Catholics, Mormons, Evangelicals, Muslims, Atheists, Jews, J. W., etc, would you agree that Romney's speech..

Didn't get a chance to watch it- but looking forward to it. Heard it was good, but then he doesn't have anything to prove to me on a religous stand point because i am mormon. Once i watch it i will comment on it- but did want to mention to YOUCANTB... he wasn't being decietful or dishonest in saying or implying that he is christian. We do believe that we are christian- just because we don't fall under whatever you have decided constitutes a christian, doesn't mean that we are not. Mormonism does have some different doctrine than other denominations- but all denominations have differences- that's why there are so many. We all fall under the umbrella of christianity. We believe and follow the bible, we believe that Christ is our savior, and died and atoned for our sins- we believe His teachings, and strive to live by them. Besides- even if other christians don't consider that christian- that doesn't mean he lied. To lie would mean for him to believe that he was not christian and knowingly decieved others in believing that he was. We whole heartdly believe that we are christian. We are not decieving others in saying this- this is what we believe and consider ourselves. Some catholics believe that all but them are not christian because all others are branched off the "original" and what they feel is the only true church. Does that make them right? Does that mean that you aren't christian and are lying when you say you are? Basically what im trying to say is- we are not christian just because someone else decides we are not. It says in the bible that followers of christ will be known by their actions (their fruits). Not whether or not we believe in the trinity. (which by the way is not mentioned in the bible) just a thought.
