This Week's White Horse Inn

A Mormon President

On this edition of the program Michael Horton talks with Adam Christing, writer and director of a new documentary about a relatively unknown aspect of the life of Joseph Smith, namely his candidacy for President of the United States. Mike and Adam also discuss the history and theology of Mormonism, as well as some of the political questions that have arisen relating to Mitt Romney's run for office. Are Mormons Christians? Is it okay to vote for a Mormon President? These issues and more will be discussed on this edition of White Horse Inn.

Great "episode" very timely don't miss it.

This is a great episode. I noticed Dr. Horton mention something interesting which also demonstrates the vulnerability of those views which don't affirm a separation of church and state as in two-kingdom theory. Many Evangelicals expect the president to be a bit like a chaplain, and expect prayer at particular civil ceremonies, like the inauguration of the president. Will all those Evangelicals really be comfortable with a Mormon leader or Mormon president leading the country in prayer? I don't see how they can solve this problem well without affirming a stronger separation of church and state.

This will all be rendered moot when Santorum becomes the nominee.

Church`s affairs and state affairs shold not intertwined. We can vote for a mormon if we think that he is a good fit for the post.
