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.
Ironically, the new military list of recognized faiths doesn’t include the DefSec’s own faith.
What the fuck is that forum bruh? There’s like actual news articles about it, not some random person of a forum for a place that’s apparently ranked 1268th out of 1268 for worst quality of life.
