Tant, not many people are brave enough to voice their concerns about Mormonism publicly. If indeed there is a great concern about Romney’s Mormonism you likely won’t hear about it from many people.

I’ve put myself out front. I am honest enough to openly state that I believe Mormonism is a corruption of Christianity, and that Mormonism has a habit of changing and obfuscating it’s positions, history and doctrine. That stance doesn’t make me a bigot or a hater, but I have been denounced time, and time, and time again as one.

This issue will stay just under the surface. I doubt if most people in politics really understand how it is frothing and fomenting and ready to undermine Romney’s election. Some of us are trying to stop the Republican party from committing suicide on the alter of Mitt Romney. It takes bravery and committment to do so.

That’s all well and good, but what do you think about the central thesis of the article - that legitimization of Mormonism (and a subsequent spike in growth of the LDS Church) will not be a result of a Romney presidency?

Why is it an issue then for you.

Guess there are a bunch of bigots and haters somewhere then.

Some of us are trying to stop the Republican party from committing suicide on the alter of Mitt Romney.

But you aren't a bigot or anything...

It takes bravery and committment to do so.

Well, bless my soul...mommy's little Cusader. By the way there, Richard the LionHearted, what do you think about Romney's economic plan?

This is easily proven false, a simple Google search on "+Mormons +Wrong" yields 1.3 million hits.

If indeed there is a great concern about Romney’s Mormonism you likely won’t hear about it from many people.

Again, this is easily proven wrong, search FR for Romney threads, and see how many have people complaining about Mormonism.

I’ve put myself out front. I am honest enough to openly state that I believe Mormonism is a corruption of Christianity,

If you always stated that that was just your opinion, things would be very cordial between us (Mormons on FR and you), you often try to state this opinion as a "Fact".

and that Mormonism has a habit of changing and obfuscating it’s positions, history and doctrine.

Everyone who has seen you on a thread on MMM knows that you are a descendant of John D lee, and that that colors your vision there (no pun intended).

That stance doesn’t make me a bigot or a hater, but I have been denounced time, and time, and time again as one.

These stances here are not what has gotten you denounced, but other things you have said have gotten you so labeled, sometimes unjustly so.

This issue will stay just under the surface.

Unless those who oppose the church see an opportunity to bring it up...

I doubt if most people in politics really understand how it is frothing and fomenting and ready to undermine Romney’s election.

But should it?

Some of us are trying to stop the Republican party from committing suicide on the alter of Mitt Romney.

Nice religious connotation there, see how come people think you are over the top?

It takes bravery and committment to do so.

Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back, it might impair your ability to post.
