And if Romney was a Scientologist, Hare Krishna, a member of Heaven's Gate, or a Wiccan, the 'attacks' would be the same.
It is perfectly okay to question the fitness of a cult member to become the GOP nominee.
It is okay to vote against a cult member for that reason too.
Religious freedom doesn't trump either free speech or common sense when one steps into the voting booth.
If Romney truly believes LDS tenets, he is manifestly unfit to be president...and should only be considered in the general election as the lesser of two evils if the GOP is collectively stupid enough to nominate him.
No argument there, you are free to support or oppose whoever you wish, for whatever reasons. But there are consequences of calling other FReepers (who have not supported the liberal causes Romney espoused when running for the governorship of Massachusetts) "cultists".
Attack Mitt Romney any way you choose, but remember most people who share his religion are usually always on our side. They don't need to be attacked in the process of saying why Mitt Romney would not be the best choice as President.
I think it quite acceptable to look into such matters for our Presidential candidates.
You all do recall when Billzo signed the Religious Freedom Restoration act specifically so his father's church could start using peyote on reservations, right?
Not that Romney or Giuliani would be getting into such things, but it's certainly more than fair to ask what the real doctrines of their churches are.
