“”Do you have any problems with mormonISM? “””

I didn’t make up the word, ask the poster who did.

I have a problem with ALL religions in some ways. They all contain people that have done bad stuff. I’m not worried about mitt the mormon plotting to take over the world due to his religion. I’m more worried about his liberalISM.

“I’m more worried about his liberalISM.”

What if his brand of liberalism is based on his Mormonism? They as a religion are taught to dissimulate as a protective mechanism (because Joseph Smith was a fortune telling grifter). What if Mormonism causes Mitt to flip-flop? There are many reasons you can’t separate his religion from his politics.

But you are not talking about the 'religions'; but the PEOPLE in them.

What are some of your 'ways'?

Well, this statement here shows that you really don't know Christianity...or at least the Christ of Christianity.

Jesus levels the playing field before the cross by undercutting any spiritual pride that presumes anybody from any religion doesn’t need Him as our great physician ("It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick...For I have NOT COME to call the righteous, but sinners."--Matthew 9:12)

Our very sin qualifies us for reception of the cross and its substitutionary effect -- Jesus is for the person who understands their personal cancerous diagnosis of sin.

As you hinted in your previous post, we're all spiritually unhealthy and depraved -- including your "good"…
…Mormons
…Christians
…Hindus
…Muslims
…other religions.

Those born from above have been given a life goal other than having to do good works to try to convince God they're somebody else.

Mormons don't recognize that. And too many "cultural Christians" who have jettisoned their faith oft' fall into that same trap.
