I disagree. Mitt brought the issue into the open for debate.
He should expect some questioning of the intelligence of a presidential candidate who would believe an angel mysteriously gave a new scripture from tablets that just ‘happened’ to disappear when challenged.
Mormons are great people; I have some Mormon friends.
That does not change the fact I think they are wrong.
Do I tell them that? No; I don’t consider that tactful or productive. But, this is a forum. You debate and discuss issues. Since Mitt invited this debate, I don’t see the issue.
So long as you are not making fun of Freepers who are Mormons, I don’t know why this would be a problem unless you just are afraid of a little debate about a very controversial religion that considers itself “truth restored” based on what they advertise on television.
If they are the truth “restored,” obviously what does that mean — non-Mormons don’t believe the truth.
Do you want a president who believes most of the American people believe a lie and only Mormons have the truth “restored”? I don’t. This is not just an issue of the theology, it is an issue that we are dealing with a group that considers everyone else flat wrong.
If I have to vote for him, I will. But, he is not my choice.
Geez....Mitt did not bring up this debate. The left has been doing it for months and you and many other freepers around here are gleefully helping them out.
If it bothers your conscience, then don't vote for him. If you are actually in Kansas, your vote won't matter. If Romney loses Kansas, it is safe to assume that he is being overwhelmed in a massive landslide.
Just vote on the other elections and leave the Presidential line blank.
