  • Hitchens lets his passion undermine his point

    These rants from Hitchens have entertainment value, I suppose, but as with all of today's opinion-driven media they must be taken with a grain of salt. A lot could be written, but I'll just focus on one point here: Hitchens is mistaken to think that a failure to conflate Mormonism with Christianity indicates bigotry. The teachings of Mormonism ...

  • Fantastic article!

    Someone tell me why those in the USA who try so hard to get the 10 commandments posted all over in our public square and taught to our kids in school break so many of them trying to get that done? And also fight so hard to take money from the poor and middle class and put in the hands of the rich? And also to keep corporate greed-based health ...

  • Very well written, but...

    The so-called Mormon views that are focused on are hardly the core of the Mormon gospel. Rather, they are the version of Mormonism that SBC pamphlets would like to focus on. If you want to know what Mormons really believe, read the Articles of Faith, written by Joseph Smith in response to a request for clarity by Mr. Wentworth of the Chicago ...

  • I agree- but...

  • Why is he only being judged as a Mormon?

    This article was written very one sided showing the doubts a person would have dealing with a Mormon politician. As a presidential candidate I would be more interested in how his religeous beliefs have or will effect his job or decision making. To jump to conclusions and catigorize him as a racist is far to extreme to do to any canidate without ...

  • Re: romeny

    The LDS faith (''Mormonism'') promotes the upkeep of national laws and particularly the rule of law. If man's laws are running contrary to what the Senator thinks is right for the nation, he would go through the same process as any elected official would need to go through in order to change those laws. Isn't that what we ask of any elected ...

  • SCIENTOLOGY SAVED MY DAUGHTER'S LIFE

    First off, let me just say that I am a Catholic. Born Catholic, raised Catholic, practiced Catholicism till this day... and always will. What I experienced 2 weeks ago has made me question (to a very great extent) why there is so much negativity surrounding Scientology. There is a great deal of negative publicity. Why? I now know the ...
