Would you vote for an atheist? Would you vote for a Muslim? Does the truth about God and man matter to you? Mormonism is worse than a mere cult because it purports to be Christianity in face of every historical definition. How can I trust a man who firmly embraces so profound a deception? Electing a Mormon President is not tolerance of Mormonism, it is a mainstreaming endorsement. As a Christian I believe that government officials are "ministers of God". A Mormon President would be a minister of a false god. I think Hewitt has it wrong. I don't fit into any of his categories. I will simply not be responsible for putting a cultist enemy of God between God and our nation regardless of the consequences. If you don't think your vote will be judged by the God who judges "every idle word", think again.
4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

Hm...?
Mormons believe in the Virgin Birth,and that Christ is the literal Son of God. They beleive that Christ calls all to repentance in His Name, and that salvation and eternal life is only possible through Him. They believe in the atonement of our sins by Christ, and literal resurrection of Christ. The uphold the New Testament.
Geeze! ...This looks like a walking, talking Christian duck to me?
Whether he is an atheist or not would not play into my decision. My vote is based on the person's positions on issues.
Does the truth about God and man matter to you?
Absolutely. But I'd much rather vote for a pro-life atheist than one who claims to be Christian but has no problem killing babies.

Then don't be a Mormon. I'm not one. But I wouldn't refuse to vote for someone merely because they are a Mormon. Anyone who does that is a loon.
As a Christian I believe that government officials are "ministers of God".
Indeed, they are. Read the bible. Even those who opposed Israel were chosen by God to do so. And when they weren't, God lead Israel to wipe them out.

Again, God uses the leaders of countries to accomplish His will. (See previous comment.)
If you don't think your vote will be judged by the God who judges "every idle word", think again.
Of course it will be. That's why I vote based on their positions on issues.

Romans 13:3-5 (King James Version)
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
Exodus 23
31 “I will fix your boundary from the Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River Euphrates; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you will drive them out before you. 32 “You shall make no covenant with them or with their gods. 33 “They shall not live in your land, because they will make you sin against Me; for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”
