11. the temple is not the same as a church

but basically, the President is kind of like the Pope. Like any other group, some are strict observers, some are not so observant, aka "jack Mormons".

My father was probably a Jack Mormon (my mother was a Methodist. I was raised kind of both, but am neither.)

The LDS church was also founded under the prophecy that one day a Mormon would be elected US president in order that their church could take over the US government.

Where did you read this? Not something I learned in Primary.

Progressives should not be facile toward religious cults in the name of political correctness. And if you are going to make any exceptions, definitely not with this one.

So are you saying that progressives should be as bigoted as the right?
