Why bring religion into it? Whatever you might think of the Mormons, they are honest and productive, and don’t go around shouting “jihad” every second. You wanna pick on an idiot religion, try Islam - who’s principal prophet would be jailed for child molestation were he to be in this country.

Mohammad was a trader -- the only big religion 'founder' that was very much concerned with economic issues (Moses was a basically an Egyptian prince, Sidharta too, was a prince, and Jesus was a carpenter). So, some of Islamic economic teachings are related to market. Now, if one day there's a fierce pro-market candidate, but happens to be a Muslim, will conservatives support him? How about a gay candidate, like Guido Westerwelle from Germany?

Exactly, Islam is a threat to everything this country was founded upon....like religious freedom.... NOT so with Mormons.

No more so than...

Baptists,
Catholics, Wesleyans,
Jehovah Witnesses,
Presbyterians (no matter WHAT Joseph Smith had written!),
Anglicans,
Methodists,
Congregationalists,
Nazarenes...
