  Racist? Your comment/accusation makes no sense. Iran is not a race. It is a country. Islam is a religion, not a race. Words mean stuff. Get informed.

  Check it out if you are truly interested in their explanations of some of their most misrepresented beliefs and practices. If you are insincere, or happier remaining ignorant or misinformed, then don’t bother.

  Dude, Mormon’s reading this are laughing at you right now. I am. You are so ignorant on the subject…. or you aren’t and you are horribly dishonest… but, I’ll give you benefit of the doubt.

  There is hope for him. His bio says he worked with Jack Anderson. That guy was as brutally honest in his reporting as they come.

  No version of the Bible is 100% accurate. Have you ever noticed all of the italicized words in the KJV? They are italicized because the translators and council members could not agree on what the word meant in English, so they voted on it or inserted words they wrote themselves to give the idea some degree of completeness. Even traditional Christians don’t agree on much of the Bible. Many Christians are divided on the biblical soundness of the doctrine of the rapture. It is not explicitly taught in the Bible. Many traditional Christians feel that it is a vague comforting doctrine created by connecting some very distant dots with some very long lines.
  I can see, also that you are unfamiliar with the narrative of the Book of Mormon, which contains an account of Christ’s visit to His “other sheep” in what is now the Americas. There is not time or space to satisfy your curiosity here, but I invite you to read it to get the whole story (copies are easily attainable through mormon.org). It explains that the believers were severely persecuted and killed off. There are many Native American stories of a great white god visiting their ancestors and promising to return. Many of their customs and rituals reminded them of this. The Book of Mormon confirms these oral traditions.

  You obviously got very unreliable information from your ex-Mormon source. Would you trust a man’s ex-wife or his current wife to give you a better assessment of his character? Also, a truth presented in the wrong context, or without sufficient background can seem absurd. People who want to prove something false will often twist things when it suits their agenda, or it gives them a false sense of security in their wrongness. Try mormon.org if you want the official church statements on Mormon doctrines.
  There is nothing “secret” in the temple, but there is plenty that is sacred. We don’t talk openly about it in order to preserve that sacredness. It’s like when Jews spell G_d or refuse to say His name. I hope you’ll be respectful of that when talking to Mormons. Our other buildings are open to all. The signs out front all say “Visitors Welcome.”
  Temple clothing is representative of covenants we have made with God, much like the cross that many Christians wear as jewelry, or a Priest’s collar, or a Rabbi’s robe. There are plenty of other examples of religious symbolism in clothing that I’m sure you wouldn’t think of making fun of.
  Finally, you said that Mormons aren’t Christian. What you’re really saying is “I don’t see Mormons as being enough like me, so I don’t think they are Christian.” Who decides whether Mormons are Christians? Is it you? Your pastor? The Pope? I‘m glad that my only judge and savior is Jesus and you don’

  @PERNICIOUSD

  I don‘t remember Romney saying 4 yrs ago that God hasn’t spoken to anyone since Moses. Can you show me where to find it quoted?

  You need to become better informed about Mormons before making more comments about them. It undermines your credibility and integrity.

  Mormons follow prophets, but the Mormon prophets tell us to follow Jesus and His teachings. We all need someone to remind and encourage us to do that. The prophets are also pretty good at setting an example for us of how to do that. They are incredibly good and decent men.
  Romney and other Mormons participate in the Lord’s Supper every Sunday where we promise to take upon us the name of Christ, always remember Him, and keep His commandments. All of the “oaths” in other ordinances are similar.

  You horribly msirepresent what Mormons believe and reveal that are grossly ignorant or “bearing false witness”. Please stop talking about Mormons as if you know something about them, because the comments you made are inaccurate, especially the part about eternally pregnant wives dropping babies on planets. Though some have conjectured on it, we don’t know how that works.

  All Christian churches have teachings and practices that are extra-biblical. Some believe in some pretty far out things like bread and wine literally turning into flesh and blood or handling snakes, etc., but you accept them into the Christian community because they are well established traditions.

  You said none of the Mormon’s beliefs are in the Bible… Do you mean the Mormon belief that Jesus Christ is the resurrected Son of the Living God, the Savior and Redeemer of mankind and the only true path to heaven? Do you mean the Mormon belief that because Jesus chose to offer Himself as a perfect sacrifice, we can be imperfect and sin and still have access to the love of God? That is the central message of the Bible and of the Mormons.

• Was Jesus a Socialist? MSNBC‘s Lawrence O’Donnell Has Theories

  April 26, 2011 at 9:49pm

  Jesus was what would be most accurately called a “consecrationist”, which neither socialists or capitalists are. Jesus did not believe in a “government”, not even a theocracy. He taught that if people would follow his way, they would be set free and need no government. He said to render unto Caesar that which is Caesar‘s and unto God what is God’s. God doesn’t use money; doesn’t need it; wouldn’t take it at all. Churches use it to do God’s work because it is required in this world, but in Jesus’ “kingdom”, there would be no need for money.

  Applying Odonell’s logic, if Jesus required all of our money, there wouldn’t be any left for Caesar/government and it would collapse.
