Mormonism a Racket?

Hmm, this was a very jealous sounding, arrogant article. But I'm sure the author will have a wonderful following a century or so after now, and probably millions of people will have read his great works. He'd make a great mormon. Maybe after he dies?

Subject:
Another Hit Job On Slate.Com: "Mormonism: A Racket Becomes a Religion"

Body:
This week Slate published an absolutely terrible trilogy of excepts from Vanity Fair Columnist Christopher Hitchens new book "God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything." Part one puts forth Hitchens "objections" to religion (where takes jabs Pascal and C.S. Lewis). Part two "explores" whether Muhammad was an epileptic. And shameful part three is another hit piece on Mormonism (following Jacob Weisberg's bit of religious bigotry last December):


Mormonism: A Racket Becomes A Religion
What happens when a racket turns into a religion? Mormonism.
By Christopher Hitchens
