re: #188 C1nnabar

Dunno why this comment is getting pummeled. If someone doesn’t count Mormons among Christians, it is their intellectual right to do so, since Mormonism is a borderline case. It can be thought of as a Christian branch, or it can be thought of as a whole new religion. They have the Bible, like Christianity, but Christianity has OT and nobody calls it Judaism on that basis. Mormons have a whole new scripture, a whole new theology, so if someone classifies them as non-Christian, it can be done, as long as the purpose is an academic classification (which can be debated) and not denigration (that is obviously the purpose of the Fox hosts).
