It's a cult
Concord Monitor ^ | October 28, 2011 | Barbara Elms

Posted on 10/29/2011 2:52:47 PM PDT by delacoert

I like Mitt Romney and believe he could be a fine president under different circumstances. As a born-again Christian, I cannot vote for him. As Dr. Robert Jeffress, pastor of a large Baptist church in Dallas, said, Mormonism is not just another denomination; it is a cult.

Jeffress is a fine man. I have watched him on television for many years, even though I am not a Baptist.

A few years ago, I purchased books, magazines and DVDs from Lamb and Lion Ministries. Two DVDs concerned cults. The largest and most well-known is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

The Jesus of the cults is not the Jesus of our Holy Bible. Their Jesus was conceived by God who once was a man and became God by being good. This god had sex with Mary so came Jesus. God has a wife, therefore, a Mother God and Father God. They had many other children. Jesus and Lucifer are brothers.

Mormons believe if they are good enough they can become a god, and have their own planet. The Mormon church never has a cross outside, or inside, because you don't honor a murder weapon. Our Jesus gave up His life and shed His blood on the cross so that we might be saved. They take communion with bread and water; they hate the blood. Mormons don't get to go into the big Temples very often. They mainly go to be baptized for people who died years ago so that they could go to heaven. Mormons must not drink coffee or tea, and be married for life to go into the big Temple. They have three Heavens.

It is not bigotry to call Mormonism a cult, Mormonism teaches another Jesus. Paul warned against this and is it just a coincident that it was an angel who revealed everything to JS? Did not Paul warn that ever if an angel came with a different Jesus not to believe them?

Because it's secret and the magic prevents it.

Duh.

I’m Jewish and I think all of Christianity is a cult. However, I can vote for people who identify themselves as Christians.

I’m a Catholic and I’d be very reluctant to vote for a Mormon president (they always show up at the door trying to “convert” Catholics - and in fact, in Catholic countries, they are told to lie about their beliefs so they seem like just some ordinary kind of Christian group inviting people to meetings).

That said, his biggest problem is that he is a raving statist. But I think that’s typical of Mormonism, which was conceived as a theocracy where Joseph Smith and Brigham Young and their successors would rule everything, and in fact it took the US Cavalry to make them back down. Utah was not allowed to join the Union until the Mormons agreed to accept American law, particularly regarding polygamy.

As long as the candidate shares my political/economic views it doesn’t matter much to me if he’s a Protestant, Jew, Catholic, Mormon, agnostic, etc. But I do have my line in the sand — islamics. And militant atheists. And black nationalist crypto islamic kenyans. I suspect everyone has their own line.

Exactly. I don’t want to vote for Romney because he doesn’t appear to have a line in the sand. His views change with the wind and that makes him untrustworthy. I couldn’t care less that he is a Mormon.

FORKED tails. I’ll bet you didn’t know that.

I agree; it’s well documented that Mormons are still violating anti-polygamy laws and I am more than sure that there is still sick stuff going on, inside those compounds.

This is pure and unadulterated bigotry, nothing less. She says "I like Mitt Romney and believe he could be a fine president under different circumstances" and then objects solely on the basis of his Mormonism.

Now If I knew Mitt Romney personally I might like him but I believe there are no circumstances under which he be a fine president. He is nothing more than a butt boy for the Northeast, moneyed, progressive, country club establishment Republicans who are Republicans only because their families have always been Republicans. These type need to be removed from influence in both the Republican Party and the country as a whole.

From the Urban Dictionary:
Butt boy: A servile underling. Especially one who is also a sycophant. A suck up or brown-noser. Synonomous with "toadie" or "stooge." A butt boy does his Master's dirty work.

Bigotry on display. My religion is better than your religion.

Not really. The poster is talking about religions vs. cults, not different religions. Thanks for your opinion, now back it with some reasons why the Mormon believers should not be called a cult; I would be interested in that. I don't know if it is or not, but your opinion, without backing, lends little to the discussion.
