How is it any different than Islam? Roland00 Send a noteboard - 06/09/2011 05:00:30 PM
It may seem more strange to you since Mormonism is a recent development less than 200 years ago, but Islam is a similar "crazy" jump from other monotheistic religions when Islam was founded 1400 years ago. What is crazy to you is all relative.

Furthermore the same argument can be made about Christianity from Judaism 2000 years ago.

Jon Huntsman, the No-Drama Conservative (he speaks like a diplomat but he is no moderate) Roland00 - 03/09/2011 05:11:12 PM 2723 Views
I haven't had a chance to read the entire article yet random thoughts - 03/09/2011 09:00:22 PM 389 Views
Do we need two catholics in the race? *NM* Roland00 - 03/09/2011 11:24:19 PM 196 Views
I'd settle for one real one. Cannoli - 04/09/2011 09:44:03 PM 353 Views
Santorum is not a real catholic? Furthermore Gingrich converted to Catholicism *NM* Roland00 - 05/09/2011 12:39:38 AM 159 Views
and they both have even less of chance than Huntsman does to win random thoughts - 06/09/2011 02:08:51 AM 365 Views
Real Catholics, especially educated Latin-mass types should understand just-war morality *NM* Cannoli - 14/09/2011 12:47:28 AM 162 Views
Personally I think the left spends way to much time focusing on relgion random thoughts - 06/09/2011 02:04:54 AM 415 Views
Religion is an indication on whether or not a candidate is rational-minded or not. Great Lord of Chaos - 06/09/2011 11:11:43 AM 520 Views
I agree the left does use religious prejudice to disqualify candidates random thoughts - 06/09/2011 02:04:02 PM 360 Views

Good point, they're all crazy. Vivien - 07/09/2011 06:30:32 AM 374 Views
I am an athiest, but they are not all crazy Roland00 - 08/09/2011 02:19:38 AM 374 Views
The religions are crazy. The people believing in them are not necessarily crazy. Vivien - 08/09/2011 06:33:46 PM 357 Views
I've yet to meet a rational sane atheist. Joel - 12/09/2011 10:01:59 PM 431 Views
Did you just call yourself irrational and/or insane? *NM* Legolas - 12/09/2011 10:38:24 PM 164 Views
It's late, so you may have to spell it out for me: Did I claim to prove a negative in there? Joel - 13/09/2011 12:09:09 AM 358 Views
That's a good point! Vivien - 14/09/2011 04:34:36 PM 377 Views
At the risk of extended tangent, that's a reasonable premise, but not one that leads to atheism. Joel - 21/09/2011 12:55:57 AM 508 Views
To cite a pop culture figure, Ken Jennings seems pretty rational Isaac - 06/09/2011 10:09:25 PM 466 Views
They can compartmentalize. Vivien - 07/09/2011 06:33:42 AM 401 Views
Everyone does that Isaac - 07/09/2011 06:59:02 AM 370 Views
So, you don't think that religiosity in american politics is increasing? Vivien - 07/09/2011 06:56:12 PM 425 Views
No, absolutely not Isaac - 08/09/2011 03:25:49 AM 352 Views
Why the hostility? Vivien - 08/09/2011 03:36:37 PM 357 Views
That would be my question for you Isaac - 08/09/2011 05:01:42 PM 439 Views
Ay. Vivien - 08/09/2011 06:27:17 PM 392 Views
We seem not to be getting anywhere Isaac - 09/09/2011 12:15:02 PM 346 Views
Honestly, I had the same reaction as Isaac, which is why I responded as I did. Joel - 12/09/2011 10:12:36 PM 483 Views
Much better. Vivien - 14/09/2011 04:49:38 PM 381 Views
Glad you liked it. Joel - 20/09/2011 11:17:35 PM 475 Views
why do you think America is becoming more religious? random thoughts - 07/09/2011 03:07:58 PM 367 Views
I said religiosity is increasing in american politics, and because it is. *NM* Vivien - 07/09/2011 06:57:35 PM 161 Views
spoken like a true believer, who needs facts when you have faith and righteousness *NM* random thoughts - 07/09/2011 09:36:45 PM 169 Views
Just based on my observations. I haven't written a report on it. Vivien - 08/09/2011 03:38:40 PM 377 Views
Gallup has looked into it random thoughts - 08/09/2011 04:44:25 PM 430 Views
Again, that's not what I said. Vivien - 08/09/2011 06:04:13 PM 347 Views
I think the opposite is true random thoughts - 08/09/2011 06:48:41 PM 369 Views
Re: I think the opposite is true Vivien - 08/09/2011 07:11:37 PM 414 Views
Maybe to some extent, but not much. Gher - 07/09/2011 11:22:08 PM 384 Views
There's an odd line halfway the article... Legolas - 03/09/2011 10:39:42 PM 505 Views
Which lines are you referring to? *NM* Cannoli - 04/09/2011 10:03:06 PM 142 Views
This part: Legolas - 04/09/2011 10:25:57 PM 402 Views
really? I didn't read this as a neutral article random thoughts - 06/09/2011 02:07:22 AM 358 Views
If you read it as a positive pro-Huntsman article, that only makes the contrast weirder still. *NM* Legolas - 07/09/2011 10:26:30 PM 159 Views
I think the problem may be your prospective random thoughts - 08/09/2011 05:09:31 AM 353 Views
Seriously? That quote parodies and mocks things that matter to conservatives. Legolas - 08/09/2011 08:39:21 PM 362 Views
no the quote mocks people who call him a RINO random thoughts - 08/09/2011 09:45:52 PM 348 Views
That actually sounds like a joke conservatives would say to each other where no media could hear Cannoli - 14/09/2011 12:52:18 AM 377 Views
Well, I certainly like him better than any other Republican candidate I have heard about. *NM* Darth_Katie - 06/09/2011 10:34:36 PM 171 Views
That actually managed to alarm me a lot more than it reassured me. Joel - 12/09/2011 09:52:31 PM 448 Views
