McCain's religious background?
John McCain's Religious Background: What Does John McCain Believe and Why? John McCain had a devout Episcopal upbringing: he was raised in the Episcopal church, his great-grandfather was an Episcopal minister, and he graduated from an Episcopal high school. Today, however, he attends the North Phoenix Baptist Church which is part of the Southern Baptist Convention. In 2007 he described himself as Baptist rather than Episcopalian and emphasized how important being a Christian is to him. In his book Character is Destiny he says that his religious faith helped him survive his years as a POW. McCain's church's theology is that Jesus chose to die on the cross as a sacrifice to pay a penalty the rest of us owed God, even though Jesus himself led a sinless life.

In what ways were Jews confused by the appearance of John the Baptist?
For the most part, they weren't. Jewish tradition is that the founders of Christianity had very little impact upon the Jewish community - which is why the early Christians soon had to seek adherents among the non-Jews. Most Jews at the time (and that means well over 90%) never heard of Jesus, Paul, John, et cetera.Answer:Within the Christian narrative, Jesus claims that John the Baptist was a reincarnation of Elijah the Prophet who needed to come in order to inaugurate the coming of the Messiah. However, John the Baptist himself refused to validate this view. Given that John the Baptist was well-received in Jewish circles, this served to confuse the Jews about Jesus' true nature as the Messiah.

Did Mormons put a head on a platter?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) have no religious belief, doctrine, or practice related to putting a head on a platter. Mormons do believe that John the Baptist's head was placed on a platter, as the Bible describes, but it would be grotesque and inapproprate to imitate such a thing. The only time a Mormon might put a head on a platter would be as a part of a Halloween decoration, not related to their religious faith.
