"But my understanding of what makes a Christian has to do with Jesus Christ and belief in his saving grace."

Mormons don't believe in salvation through grace. They attach a lot of other "riders" to the contract and believe that only once they reach judgement that they will have done enough (temple recommends, tithing, works, callings, etc.) for christ to apply his grace to cover whatever "balance" they have remaining.

Why should I listen to the resentful haters here tell me "what Mormons believe" when I have talked to many directly? What gives you leave to speak for Mormons? Why should I credit your characterizations? The tone and attitude of these posters shows me an irrational animosity more than anything Christian.

I've listened to Beck since he started with Fox. He has mentioned Jesus Christ in a way highly daring for cable TV. He has reminded America many times that we will be held accountable for not helping Israel.
