Mormon leaders, military veterans and elected officials reacted with anger to a new Department of Defense policy that does not consider The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be a Christian religion as part of a wider effort to cut down the U.S. military’s list of recognized faiths.
“The Pentagon’s decision to list The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints apart from other Christian faiths is wrong and needs to be corrected,” Republican Rep. Mike Kennedy, of heavily Mormon Utah, wrote on X on Sunday.
No I am not twisting definitions. I am saying it’s easy to see that this one has nothing to do with the religious premise it jumped on and everything to do with grift.
They might all be grifts, but this one is explicitly easy to see that they just jumped someone else’s train. And therefore it is nothing to do with the other various sects.
