He said he “probably” wasn’t a Christian. That’s not really a denial, it’s an expression of doubt.

I’ll admit that there are times when I have doubts about some people being Christian, even though it is not my place to decide, as I sometimes remind the Romney bashers who insist he can’t be a Christian.

I am not a Romney basher; he has his few good points. I know some truths about Mormon belief because my daughter was one for several years. They do not believe that Jesus is one of the Trinity. To them there is no Trinity. Jesus is a created being, the brother of Lucifer. The Father had physical sex with the Virgin Mary to create him. So note that the Father is not a Spirit.

There are also three heavens, and you can't go to the highest one unless you are a temple-worthy Mormon.

Their God is not the God of the Bible. Their Jesus is not his Son who declared himself the great I Am. Their heaven is not heaven as described by Jesus in the Gospels and in Revelation.

They use Christian terms but with different meanings.

They say Jesus died for our sins, but works are part of their salvation. My daughter said like the Father buys the bike, and we peddle it the last mile out of 100.

All of these are not tents of Christianity. Are some Mormons Christians? That is possible.

Is an unchurched Fred Thompson a Christian? That is possible, too. To me that is more possible than for Romney.

But I know only God can judge and separate the wheat from the chaff.
