Religion has again reared its ugly political head, this time in the republican presidential scramble where they're all so sure that Obama can be beaten they have their gloves off. A pastor working for Rick Perry referred to Mormonism as a cult, correct? Mitt Romney asked for an apology, in essence, and has not gotten one so far. He night not want to hold his breath.
Unless I'm mistaken, Mormons consider themselves Christians, do they not? Which again rasies the question; why does anyone ever bother to try to label and define somebody elses, anybody elses, religion? Why not simply let each person define his own religion?
No, that would be too easy, too reasonable. Heaven help us that we humans should ever succumb to reason, and stop trying to define and judge other people's religiosity. Far be it for us to ever lay down a weapon, even a spiritual one.
