It is kind of weird. America has two Presidential choices, a candidate whose religion was founded by a polygamist, and wrote a Holy Book, that anyone who has FAITH must except as truth, that only his religion is the one true way to God. Let’s see now, ‘eh...what is our other choice’...I mean the candidate who represents all of the REST of us who are the vast majority? Something smells rotten in Denmark.
Freaky election, traditional marriage being defended as God’s unbreakable rule, will have representing it, one of Joseph Smith’s Bishops of a direct line serving Smith from the original followers, that is Joseph Smith of Vermont with about 50 wives.
First of all Mormons are Christians. Their religion satisfies the foundation of Christianity like any other.
1. That Jesus was our savior and died for our sins. There is now route to heaven except through him.
2. Baptism.
3. That the people must repent their sins and ask for forgiveness.
That being said there are 2 types of Christianity. Yes only 2 not more and no less.
Type 1: Catholicism
Type 2: Protestism.
Therefore Mormons are Protestants. Simple. Problem solved.
In fact I believe that Mormons (I’m not for sure) but I believe they self identify as Protestant.
We’ve had three Unitarians as President. They weren’t Christians either. Nothing remarkable in any of their administrations.
