Due, Mormons USED to come to my house.

They don't any longer - 'cuz I would talk with 'em - and use their own scriptures to teach them.

Ditto with Jehovah's witnesses. With JW's - they always have an older 'more experienced' proselytizer paired up with a green weenie. I always talk with the older one - and, usually, after about five minutes - they are in a really big hurry to scoot that impressionable neophyte outta there. *lol*

As I said ... USED to come by here. Still chuckling.

Nothing inherently wrong with not being Christian from my perspective. :-)) The list of Mormon atrocities is very short compared to the history of Christianity. Consider the damage to the indigenous population of the 'new world' by the warriors and priests of the Iberian peninsula in the name of their religion, or the slaughter of (ahem) infidels on the way to rescue Jerusalem from the Moors so many centuries ago. (Moors! LOL! We might want to bring that word back into use as it has a wonderfully appropriate disparaging history and tone.)

Mormons have always been feared and loathed because of their secretive rituals and proselytizing ferver. Anything secret and mysterious is reviled and they're seen as competitors by proselytizing Christians. Based upon experience, Jews fear (and sadly often loathe) the evangelical Christian more than the mysterious Mormon.

But you're right about morality as the important factor, which Mormons in general and Mitt in particular practice according to the Judeo-Christian tradition.
