The comparison to Barack Obama's church (a.k.a Rev Wright) and the Mormon church is insanely stupid. The media, so-called academic supporters of Obama, and even Rev Al Sharpton have compared the Mormon Church to Rev Wright's so-called theological sermons. This comparison could not be further from the truth. Why?
1. Political ramblings and directed sermons are not a common practice with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS).
2. Anti-government sentiments are not a practice with the LDS.
3. Speech that ignite "hatred" is against true Christian beliefs even that of the LDS Church.
4. There is no such thing as a Mormon Church. It is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
Finally, Rev Wright refers to his church as the "black church." This has the connotation that there is a "white church." Ironically, any "white man" who would call his church the "white church" will be a called a racist. In the true christian world, there is no place for a "black church" or any church that claims itself to be of a specific "nationality, ethnicity, gender, or greed." It should be the the Church of Jesus Christ and nothing else. To claim otherwise, entails ignorance and complete irreverence of Him for which sermons should be based.
