In the meantime they have a guy communicating with God on a daily basis. Fascinating.
Any mormon Pelicans/Pelican mormons? If so, no offence. Each to his own. I mean, I believe in Darwin and according to statistics that would make half of all America think me a darn fool. Fine with me.

I certainly have nothing against Mormons (all religions are equal fantasy worlds to me), but his religion, and his religion alone, will prevent him from getting the nomination and the presidency. The US is still kinda weird about the "less mainstream" religions.
