that they are not Christian, that they belong to a cult, that they are insular and secretive, that they are weird strange and that they practice polygamy.”

[reaganaut]

Mormons are everything you claim they are not - except the polygamy and I know many LDS who look forward to that coming back.

[Elsie]

...and that they practice polygamy.”

OR ELSE!! according to Brigham Young!!

Sounds like 12 or 14 MILLION mormons are in BIG trouble!
