Bishop Romney can give as much or little as he desires to any institution or cause.

More interesting, however, is the question of whether Mitt is in full keeping with The Law of Tithing. Rank and file Mormons are required to pay their church a full ten percent of their income. Many contend that this rule is often bent for chief Mormons with no flexibility allowed for the rank and file Indian Mormons. Others believe this is the main reason for Bishop Romney's failure to disclose his tax returns since he obviously fits into the former category.

As long as it’s his money he’s giving a way I couldn’t possibly give less of a rip.

This Mormon bashing thing around here is beyond embarrasing lately. There are plenty of reasons to oppose Romney. His Mormon faith is NOT one of them.

Yes this is the least of his short comings.. He is a Rhino Pure and simple. Giving to a church is a good thing. At least I used to think it was a good thing in America.. Now if we pray after a football game or give money to our church we are bad. FU USA! And I mean the Elites in this country. Who have ruined our moral fiber.. I hate lefties and all they stand for.
