Mormon's don't preach politics from the pulpit at all. Political endorsements are never given. The Churches leadership has given only one directive, to prayerfully vote your conscience. That's all.

You live in Utah? I do. I attended the caucus. Several of the church leadership stood up and flatly stated that those who supported Kasich should switch their vote to Cruz to stop Trump. They weren't even subtle. Knowing how the church hierarchy functions, I seriously doubt this was a case of a couple of "loose cannons." It was like listening to the MSM. People in positions of authority had clearly been given their talking points. And when the precinct chair turns the caucus over to a couple of the bishops to run the meeting, well that's not interfering, is it? I won't get into the vote fraud that occurred. Saw that, too.

For those of you unfamiliar with Mormon theology, they don't believe "the just shall walk by faith." They believe the just walk by obedience.

Your whole post was just a load of crap.

Several of the church leadership stood up and flatly stated that those who supported Kasich should switch their vote to Cruz to stop Trump.

First, that's a caucus, it's a political event. People say political things at political events. Go figure.

Second, a Bishop is not "Church" leadership. They have regular jobs like everyone else and lead a local congregation on Sundays. They can't speak for the Church.

Third, And when the precinct chair turns the caucus over to a couple of the bishops to run the meeting,

I mean...really?? How did you know they were Bishops? They don't wear little pink beannies like the Catholics...

For those of you unfamiliar with Mormon theology, they don't believe "the just shall walk by faith." They believe the just walk by obedience.

Typical anti-Mormon post, full outright lies, half truths, and innuendo.
