“I admire some of the attributes of the Mormon society, However, I don’t feel comfortable with a large international singular/self centered religious body with the influence like the Mormons being in such a powerful position.”

May I bring to your notice the Roman Catholic church, of which I am a rather insignificant member ? Its much larger and wealthier, just as centralized, and has a very long and extensive history of political involvement and controversy. Its the worlds oldest political institution in fact. In the US it has far more economic, political and ideological influence than the Mormons.

Precisely the same things were said about John F Kennedy at the time.

As a Catholic, you know that Mormonism is a non-Christian cult.

Mormonism is an anti-Christian religion, founded on converting Christians, mostly with clandestine means, what they call milk before meat, where they convince the (often Catholic) Christian that he or she is merely moving sideways, moving into another Christian denomination.

Actually that person is moving into Bishop Romney’s, antiChristian religion, a move which will require baptism into Mormonism.

I agree with your adding to my remarks the Catholic Church which certainly has had more societal problems, at least present day,than the Mormon Church. My thoughts are about any religious organization that attempts to control the governmental actions/structure of our Nation.
