Mitt Romney called attempts to undermine him by questioning his Mormon faith "un-American" as he spoke to reporters in Nevada yesterday. Romney was specifically responding to reported "push-poll" phone calls being made in Iowa and New Hampshire, in which the calls reportedly begin as opinion polls but turn into statements and questions designed to highlight and cast doubt on Romney's Mormon faith. Here is what Romney had to say.....(Video)

It is like going to someone and saying, Look, we can work together, but only if you will first admit that you are ugly. Not quite...
It's more like:
Look, we can work together, but only if you will quit trying to tell me how beautiful you are."

It was the untruths that were foisted in the push polls ...Just what WERE the untruths?
I've not had access to what was actually asked.

Both books are considered to contain the word of God and one is not favored over the other.It appears the founder of your organization disagrees.
Oh... in my BoM 1981 edition, on the page with the introduction (4th sheet from front) has these lines...
"The record is now published in many languages as a new and additional witness that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and that all who will come unto him and obey the laws and ordinances of his gospel may be saved.
Concerning this record the Prophet Joseph Smith said: "I told the brethern that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book."
Then I find, just 4 pages past that, under A BRIEF EXPLANATION ABOUT THE BOOK OF MORMON, I found this at the bottom of the page...
About this edition: Some minor errors in the text have been perpetrated in past editions of the Book of Mormon. This edition contains corrections that seem appropriate to bring the material into conformity with prepublication manuscripts and early editions edited by the Prophet Joseph Smith.
Interesting!

Why is it that when a Mormon attempts to define Mormonism that it is somehow viewed as a distortion? I don't think that this is a problem.
THIS, however, is...
"When a Mormon attempts to define Mormonism AS CHRISTIAN that it is viewed as a distortion!"

I went to Catholic school for 12 years (1-12) and had many discussions and debates about different religions during that time. Not once was there a reference or statement from the priests or teachers that Mormonism was a cult.SOMEone must have been asleep on that day.

Elsie, I really wish you would take your personal mission to another thread. Thank you.

Elsie, this is a discussion about freedom of religion in the United States; it’s not the religion thread. Thank you.

Pope Boniface VIII Issues Unam Sanctam (1302)
Historians consider the Papal bull Unam sanctamwhich proclaimed that there is no salvation outside of the Churchto be one of the most extreme statements of Papal spiritual supremacy ever made. It arose from the Pope's feud with Philip the Fair of France, in which each attempted to prevent the other from receiving money from taxes, and it highlights the conflict between temporal and spiritual authority in the Middle Ages.
If a religion didn't think IT was the way, it would not exist.
We've had Catholic presidents...Doesn't the Constitution say that we get to have religions that others do not agree with?
