  • 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 ...

  • Slates Bigotry blindness...

    ''Republican voters, faced with a choice between a say-anything robo-pol and a genuine, slightly nutty Southern boy, chose the guy without any money. Romney was so noxious that Republicans actually chose the less viable candidate—not what Republicans are supposed to do'' Slate, how about stating the obvious! Romney lost the south because of ...

  • Re: The Problem with Mormons

    I've been converted to Mormanism and I don't understand how other's can't open themselves to the possibility that God appeared to Joseph Smith, led him to the 'gold plates', and caused him to translate these plates into the ''Book Of Mormon''? I don't subscribe to ALL that is written in the book of Morman, but I'll tell ya what, raising my ...

  • Mitt Romney Campaign

    It is ridiculous that Romney's faith should play such a huge role in this campaign. The Mormon way of life is commendable, and should be researched (using non-biased sources) thoroughly before any rash judgments are made about it. Why is Obama not being attacked for being Black? (Of course not, that would be discriminatory) Why isn't Clinton ...

  • blatant prejudice

    Perhaps, if one is going to write a piece on an individual with a specific religious affiliation, one should not be ''anti'' that religion. Making such petty attacks upon the LDS church only decreases the author's credibility, which was shaky enough due to factual errors about this faith. The autho states that Mormons believe that a ''skin of ...

  • How Christopher makes a living

    Chistopher Hitchens works stirs emotions regardless of why he does it or how great of person he is or isn't. For me his work creates feelings of sadness and at times promote me to sense of action. He seems to me in this article, along with many other peoples comments here to cry for Mormon honesty. I have read a few of his other articles and he ...

  • Fighting Words: Mitt The Mormon

    Christopher Hitchens and Slate's unabashed and shameless contempt for all things Mormon has been showing for months. So, today's supporting material –Mitt The Mormon -- for Hitchens nomination as ''Bigot of the Year,'' while disappointing -- as a rule, I happen to admire Hitchens writing -- was no particular surprise. Hitchens was right about ...
