Not a fresh article -- but since many LDS threads repeatedly raise the question whereby Presbyterians, Mainstream Protestants & Evangelicals ask Mormons, "what is untrue about Presbyterianism?" -- and routinely don't get answers -- I thought it'd be a relevant post.

As the author points out, LDS' "scripture" specifically says "Presbyterian is untrue" -- something you don't find in reverse among revelations claimed by Christianity.

Harry Reid holds more power than Mitt Romney and yet his Mormonism has never been reported as a matter of public concern.

Its a lot easier to defend his Mormonism than his whacked out politics.

>> Smith asked God which Protestant denomination was true—the Methodists, Presbyterians, or Baptists. <<

See, the problem was he asked which Protestant denomination was true. ;^D

I just think it is a man crush thing with Hugh. Lawyers in love. Republican Metro’s. Policy wonks who can do socialism better. I imagine when together they giggle a lot.

Hugh Hewitt’s show sucks. But he’s a good guy.

This may come as a shock, but Catholics think Baptists, Mormons, Lutherns and everyone else has it wrong. Lutherns think Baptists, Catholics, Mormons and everyone else has it wrong too. Why would the LDS faith be any different?

Why would ANY denomination say, “Well, we think we have everything right, and those (insert opposing denomination here) also have it right .... but gosh, please give us your tithing”. Episcapalians think key concepts in Christianity are ignored or wrongly interpreted by Protestants, and visa versa. The LDS believe that the bible is missing key components that were taught by Christ and practiced in the early church - but have been dropped or removed over time.

Mitt is running as a Conservative Republican. You can either vote for him, or you can chose not to. What does his faith have to do with anything? If anything, his faith is HARDER to follow than most others (no drinking, smoking, cheating, attend your meetings, pay 10% tithing, ect). Of all the ‘conservative’ candidates last election, he was the only one with one wife.

TO criticize Romney, one should look at his politics and history, not his religion.

This author seems to say that no Christian should ever vote for any Mormon. I reject that.

I believe cult has about it an element of coercion, which is simply not applicable to the Mormons and it is a sect.”

Huh?

I’m fine with Mormon Mitt. It’s Liberal Mitt I can’t stand.

Does it put a tingle up your leg to post two-year old articles?

“Hugh Hewitt, a political pundit radio personality, wants the Mormon presidential election runner Mitt Romney in the Whitehouse—very badly.”

Why? If we want statist liberalism, Chairman Maobama can provide it better than any RINO.

Don’t like Hewitt and am not surprised he would back Romney.

It should be abundantly clear by now, with all that has been perpetrated against us in the last 100 days, that "Mormonism" is the least of our concerns.

I have decideed that those who dwell on this issue in the political domain are colluding in a leftwing tactic to keep the Right divided. Let it go, anti-Mormons. We have a wolf in the kitchen and you are weeping and gnashing your teeth over a mouse in the corn crib.

I stopped listening to Hewitt! He’s so sure he has all the answers!

I listen to Mark Levin now!
