OK. So which candidate are you most like? Be forewarned that I do not vote for candidates based on their religion. I would never vote for Harry Reid. I’m on the fence about Mitt Romney. I’ve voted for Orrin Hatch for senator, but I wouldn’t have voted for him in the primaries for President.
I am somewhere between Thompson and Hunter, anti-abortion, pro Iraq war, for closed borders, pro-nuclear energy instead of ethanol, limited government, low taxes - where I differ from the standard conservative is that I’d allow recreational drugs but tax and regulate them (let the states throw fines at public nuisances). Christian Lutheran. About to make my first million, self made.
And I don’t have a problem with criticism of Martin Luther’s flaws, he didn’t try to pretend he was som God in the making, though he was undoubtedly more inspired and had greater impact than Joseph Smith. Luther translated the first German bible from Latin, and unlike Joseph Smith no one thinks he did it looking through a seer stone. He never tried to elevate his catechism to the level of a bible either.
Luther is a parallel to Joseph Smith and no doubt divinely inspired by the same God you claim to worship. So, one of the two is a fraud. Either the educated monk who never claimed to be a God in the making, or your crystal gazing seer whose BOM has not a pot shard of archaeological evidence, is a fraud as phony as a three dollar bill.
Your whole religion rests really on the divinity of Joseph Smith. Rotsa Ruck.
You right I like Orrin but in the “presidental run” I voted for GWB!
