"Are Mormons Christian-Part 1"
Uhhhh, while I'm not a Romney fan I am a Mormon and there is NOTHING different about a Mormon's view of the country, it's values and ideals that wouldn't be held by any other Christian. The suggestion that this is the case is ugly, mean, and ignorant. Mormons are among the most conservative and patriotic people you'll find, certainly more so than Obama and his hate America preacher Rev. Wright. I resent the implication that somehow Mormons are somehow unamerican or dangerous.
This writer is clearly peddling an inaccurate and bigoted view of the LDS faith, esp. in his claim the Mormon religion isn't in harmony with Biblical teachings of Christianity. There isn't anything in the LDS religion that cannot be justified by the Bible. And he says Romney dare not give a speech outlining what Mormons believe because Americans will blanche? Sorry fella, but 10s of thousands of young Mormon missionaries go out every year into the US and the rest of the world to share what the church believes and 100s of thousands of people each year here that message and accept it--I was one of them. There is nothing bizarre in the LDS faith. Indeed it can all be found in the Bible.
Oppose Romney on his policies and his prior governorship. I'll join you. But on the basis this writer sputters forth, it's just stupid and frankly unamerican. This kind of fearmongering based on one's private religious views has no place in American politics. It is more suited to the Third Reich. The writer, whomever he is, ought to be ashamed of himself.
Anti-Mormon religious bigots of FR? Perish the thought !!
"Are Mormons Christian-Part 1"
Huh?
Biblical Jesus is Eternal, lds jesus is created.
Biblical Jesus is sufficient for Salvation, lds jesus needs help IE after all we can do
I would say those are differently differences, and there is no way mormonISM teachings can justify these differences without Joseph Smith's rewriting of the Bible..

No dear it cannot
dead dunking, polygamy, atonement in the Garden of Eden, Eve a heroine, pre-mortal existance, God was once a man, God had a father and mother, the church got lost and needing “restoring” and so on
None of that is in the Bible
Joey Smith and his cohorts just made it all up...
10s of thousands of young Mormon missionaries go out every year into the US and the rest of the world to share what the church believes

Actually they dont... they leave a lot out... mostly stuff they are never told..
and they also tell Christians that their belief in the LORD Jesus Christ and Christianity and the Bible are wrong..
I know ...Ive heard them...they use to harass me once or twice a month...
That's a cool way to call them UNpatriotic!
--MormonDude(NOW let's see 'em DEFEND themselves!)
ALL: One wishes when MissesBush shares her religious convictions, that they might remain "private" as well. But of course, she's one of the most two-faced posters on FR.
When she tries to defend Romney's religious convictions, she references them as "private." But when she speaks out on her own religious convictions, those, of course, go "public."
So she stretches "religious views" whichever way the gumby goes; if it's better to publicly vocal about them, she's a one-way outbound street. If she's trying to impress y'all about how somebody's religious beliefs are being picked on, she claims this 52,000-missionary religion Lives on "Private" Boulevard.
Beware of posters with two faces.
