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.

    Yeah, dumbasses, what did you think was going to happen when you vote for a theocracy where your version of the religion isn’t the main one that the fascists in power worship?

    First they came for others but now you’re next and honestly I don’t care if they come for you guys because overall your religion has been dog shit awful and your awfulness spread to the rest of us sane Americans who don’t worship a the alter of the golden obese cow.
