“As a born-again Christian, I cannot vote for him. As Dr. Robert Jeffress, pastor of a large Baptist church in Dallas, said, Mormonism is not just another denomination; it is a cult.”

Bigotry on display. My religion is better than your religion.

Not a sound argument. Why should we have to assume that all religions are equally good, effective, useful, etc.?

Statements of Christian Denominations on Mormonism:

Christian churches teach belief in God as an eternal, self-existent, immortal being, unfettered by corporeal limitations and unchanging in both character and nature. In recent years, several Christian denominations have made studies of Mormon teaching and come to the conclusion that there are irreconcilable differences between LDS doctrine and Christian beliefs based on the Bible.

Such bigotry on display, none of the Christian churches accepting Mormon baptism as Christian. Tsk. Tsk.

Really. What does any of this bullshit have to do with his qualifications to be president? Nothing. Just fuel for bigots. I'll give her one thing though--she and her ilk personify every nasty stereotype of the christian right that the media have worked so hard to spread.

Not really. The poster is talking about religions vs. cults, not different religions. Thanks for your opinion, now back it with some reasons why the Mormon believers should not be called a cult; I would be interested in that. I don't know if it is or not, but your opinion, without backing, lends little to the discussion.

The great irony in this is that mormons DO spend resources sending out missionaries across the earth to tell Christians that their faith is wrong.

The second great irony results is MITTGOTRY: the belief that everyone holding a differing faith must violate their own conscience to support a cultist.

Isn't the whole point of having a religion the idea that it is the true one and that all others are false?

Bigotry on display.

Ignorance on display.



KJV
Galatians 1:6-9
6. I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7. Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
ANYBODY???
Like this fine looking fellow???

2 Corinthians 11:12-15
12. But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
13. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
14. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Like THESE guys??
17 It no sooner appeared than I found myself delivered from the enemy which held me bound. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!


Ephesians 2:1-2
1. And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
