They do a LOT of good, are one of the more active charitable christian groups out there... and seem honestly to generally be a lot more positive and generally nice then people on average. So even if they were a cult, good for them. We'd probably be better off if there were more Mormons out there. |
I wouldn't exactly say that the Mountain Meadows Massacre was a good thing ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_Meadows_massacre ), and I'm not sure if there's anything analogous to it in Baptist history.

Well... the inquistion. Since they branched off from catholics after that.
I mean... seriously... 1857?

I wouldn't be particularly thrilled with the prospect of a Fundamentalist Catholic like Santorum or a Fundamentalist Evangelical like Perry or Bachmann being President either.

Don't think you have a choice, what considering Obama is the most outwardly religious president since Jimmy Carter.

Bush was far more religious than Obama lest we forget he thought he had some calling from a god that doesn't exist to save the world from Islam, he tried to curtail research into stem cells, and he was elected to his second term because he wanted to deny gays their civil rights.
