I think we dodged a bullet with Romney

Mormonism is the spawn of a man with mental health issues. Most (if not all) sects of Christianity come from an old man disliking the current institution, them having their "burning bush moment," and creating their own church.  Before someone sh*ts their pants, no shade, just history.

@ms_wonderlad....I agree. And aint that a shame? The worst of all is Billy Graham!! He took of Mormonism on his websites list of cults that Christians should not be fooled by.

@ Skittlez: you may be right in a way, but if you're inferring that Mormonism is Christianity, then you're wrong. If it is, the Rastafarianism would also be considered Christianity since they both take pieces of the Bible.

It is what it is.  Christian = follower of Christ, yes? They're Christians.  Restorationism: The term "Restorationism" or "Restorationist Movement" refers to a group of largely unrelated Christian denominations who share one important belief in common -- that Christianity went terribly astray early in its history. It experienced the Great Apostasy during which Christians abandoned many of the original teachings of Yeshua of Nazareth (Jesus Christ), Paul and other apostles. At least when it was founded, each Restorationist denomination taught that their own faith group had recreated the original form of primitive Christianity (a.k.a. "Christian Primitivism" or "Early Christianity"), just as Yeshua and the others taught. http://www.religioustolerance.org/chrrest.htm

I hate bhm sometimes when I hit post and it says "access denied" and I lose everything I typed.

Summary of what I attempted to post: Restorationist in this sense is synonymous to cult. You can look up "cult meaning" if you wish. Christians are not simply defined as "followers of Christ." These followers know this Christ and how to follow him from the Bible (Gen to Rev) and nothing else.The mormon book and faith is enough to be called a cult. Any addition or subtraction from Genesis to Revelations of the Bible is no longer Christianity. Non solos: a Christian philosophy that says that the Bible is sufficient for the Christian faith. I cannot call myself a follower of Christ and then add Buddhist readings to books of worship.
