Re: And why not? (4.00 / 2)
I'm a little more surprised at the classification of Romney as "non-Christian". The official name of the Mormon church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Re: And why not? (none / 1)
It occupies sort of a weird in-between space in the minds of most Americans, though.  Not really another religion, but not really Christianity.  For starters: Remember, Christian Jesus was from the Middle East.  Mormon Jesus was from Albany.  Christian Jesus believed in loving thy neighbor.  Mormon Jesus thought -- until 1978, when the IRS looked like it might take his tax exemption away -- blacks could only get into Heaven as slaves.

So let's be honest:  They are quite different in many ways.

Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
