Stating that Mormons are not real Christians is not the same thing as Mormon bashing, though there was some real Mormon bashing during the primaries.

Let's try it a different way, see how it looks:

"Stating that MormonsCatholics are not real Christians is not the same thing as MormonCatholic bashing..."

Or how 'bout:

"Stating that MormonsBaptists are not real Christians is not the same thing as MormonBaptist bashing..."

Ummmm... yeah it is. It is the same thing. And it is ugly and unbecoming of Christians. I think we ought to leave it to God to decide who is/isn't "Christian" and focus instead on working out our own Salvation with trembling and fear.

We each of us aren't that righteous...

I disagree. Stating that MormonISM is not Christian is not Mormon bashing would be a true statement, but saying that Mormons are not Christian IS Mormon bashing.

I do not think Mormonism teaches Christianity, but I have Mormon friends that, according to how they articulate their faith verbally, meet the “Biblical” definition of a Christian at least in word.

Most of them, in deed, “seem” very Christian, but we all know how deceiving that can be. So can words frankly. That is why I keep my “bashing” to specifics only. Heck, I use that rule to bash both my church organization as well as myself.

So stating that Jews are not people is not bashing Jews? (My apologies to any Jews who might be offended)

Mormons believe in Jesus Christ (learn before you post).

Mormons are not "Orthodox Christians" but they are most definitely Christian.
