Defense Department cut roughly 180 religion codes from previous list, with mostly Christian denominations remaining
LDS groups and Utah Republicans rage as military no longer counts church as Christian under Hegseth religion list shake-up
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.
HAHAHAHA
