Before you get all righteous you should consider that approximately a third of protestant pastors don't even believe in the divinity of Jesus, so the triune god doesn't make any sense to them. Who "the Christian God" really is, is a matter of mere opinion these days.

The President of the Episcopal Divinity School has asserted repeatedly that "abortion is a blessing," and no doubt scoffs at the Incarnation. You think she's a better Christian than Mitt Romney is?

“approximately a third of protestant pastors don’t even believe in the divinity of Jesus, so the triune god doesn’t make any sense to them”

Right-O buzzard!

All Protestants that do not believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, also doubt the teachings of that divinely inspired Bible. No shock there.

As such, they are probably not Christians.

As to the triune God making sense to humans... Revelation about the divine doesn’t make sense to humans. Doesn’t have to. We see that God is One in the Bible. We see each member of the Godhead has all the attributes of God. We rightly conclude there is One God who has three Persons. Settled in the face of cultic opposition more than a thousand years ago.

As such, mormonism the cult is nothing new. It is simply a recycling of cultic falsehood. Satan’s fashion show of heresies. The platform shoes of evil.

The wonder isn’t that mormonism is a collection of false teachings. The wonder is that God reaches out to mormons and offers to forgive their sin and give them eternal life... as He does to each of us. Wondrous!

Unfortunately, like the monkey trap where they put a nut inside a coconut shell, once a mormon grabs the heresies of mormonism, his hand is trapped on a path to a destiny apart from God for eternity. He can let go and accept God’s gift at any time, but he is often loath to admit the errors he accepted and so he clings to the nut of mormonism, held in place, thinking he has a treasure. It is a trap. May the One God open his eyes. That is what it takes.

Happy Thanksgiving,
AMPU

Do you have a reputable citation or study link to show those numbers.

I don’t think either is Christian.

Actually Bishop Romney is not a Christian at all, so it doesn’t make sense to compare him to good or bad Christians and ask if he is a better Christian than they are.

Romney is pro-abortion as well, as he is full blown, pro-homosexual, and believes that he will become a God.
