Romney Calls Attacks on His Faith Un-American
Right Views USA ^ | November 17, 2007 | Keith Anders

Posted on 11/17/2007 6:27:48 PM PST by Nathan_Hale76

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.

This country was founded on religious freedom. Romney’s right.

Inherent in the idea of religious freedom is the right of any person to question the validity of another person's religion.

Americans have the right to question Romney's religion. It is a weird religion with a dominant centralized authority and it is clouded in secret ceremonies with secret rituals and secret clothing and the religion itself has a long history of being discriminatory against blacks and in claiming that dark skin (of any kind) is a curse from God for being disobedient in a per-existing lifetime.

Americans not only have a right to question his religion. They have a duty to themselves and to their posterity.

Short attention span - it comes with the territory.

Don’t worry, we all have Grace available to us. It’s not too late for you either, FC.

I’ll be copy-pasting that wherever I see you for the next few weeks. Fair warning.

I would suggest you do not do that. FR forum guidelines prohibit dragging a flame war from one thread to another. Counter the poster's comments here on this thread.

You should have no problem with this experiment, it is as similar as I can make it to the Romney situation.

Wait'll the Demo/Repub debates get going, and the question is then asked!!

Better to deal with it in the primaries; don't you think?

MORE MIND-READING.

I do believe that he is a Restorationist, on those rare occasions that he attends church.

A young woman deciding to accept the theology of a religious organization that she thinks is the truth is not brainwashing.

A Christian's national allegience, whether Egypt, Israel, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Rome or America must always be subordianate to his allegience to the kindom of heaven.

While the kindom of heaven can abide tares, it will not sow or reap them.

Eisenhower was baptized, confirmed, and became a communicant in the Presbyterian church in a single ceremony on February 1, 1953, just 12 days after his first inauguration.[

Hey you Joseph Smith followers!

Better get someone to get baptized for this dead ex-President: FAST!

Maybe the heresy of being in the PRESBYTERIAN church can be washed away in the afterlife!

The Magic Underpants Song
By I.P. Freeley

Are you washed?
In the soap,
In the stain-cleansing soap of Maroni?

Are you sin-sick weary
Are you white as snow,
Are you sick of all this baloney?

It would take those who are thoughtless to joke about something that horrific done to a child who seems to be autistic.

The Mormonism amateur apologist failed to update his/her talking points on Eisenhower.

That’s a beautiful, beautiful young lady. Totally disgusting to bring her into this and a totally disgusting post. This is bigotry folks, not questioning one’s beliefs. And this is the topic of this thread.
