I'm thinking of Congratulating the Republicans for making HISTORY

I think this is the very FIRST time in US History that any political party has nominated someone who is NOT Christian for the office of POTUS.

(their heads will explode, not that I agree with it, but making their heads explode is awesome)

first and foremost, most mormons consider themselves christian.

also, some of the previous presidents arguably were deists or non-religious, though none ever explicitly denied being christian.

and yes I know we *should* be having a conversation about what's best for the nation, but honestly, when they say Muslim extremist socialist Kenyan, I can say, Christian? Read Commandment ONE, and see Planet Kolob.

In Short, if they can LIE about my guy, I can tell the truth about theirs.
