Funny how most think that saying America is a Christian nation they can't fathom that we have had the influence of the Christian religion on our country. Fact is Christianity has had that influence. If we did not, we would be a communist nation.. Being now we are kicking God out as many people have done , we are now going into socialism..

Many Americans are making the government their god and supplier. And of course all those who are satisfied with their prosperity and have no need of a god in their life.. they have now make themselves their god.

Of course, Mormons are Christian. Mormons believe in Jesus Christ. They know Him as the divine Only Begotten Son of God and look to Him as their source of salvation. They try to lead the kind of lives He taught that His followers to lead. They are every bit as "Christian" as any other denomination of Christianity.

With Mitt Romney, the Church of Latter-day Saints should finally establish Christianity as the national religion. In addition to your taxes, every citizen should be required to tithe 10% of their income to the Morman Church. This is what everyone wants.

First off, you can't even get the name of the Church correct. It's The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and its nickname is spelled "M-O-R-M-O-N." Clearly, you have a long way to go before qualifying as an expert on the subject. Secondly, would you please be so kind as to share the evidence you have to support your ludicrous statements. Why don't you start by showing how, when Romney was the governor of Massachusetts, he enacted laws requiring all citizens of that state to pay tithing to his Church. You'd think he'd have seen the governorship as a practice run for the presidency, wouldn't you?

Sure it does - for if you do not consider LDS Christian, then the number of those elected to Congress who are Mormon, go against your assertion.
