No.
The Mormon Protective Association will make sure that all is well.....for mormons.
When Bishop Romney was carpetbagging Governor (and a bad
one at that) of Massachusetts, more than once
he called Utah to find out what to do.
He admitted that already.
So it IS a reasonable issue. Yes.
Everything about candidates core beliefs should be asked.
A persons religious leanings are the core of who they are.
If you want to know their core, it is important to know what they beleive.
Romney is a high level, temple worthy mormon, one more level and he probably would be part of the council of twelve.
If you do not know mormonISM you will not know who he is, mormonISM is his core.
Romney is who he is because of his mormonISM not in spit of it.
No.
First; a statement:
You have, I've heard, as a Faithful - I mean a Temple Worthy - MORMON, made certain VOWS in the Temple that are secret. I'm sorry, only SECRET to NON-mormons - they are considered SACRED to you.
Second; THEN the question:
Would you be able to discuss as to whether these VOWS would conflict in any way with your ability to carry out the VOWS that you would be making when taking the Oath of Office?
Thank you for posting this question. I would recommend a book by Tricia Erickson, who was raised in the Mormon Church and whose father was a Mormon Bishop, the same rank as Romney.
The title of her book is “Can Mitt Romney Serve Two Masters?” (subtitle: Why an Indoctrinated Mormon Should Never be Elected President of hte United States).
There ae many good books that expose the Mormon religion as the non Christian cult that it is, but this one speaks directly to the relevant political questions for today.
