1960s is when we changed our immigration policy to allow people of different cultures to come here in mass quantities. Before, the immigration policy was aimed more toward Western Europeans with cultures similar to our own. And why did you mention the Spanish? The Spanish are Westerns just like other white americans.

I have voted every election in my life Republican. I feel that Mormonism is a cult rather than a part of Christianity. Therefore I cannot vote for Romney.

Christianity and Mormonism are both cults. What's your point?

Christianity - Charismatic figure is Jesus

Mormonism - Charismatic figure is Joseph Smith


At least you separated the two. I will hold on to my Charismatic figure Jesus until death takes me away!

A cult is a group that calls itself Christian but rejects one of the fundamental teachings of Christianity i.e. the deity of Christ.

That's not necessarily a cult.
It IS heresy, though, and therefore not Christian.
I still say, that I'd rather have an openly non-Christian (even though he might call himself Christian) that I agreed with, than a hypocritical so-called "Christian" who I don't agree with, any day.

I agree with you here. Although I'm not a fan of Romney's policies, I would vote for him in the general election despite his Mormonism over Obama. I think Romney is a good and hardworking guy and has good values. Though, I do support Ron Paul is the primary 100%.

Your definition of the word "cult" is made up and not at all based on the ACTUAL definition of the word.

Most churches have a cross at the top of the steeple. The Mormons have this Moroni... Which is a character not even in the bible. So they are a cult.

Yes, they are...and so is Christianity, and Judaism, and Islam. ALL religions are cults, all cults are religions. THAT is the ACTUAL DEFINITION of the word CULT.

Your definition = made up. Not real. A load of horse dookie. Fiction. Fantasy. Fake.

Understand?

God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. - Romans 12:3

Everyone has got a measure of faith. You wake up and go about your daily business because you believe you can go about your daily business. Faith is a wavelength of spiritual light.

Spiritual E/c2 - Energy (Motivation, love) / Light (faith, hope, charity)
Material E/c2 - Basically cooled E/c2 (plasma)
Intellectual E/c2 - By some alchemy intellectual studies brings forth light and energy.
