Mormonism

LDS leaders “very much want their religion and church to be considered authentically Christian — the fourth ‘branch,’ as it were, of Christianity: Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Protestant, Mormon.”

……if you get rid of the Book of Mormon, the Pearl of Great Price, their council of Apostles, doctrines of celestial marriage and of Satan being “spirit brother” to Christ and more, I guess it would be pretty close to Christian. But that said, it wouldn’t be Mormon anymore, either.

(I’m a proud descendant, by the way, of some who evicted the Mormons from Nauvoo…..decidedly different version of events from the one you’ll hear in the Carthage jail)

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
