On LGBT rights, the LDS church has been an opponent but also much more willing to compromise than Evangelicals (Mike Pence could've learned from Utah's approach to balancing non-discrimination ordinances with religious opt-outs). Also, I think Mormon architecture and the Book of Mormon is hilariously bizarre. I'd rather have them and Mormon space Jesus than Evangelicals.

Wikkheiser posted:On race Mormons were not that far removed from Southern Baptists. Although I'd argue today the Mormons are relatively pragmatic, although also very, very conservative. An important thing to remember about the [e: Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints] is that its supreme head is determined by age. Once you get appointed to the Quorum of the Twelve, the goal is to outlive everybody else up until the point when the previous Prophet croaks. If the current Prophet died today, he'd be replaced by a man, Russell Nelson, born in 1924. That builds a *large* lag into the church's official social positions.

https://twitter.com/oliverdarcy/status/759855911238238208 "While Trump hasn't mastered basic facts about the world, he has mastered Putin's talking points on Crimea" Seems more like he had no idea what he was talking about to me, but given recent polls show everybody despises Putin, pushing this link makes sense from HFA

You can push both angles since they both point to Trump being uniquely unqualified for the office. He's either staggeringly ignorant or in the tank for Putin.

Look man, they're still the church that had to be forced at gunpoint to renounce polygamy and was founded by a con artist on the basis of golden tablets only he could see, we can tolerate their religion while still thinking it's obviously horseshit.

I don't know about you, but when I think of "fair and honest voting" I think "Putin's Russia". Also, even if a majority may want to rejoin Russia, that doesn't justify a goddamned invasion.
