I will believe Romney’s religion is not a factor when posts attacking Mormonism are not allowed on the News/Activism section of FR.
This post definitely wasn’t posted with the intention of attacking Mormonism (as our Mormon members can tell you, I am pretty quick to defend them against unfair attacks).. if anything, it is to separate Romney the Liberal from the religion he claims to stand for..
Apostle Orson Hyde: “I discover that some of the Eastern papers represent me as a great blasphemer, because I said, in my lecture on Marriage, at our last Conference, that JESUS CHRIST WAS MARRIED at Cana of Galilee, THAT MARY, MARTHA, AND OTHERS WERE HIS WIVES, AND THAT HE BEGAT CHILDREN. All I have to say in reply to that charge [that Jesus was married and had children] is this --- they worship a Savior that is too pure and holy to fulfil the commands of his Father. I worship one that is just pure and holy enough "to fulfil all righteousness;" not only the righteous law of baptism, but the still more righteous and important law "to multiply and replenish the earth." Startle not at this ! for even the Father himself honored that law by coming down to Mary, without a natural body, and begetting a son; and if Jesus begat children, he only "did that which he had seen his father do." (Journal of Discourses, Volume 2, page 210; brackets mine)
They would unleash on him if he won the primiary, and we CHRISTIANS would not back him up. No Romney !!

You sound like a true “victim”.
If you haven’t noticed, everyone’s religions beliefs get attacked here from time to time.
Is Mormonism above criticism?
