No, but it legitimizes the Mormon church and will increase their growth (the Mormon church hasn’t grown in a long time, maybe two decades). It would be like donating money to a Madrassa or voting in a Muslim President . . . same thing. Look at the Mormon beliefs and history carefully before you say you can support a Mormon Presidential candidate. I think you will find they are a cult.

Did the LDS church in Massachusetts increase their numbers when Mitt Romney became governor?

I see. So which candidate currently running best epitomizes the faith you believe should be promoted?

Could you serve a bit of proof with this laughable statement.

There are some so-called Christian churches out there that do not in any way represent what Christianity stands for. I won’t name the denominations but some of you know what I mean.

The Church hasn’t grown in two decades? Huh! It’s the fastest growing Church in the US and booming overseas. Well over 13 million world-wide. Pretty big for a Christian “cult.” Oh, and it’s nothing like a madrassa. It teaches Christ’s Gospel, not Muslim ideals.
