It just creeps me out to see the kind of bashing he gets over where he goes to worship.
You have to wonder where that whole ‘freedom of religion’ thing disappeared to..... Anyway, thx for the reply
I don't like to see anyone bash anyone elses religion. At the same time...
Until 1978, Mormons did not allow African Americans to hold any position of authority in their church.
Further, on the issue of Mormon Proxy Baptism, many Christians and Jews are deeply morally and religiously offended.
Mitt Romney has been both a stake president and bishop in his church, so it's not just about where he goes to worship. He's been part of the hierarchy of his church.
It is entirely unreasonable to think that people (particularly African Americans and Jews, but also Christians whose faith are at odds with Mormonism) won't use that or other information to form decisions about Mitt Romney's character and worth as a candidate.
I can rattle off the faiths of more than half of all US Presidents. It has always been an issue. Why should Mitt Romney get a pass?

Seriously? Come on.
No one is saying that Mitt Romney can't or shouldn't be Mormon. But do you really expect any candidate anywhere to get a pass on what helps form their sense of morals and their decision making process?
