to Solid Rock Church (which seems to be evangelical), answered Sanford's questions about the LDS church, but it's not clear whether the shooter was evangelical as well. He had some exposure to Mormons from living in Utah, where he dated a woman whose family was LDS. Is that where the animosity came from? Or was he motivated to attack this church because Charlie Kirk was killed by someone who might have been Mormon? If he thought the LDS church was "the antichrist" that does suggest he was some form of Christian who was offended in some way by that church, and many other Christians think Mormons are heretics but don't go about shooting them.
