For what it's worth, I have met many members of the Church (LDS), whose family life is also 'perfect.' It may be that their living system works better than most.

I stand open to correction because my observations are anecdotal, but in addition to avoiding alcohol, tobacco and caffeine, to attending to church duties many times weekly and to tithing 10%, members are rarely if ever recipients of government welfare in any form.

I have absolutely no problem with the Moron thing and Mitt.

In fact, I agree with you that they are generally better than average people.

I just worry about how the general population feels...wonder if there is some sort of prejudice that would interfere with his electibility??

That is my observation also. I have known numerous Mormons and found MOST to be forthright, honest, upstanding and beyond reproach in their lives as far as I could tell. Even those “Jack Mormons” who do dabble in tobacco, drink, etc. seem to be above average.

Just my experience in over 45 years of dealing with them on a daily basis.
