Why don’t you go back to supporting Warren Jeffs Saundra? Show your true colors here, all Mormon apologist, all the time.

What the heck is your problem?
Dude, out of respect for a fellow FReeper, even one posting as silly as you have been today, I’m not going to bore you with the long, Woody Allen-ish whiny list that would answer your question.
Then please refrain from posting to me in the future. FRegards
Such a pro-discussion type you are - how cute! I’ll try my hardest, Cutie
I asked what your problem was, you refused to answer. Nice discussion. I have asked once, politely, that your refrain from posting to me. I repeat that request.
Oh yay! One problem solved. I'll keep you informed on the others as (if) they progress since you expressed such loving concern about the subject.
Why should I have done that? You did not post the information. And I did not invent the idea, I was asking a question which had a direct bearing on the information posted in which the poster refered to "kings" & "ministries" - the tenor of which sounds a lot like the religious monarchies of old. If he had replied in the negative, the topic would have been closed. Not every question is an attack in disguise!
I'll keep you informed on the others as (if) they progress since you expressed such loving concern about the subject.
What others?
Well that pretty much confirms the intention of post - supporting Romney.
BTW, you feeling that good ol' self-righteousness burning in YOUR bosom?
You have no clue about either Mormonism or Mitt Romney if you think he is capable of handling anything.
Also, there is no GOVERNMENT religious test for office, that means people of any religion or none can run.
That doesn’t mean that Christians have to disregard religion when it comes to voting.
I would NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER vote for Mitt, even if he were an Evangelical Christian. The guy is a lying scumbag who will say anything to get elected.
I’m with JR on this - NO MITT NEVER!
What is your real motive for keeping up this dishonest mantra? You already KNOW that I'm NOT for Mittens Romneycare, because I told you in no uncertain terms before (see below). Consequently, you continue to marginalize youself with intellectually honest readers. The rest don't matter. Bug off.

You were the one that gave an ‘amen’ to this drek. Not me. You are the one who keeps popping up on Romney threads in support, that speaks more than your single post. I have yet to see any intellectual honesty from you.
And what is ‘dishonest’ about my mantra? Do tell since you obviously think I can’t think for myself.
NO ROMNEY EVER!
That's funny. I've always thought Mormons to be anti-Christian since they've professed that the Bible is full of errors and all Christian sects are wrong.
Bug off.
It’s amazing how some people believe they have the ability to know what’s in people’s minds. In fact, I don’t trust Romney. Is he pro-choice or pro-life? Is he anti-gun or pro-gun? Is he for government-run health care or against it?
But these are policies, not religious beliefs. What I object to is using someone’s religious beliefs—or presumed beliefs—to decide whether to vote for him. If I vote for Santorum, as now seems likely, it will be because I agree with his stated views on social and political questions, not because I agree with his beliefs on transubstantiation or priestly celibacy.
And if I need surgery, I will try to choose a surgeon with the ability to perform the operation as safely and effectively as possible, not one who shares my beliefs on the afterlife. My object will be to postpone finding out whether those beliefs are correct. But you are free to pick whichever surgeon you like.
You accuse me of being intellectually dishonest, of having ulterior motives for not supporting Romney and refuse to clarify or back up your insults and you say *I* fail?!
The fail is all yours. Put up or shut up.
Well, Santorum is a Christian, Romney is not.
I won’ vote for someone who thinks my Savior and Lucifer are brothers.
That said, I wouldn’t vote for Romney even if he were an Evangelical. I hate him that much.
C’mon. The Constitution says the Government can’t pass a Religious test to qualify for office, ie “You must be a Catholic.”
Voters, on the other hand, can use whatever absurd, arbitrary criteria that pleases them. If they are afraid that a Mormon president would turn the country to the dark side and be forced to put up giant statues of Joe Smith and Steve Young in every public square, that’s perfectly acceptable voter behavior.
Don’t sweat it. Religious bigotry is commonplace on both sides. It tends to wash itself out.
