This is a spinoff from my other topic right now about Mormon history.
Due to "the Mormon moment", many Romney supporters have started defending the LDS church.
They believe (as many exmos do) that Romney would be able to seperate his beliefs from the position of presidency, and these well-intentioned people defend the LDS church in many of the same ways that members do.
This isn't a political thread. I'm just talking about people who never even thought about Mormons before are now saying things like "leave the LDS church alone, they are no different from other churches" or "every religion has skeletons in their closet".
My catholic in-laws do this anytime I talk about how the LDS church lied to me. People on a debate board run to the defense of the church whenever the subject arises.
Has anyone else noticed this?
I can't even confront the lies before someone just calls me an asshole for being nitpicky...
