Interview with Jimmy Carter
Perhap’s Georgia’s most famous politician is at it again, speaking about matters of politics and faith. He was recently interviewed by MSNBC/Newsweek.
Pretty tame interview until the last Q & A. I knew Mr. Carter was very liberal, but didn’t know quite how much until he said this.
Do you think a Mormon is a Christian?
Yes, I do. I have a cousin who is a Mormon and she married one of the Marriott family. I don’t know anyone who’s more devout in their faith than she and her family. I admire them very much.
Wow. Comments like this right after quoting the Bible. Is devoutness the standard of whether someone is a Christian or not? Devoted to what?
UPDATE: Oh yea, the question where he says all the major world religions, including Christianity, are compatible, that was pretty bad too, and I guess his beliefs on Mormonism flow from that answer.

I read the interview. His church elders need to be contacted. He obviously needs discipline. I wonder if they are SBC? I can see the headlines now…..”Jimmy Carters church impeeches him!” Not! What a Quack!

BJ,
To the best of my knowledge, Jimmy Carter was SBC, but he ( and I am assuming his church) withdrew and now are members of the more liberal Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. I don’t think you’ll find much church discipline going on in that denom/association, but this is just a guess.

Oh Well! It is painfully obvious that he either doesn’t understand Mormanism, or Christianity. The two are not compatable in anyway. Wasn’t he an UNC grad?
