Mormon leaders, military veterans and elected officials reacted with anger to a new Department of Defense policy that does not consider The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be a Christian religion as part of a wider effort to cut down the U.S. military’s list of recognized faiths.
“The Pentagon’s decision to list The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints apart from other Christian faiths is wrong and needs to be corrected,” Republican Rep. Mike Kennedy, of heavily Mormon Utah, wrote on X on Sunday.
LOL, I find this hilarious.
Don’t all the people that want America to be xtian know just WHY this country was set up as a secular nation?
It’s so all these various denominations could ALL have the freedom to practice their chosen lifestyle in the way they want, without government interference as long as they don’t step on others’ rights.
It’s that fucking simple. All of the faces aching to be leopard meat, though…
