      Yeah, I'm not going to pay too much attention to who the Pope classifies as Christian or not.
      Heh.

      I think as LDS, we should be the last ones to point fingers at the Catholics on interfaith relations. Great and abominable church anyone?

      • BTW, how is it that politicians are not only allowed, but expected and encouraged to use religion as a political tool, yet religious leaders should "stick to religion and butt out of politics"?

          It's based upon whether you agree with the person or not. Duh!

              Hmm... So if you like walls then you are not Christian?

                Looks like a match. Why would they mirror the photo?

                  I have a confession to make. I also build walls. But I build more bridges.

                    And can we stop pretending that Trump is a man of strong religious conviction?

                      Make it harder to find the stock photo or because Obama is left handed

                        Rubio's neck is freakishly long in that picture.

                          Maybe they were trying to make the two look like boy scouts?

                          • I always thought liberals were more free thinkers. I mean more tolerant, more empathetic, more inclusive. Yet in the last couple of the days the Pope says I am non Christian because I believe in the wall and the leading candidate for the Presidency says I am a racist because I don't think President Obama should get to put another person on the bench.

                            I disagree with the Pope on a lot of things, but I would never call him non Christian. I disagree strongly with Ms Clinton but I would never call her a bitch. I think I still prefer being an open minded compassionate conservative like Kasich.

                              Same with the famous televangelists. They should stick with televangelizing and not define if Mormons can be called Christians or not.
