by the way, I agree with Jason. Yes, Mormonism is not mainstream christianity and teaches concepts mainstream christianity views as heresy, but if the primary definition of a christian is to "accept Jesus as one's savior", ie, to believe that the act of atonement in someway absolves human beings of sin and enables them to return to God, then there is no doubt Mormons are christians.

I understand the antipathy that exists between Mormonism and mainstream christianity, and there is no doubt the early leaders of the LDS church encouraged and exacerbated that antipathy, but that does not mean Mormons cannot logically be called Christians.


And in the Mormon mindset Joe is here to finish the job Christ started, like millennial bookends.


No he is not. Do you really not understand the Church you have left and so badly hate?


I understand it well Jason. Mormons have a spititual blinder on when they talk to former members in which someone explains actual conclusions one can reach using mormonisms systems of beliefs and yet the Mormon will invariably say "nononono...u just misunderstand it."

Bull Jason. Joe was here to take over the job of lord and savior. It was a reload in his mind and joe claimed he hit the power switch and engaged the backup.

Another question for all the candidates to answer would be:

Would you put the needs of the American people above any demands of your God?

Would you ever allow your religous beliefs to come second to the needs of the American People?

(just a yes or no answer will do, thank you.)
Aim at at nothing and you're sure to hit it.
