. >>> welcome back, today, we're talking about changes in the roman catholic mass. we're happy to be joined in this broadcast by people of many faiths. you've told me we're not alone and these changes have impacts on other religions. >>> obviously, the catholic charge always worked with christians and nonchristians. after vatican two, most of the groups were excited about the changes. they did things like adopting the speech. they appreciated the changes we made to the readings. they also adopted a lot of our prayers. if you go to many episcopal churches, they say the gloria that we said up until two weeks ago. they said, we changed to match you and you're changing without letting us know and we don't think we want to make the same changes. they feel we're out of sink. we've made changes without consultation and understanding the impact it would have on the fact that you can walk into other churches and say the same prayers. that's upsetting to some. many of the orthodox brothers and sisters are excited about the changes. we've become more inline with what we say. pa

question, santorum is roman catholic. given two-thirds of iowa voters are christian, why didn't santorum easily defeat romney? i ask you, james. >> hi wasn't the only christian in the race. most are evangelicals. you had rick perry who had transformed himself into being the texas job creator, into being a social conservative. michele bachmann went for the social conservative vote. even newt gingrich talked about his conversion to catholicism so it's split among the candidates. >> here's santorum on the issues. >> climate change. "a beautifully concocted scheme. just an excuse for more government control of your life." gay marriage. wants a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage, saying "it destroys the basic unit of our society because it condones waiver that is antithetical to strong, healthy families." stem cell research. opposees such research, thus breaking with then-president gw bush. partial-birth abortion, led the charge in congress against partial-birth abortion. question, will santorum win new hampshi

he was roman catholic.ell, the word is out now that a group of conservative christians is holding a similar meeting now to deal with another candidate they see as a danger to their philosophy. his name is mitt romney. the concern, at least on the surface, is that he is not a conservative, not a true one. but what's interesting here is that the two rival candidates that the conservative christian group in texas is thinking of endorsing, one would assume, are rick santorum and newt gingrich, either of whom -- again, it's fair to assume -- are likely candidates to unite that 75% of the republican electorate that is unhappy with the questionable politics of mitt romney. so this is progress, i would have to say. 52 years ago the keepers of traditional american flames met to keep the gates guarded against a roman catholic. well, this time around they're meeting to consider which of the two roman catholics to endorse. to gather within their circled wagons for the all-out fight with the invading forces.

the roman catholic church does not support birth control. >> even bill o'reilly on fox interviewing santorumrecently said they were talking about birth control. bill row riley said, yes, i'm catholic but most in this country use birth control. >> i understand that. but the pope would tell those catholics in this country they're out of line with the church's teaching. you can disagree. but that's what they call cafeteria catholic, pick what you want. the reason it's gotten more complicated birth control is not just about one pill any more. they're all for different types of birth control. as we discuss there are some forms much birth control that many people believe, i think indicated in the life after the egg has been fertilized. people believe -- many people do. they don't believe that should be subsidized as taxpayer dollars or going to be -- to support that. that doesn't mean all other types are wrong. >> not going to let you off that easily on santorum. if you wanted to state the issue that way we have. >> i'm not saying that is -- >> i'm saying that's my -- >> his position was so extrem

. >> reporter: mormons hold several views which set them apart from roman catholic, orthodox and protestant christians. not acceptingheoctrine of the trinity, mormons believe that jesus and god were separate physical beings. founder joseph smith taught that traditional christianity had fallen away from the teachings of jesus, so additional and continuing revelations, like the book of mormon, were needed to restore the true faith. the lds church may hold different views from the mainstream, but mormons are deeply offended by the suggestion that they are not "real" christians. joanna brooks is senior correspondent for religiondispatches.org, an interfaith online magazine. >> the name of jesus christ is in the name of our church. so, you know, mormons do tend to feel like we're being profoundly misunderstood when we're classified as not being christian. >> reporter: and does it matter in a presidential race? >> it is a position of such high visibility in the world that, yes, having a mormon in that particular chair would have the effect of promoting mormonism, of normalizing mormonism cultural
