I did say “primary reason” and “typically doesn’t”. I didn’t say that it had no impact.
I might add, however, that Mormon doctrine isn’t the only thing being taught today that could endanger one’s soul. I do not relegate “doctrinal differences” to some minor but religiously acceptable catalog of curiosities. Perhaps you do. I do not. I think that the doctrinal diversity of our day and time is a travesty. Yet, wisdom seem to necessitate that I make some choice politically in these degenerate times.
My first and second choices at this point are Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich. Both are Roman Catholics. I think that Roman Catholicism contains grievous errors. I have spoken against, written against, and taught college classes against these errors. (The same holds true for my opposition to Mormonism.) Yet I believe that Rick and/or Newt, by God’s grace in using imperfect vessels, might help lead our country away from the abyss.
Imperfect choices. Wisdom required. I choose as wisely as I can.
And you can save your vitriol for someone else. I suspect that I have opposed the teachings of Mormonism far more than you have ever dreamed of, and will continue to do so. Real life consists of more than sitting safely behind your computer screen condemning others.

You summed up the anti-Mormon threads nicely there. Much appreciated.

I seriously doubt that since both Colo and I have been in ministry to Mormons and other cults for a long time (almost 2 decades for me). Before that I was a Mormon for many years and am grateful God saved me and saved me from that demonic cult (and it is demonic).
It goes far beyond the computer as well.
My Christian faith and conservative principles will not allow me to ever vote for a Mormon.
(Said as you sit safely behind your computer screen condemning me...interesting self-refutation there!)
