How the GOP Saved Itself and Made Mormons Christians

I have no problems admitting that I  believe Mormonism is not part of the Christian church and that many sects in the Mormon church are very much cults.  I've said this numerous times all over this site and stand by it.  My opinion of course.

I'm not alone in this regard either.  Up until just a few days ago, the most famous pastor in America, Billy Graham, agreed with me.  Except he was probably much more vocal and much more incendiary against the Mormon church than me.  He actually labeled Mormonism as a cult on his God-ordained website.  I'm not a pastor or anywhere near a self-proclaimed man of God like Graham [but the Fold Blog is ordained by God].  I simply have an opinion on the subject.  Whereas he's a leading cleric of the Christian faith.  He is the authority on the matter.  And he labeled Mormonism a cult-- a cult that was not based on Christianity.  Pretty strong stuff.

Republicans lining up to vote
This posed a problem for Graham and his political party the GOP.  Republicans like Graham have longed believed that they are the chosen leaders of this country.  A vote for them is a vote for Jesus and the Bible.  But a huge problem occurred.  The leader of their political party and the man they are voting for is Mormon.  Yikes!  The leader of their blessed GOP is a Mormon who believes God lives on Planet Kolob, the Garden of Eden is in Missouri and wears magic underwear.  What to do??

Simple really.  Just remove Mormonism from your list of cults on your website.  Wham bam it's done.  So now voting for Mitt Romney is just the same as voting for Richard Nixon or George W. Bush, you know God's plan for America.

Yet that doesn't tell us the whole story.  It's more than just a simple deletion of some text from a website that has saved the GOP from God's wrath.  What they are doing is completely rewriting the requirements of Christianity.  And it's all based on abortion and marriage equality.  As we all know, those are the only two issues Jesus ever spoke about.
