“JS & BY may have been a little unorthodox but at least they didn’t proselytize class hate, racism, treason and bigotry like KM & JW.”

Well....let’s have a look at that list:

Class hate: Wherever the Mormons went, they established their presence, froze out other businesses, silenced any opposition press (see how JS died), and regarded all non-Mormons as apostates from the `true faith’ of JS.

Racism: Blacks ineligible for the “Melchezidek priesthood” until 1978 when this changed due to Federal pressure.

Treason: The Utah Territory was set up as the Deseret empire and Federal troops were held at bay until the Mormons began eyeing the advantages of statehood.

Bigotry: Directed against Christian non-Mormons aka “gentiles” to this very day. Catholics are especially condemned as adherents of “the great and abominable church”.

Catholics are especially condemned as adherents of “the great and abominable church”.

They call it the "whore of Babylon".

The Catholic church, rightfully, calls mormonism a cult.

All faiths had and still have odd dogmas many can find politically incorrect—kind of like judging the conservative politician Rick Santorum on the few instances where he was wrong while ignoring the many instances when he was right—and we can expect Obama, oh, and those like you too now, I suppose, to concentrate on the negatives of Obama’s opponent.

So you are a big fan of Karl Marx and Jeremiah Wright then?
