Do you claim Harry Reid as one of you? He is one who claims the LDS.
Well, I am baffled, how does your question have anything to do with what I wrote in the post you are referencing.
I claim Harry Reid as nothing. He doesn’t just claim to be lds, he is lds and he is temple worthy, one of the only 15% or so who are allowed in their temple areas.
If you are asking if I am lds - NO NO and NO
SVCW isn’t LDS, however Reid is a faithful, temple attending (not same a church - it is for special services to the most faitful members and only about 15% can enter), true believing, ‘worthy’, Mormon. He served an LDS mission and IIRC was a Bishop (Pastor).
A few years ago, he spoke at BYU, got a standing ovation and stated clearly that he was a democrat BECAUSE, not in spite of, his Mormon faith. Remember that the Republican party was founded partially to combat polygamy in Mormonism, and Mormons were very staunch democrats in general clear up until the 1950’s and 60’s and many still are.
