I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Mormons are about as Christian, as Christians are Jewish.

Mormonism is closer to Islam

If the American public could actually see what was driving Bishop Romney, it would scare the living daylights out of them.

Mormons and Muslims stand in about the same relationship to the Judeo-Christian heritage. Both attempt to expropriate mojo through an ancient pre-Christian ancestral relationship to the Jewish Patriarchs (Muslims by trying to insert themselves in the Abrahamic lineage through Ishmael. Mormons by trying to do the same through the "lost tribes") by which they claim to have divine authority to restore "the truth" in opposition to the corruption they claim was caused by ensuing organized Jewish and Christian religion.

According to the Apostle Paul, both Christian and Jewish believers in the Messiah (and more broadly, those who believe God as Abraham believed him) are co-heirs of the promise God made to Abraham and fulfilled through the faithfulness (dikaiosyne) of the Messiah, Jesus. There was always a single plan for the world that God had through the promises he made to Abraham. This is why Abraham is called the father of faith to both the circumcised and the uncircumcised.

Yes, that’s a better comparison. Christianity and Judaism are related, and have oftentimes been antagonistic, but Christians acknowledge the author of Judaism as their own God, and the basis of their religion as a valid worship instituted by God. You can’t say the same for how Mormons view Christianity.

yes, Mormonism is closer to Islam, yet you could argue that islam itself is closer to Christianity than Mormonism is -- on the basis of monotheism.

I don't believe Mormonism was founded by a demon, rather by a smart con-man. Islam, with Mo's seizures and possessions is clearly demonic influenced...
