Yes, there are people out there that truly believe that you can not be a Christian and a Democrat. If you claim to be both, then you are "false" Christian.

Clearly, having list the election their god has been revealed to be the false one. Hail Zeus

I'm trying to figure this "Christian" thing out.

Obama is a Christian
Romney is not

How did electing Obama over Romney disappoint the Christians?

I have to admit I wasn't sure so I Googled: "Are Mormons Christian?"

Holy hell did that open a can of worms......

Christians believe in Christ - that's the definition right? And Mormons do believe in Christ, they just added some mumbo jumbo on top of it.

The larger question need not be answered because the common ground is white people who believe in theocracy and generally short hair. As opposed to dark-skinned, long-bearded theocrats who are to be feared (probably correctly). This allows American evangelicals to profess love for Israel (Netanyahu-style) while simultaneously having little use for American Jews.

Thank you.

Yeah, apparently not quite that simple. Who knew religion could be so complicated.

Ask most devote Christians and they will say that Mormons are not Christians.

katiesue 11-08-2012 03:56 PM

Yes but Mormons themselves, at least the ones I know, consider themselves to be Christian.

In my book, anyone who professes themselves to be Christian IS some type of Christian. Christians tend to disagree with this standard. The matter is rife with the "No True Scotsman" fallacy.
