I agree with your post. The president is not our pastor.
I would have to say there are only a couple of religions that would disqualify a candidate for me: Satanism and Scientology.
I choose these because of what they do to the person and teach the person to do to others.
While I believe LDS to be false, I don’t think it harms by design or is anywhere near the category of the two above.
thanks for your reply...
And Islam would NOT disqualify a candidate from serving? What does the Quran "teach [a] person to do to others"?
I could NEVER vote for a follower of Muhammed for any public office. NEVER.
Regarding Mormonism, I truly believe that Jospeh Smith simply made it all up, as did that other guy Muhammed mentioned above. And that the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints is as much of a "religious fiction" as is Islam.
Having said that, I could vote for Romney if he is the nominee. Hmmm, better stated, I _will_ vote for him if he gets that far.
At least in his speech above, he says that he will take his oath of office with a hand on The Bible.
What would B. Hussein Obama rest his hand upon?

I’d be interested to know what you think about this thread on a website devoted to harmed ex-Mormons:
