I agree that Mormon should be capitalized, but why would you expect Perry to show respect for your religeon when he has repeatedly said that it is a cult? Would that not be hypocritical on his part?

Blaine: Using English conventions when using the English language is always appropriate, but refusing to use these conventions when addressing others is an obvious attempt to bash. If Perry insists on doing that, I regret to say I cannot hear anything he says, because what he does speaks so loudly. He is entitled to his opinion that Mormons are members of a cult, but he is not entitled to denigrate individuals by using slurs intended to denigrate an entire group of individuals, myself included. Refusing the accepted convention of capitalizing "mormon" is tantamount to saying "nigger" as a substutute for "Black." I have noticed people who use the word "nigger" in their writing often don't capitalize it, either.=============================================================================
