Mormons
Gang,
I'm a news junkie and a politics wonk.
One of the things that fascinates me about the Emerging Church is its politics. Unlike Fundamentalists and the overwhelming majority of Evangelicals, who are predominately Republican and are the driving force behind the Religious Right in America, Emerging Church people are much more in the Billy Graham tradition of born again people whose politics is more moderate and perhaps ticks every so slightly toward the Democrats. (I'm sure you all know that Billy Graham has at least very strongly hinted that he voted for Bill Clinton and openly acknowledges that he was raised in a Democrat family.)
Anyway...
...if you are as interested in the political process as I am, you are probably aware of the sniping that has been going on among GOPs about 'religion.' Mike Huckabee was recently quoted as asking a New York Times Magaine reporter, “Don’t Mormons believe that Jesus and the devil are brothers?”
Do they?
