Sen. Mitt Romney (R.-Utah), who was the losing Republican presidential nominee in 2012, voted on Wednesday to move forward to a final vote in the Senate on the “Respect for Marriage Act,” which would recognize same-sex marriages in federal law.
“While I believe in traditional marriage, Obergefell is and has been the law of the land upon which LGBTQ individuals have relied,” said Romney. “This legislation provides certainty to many LGBTQ Americans, and it signals that Congress—and I—esteem and love all of our fellow Americans equally.”
“This legislation provides important protections for religious liberty—measures which are particularly important to protect the religious freedoms of our faith-based institutions,” said Romney. …

This adds to what I have long known and suspected about the cult calling itself the “Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.” Mormonism is one of the few things in life that really is as outrageously bad as the rumors say. Joseph Smith’s disciples *do* believe Jesus and Satan are brothers. They *do* believe people can become gods via LDS “gospels” and rituals. They *do* believe both Almighty God and Jesus Christ were once mortal men from the planet “Kolob” who somehow became divine. They *do* believe in “eternal progression,” which says Mormons who follow the cult’s dictates (especially giving it 10% of their money) will someday become “gods” and rule over their own planets.
By “they,” I don’t mean “every single Mormon.” Those who are new to the LDS religion haven’t yet been exposed to those far out blasphemies. Mormon missionaries call tricking new converts into thinking they preach real Christianity “milk before meat.” Muslims call this type of deception “taqiyya.”
Mormon dogmas pose a danger to America from within the Republican Party. Brigham Young “prophesied” that American Indians, whom Mormons falsely identify as the lost “Lamanite” tribe of Israel, will one day join the LDS “church” en masse. Mormon dogma says Hispanics are “Lamanites” because most are part Indian.
The “Lamanite” delusion explains why Romney and other Mormon politicians want amnesty for illegal aliens and open borders, and why Mormon “charities” bring in as many Latin American “refugees” as possible. Mormon leaders think combining America with Mexico is a path to power for their cult, when in fact they may be digging their own graves. 80% of illegal aliens vote Democrat. Those communists will brutally persecute anything resembling Christianity if they ever take power!
Which may not be a problem for Joseph Smith’s pseudo Christian cult. The chameleon like LDS “church” changes with the times to become more “politically correct.” It won’t be mistaken for Christianity much longer the way it’s going.
Joseph Smith originally “prophesied” that Indians would turn “white and delightsome” after converting to Mormonism. The “elders” in Salt Lake City later rewrote that passage to something “less offensive.” The Mormon high command changed their story on polygamy so Congress would grant Utah statehood.
The LDS “Twelve Apostles” had a “revelation” and ditched Mormon prohibitions against black priests and interracial marriage in 1978. Otherwise the IRS would have revoked the cult’s tax exemptions for political reasons. The powers that be in Utah doctored the “Word of Wisdom” to allow caffeine after the LDS business end invested in the soft drink industry. They have altered the “Book of Mormon” 3,913 times, and counting.
I shall make a “prophecy” of my own: the LDS “apostles” will soon have another “revelation” and declare how “delightsome” cross dressers, homosexuals, and pedophiles are. The fact that LDS “elders” can change “holy books” that were supposed to be true for all time means either Joseph Smith was wrong about polygamy and racism, or modern “church” leaders are. Both possibilities severely damage the credibility of Mormonism.
By contrast, Christians believe the Bible is true forever, from cover to cover, “political correctness” be damned. That’s why the communists calling themselves “Democrats” will persecute *genuine* churches, even as the secular establishment accepts and even encourages the increasingly “progressive” Mormon religion. Sadly I must predict that Mormonism, along with other cults and false teachings, will prosper as an ever more wicked world slouches toward Armageddon.
Re-defining the definition of marriage is an act of hatred, not love.
Are you a Romney fan?
outstanding!
Those politicians, they really have they way with words. Pretty much the only thing they can do well!
“respect for family” is going to destroy American family!
Another example of legislation name which is just opposite to what it will do.
Like the “inflation reduction act” or “affordable healthcare act” !
Has Romney got something going on “on the down low”?
You are right. Love does not embrace futility and self-harm.
Romney’s waiting patiently for polygamy to become legal !
Such a despicable disingenuous louse.
Have this moron tell us about his love for pedophiles.
His nick name wasn’t “Pierre Delecto”....it’s “Lucky Pierre”!
Baal will be please.
Mitt Romney demonstrates his commitment to homosexual “rights” before becoming Governor of Massachusetts in January 2003:
1994 Campaign vs. Ted Kennedy for U.S. Senate: Romney pledged he “will provide more effective leadership” than Kennedy on homosexual rights; endorsed by Log Cabin Republicans.
2000-2002: As head of Salt Lake City Olympic Committee, Romney banned Boy Scouts from participating.
2001 Called first citizens’ petition to define marriage “too extreme” and “bigoted” because it banned civil unions.
2002 Campaign for Governor: Romney makes promises to GLBT community, according to leading Boston homosexual newspaper; endorsed by homosexual activist Log Cabin Republicans.
The Mormon church just announced its support for the bill...really miraculously just in time for “Lucky Pierre’s” yes vote. Those Mormon Prophets sure do know the mind of God!/sarcasm
Actually it will be harder for the Mormon white shirt missionaries to befuddle Christians and others now.
“Oh we have christ and the Bible too!”
“Yes but you guys say Homo marriage is righteous in the sight of God...so no thanks”
