Over at his new incarnation of Daylight Atheism at Alternet, Adam Lee (a/k/a Ebonmuse) discusses some of the deep differences between Mormonism and what passes for Christianity in modern America. As Lee explains, Mormons are working hard to sweep those differences under the rug in order to be politically acceptable. This is still a work in progress, as shown by the struggles of Mitt Romney. Lee also draws distinctions between Mormons and atheists, the latter group undoubtedly still pegged as political outsiders, despite the fact that non-belief is America’s fastest growing “religion.”
