Romney has failed on the following "Principles of Liberty":

Principle 15 - The highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free-market economy and a minimum of government regulations.

Principle 19 - Only limited and carefully defined powers should be delegated to government, all others being retained by the people.

Principle 20 - Efficiency and dispatch require that the government operate according to the will of the majority, but constitutional provisions must be made to protect the rights of the minority.

Principle 22 - A free people should be governed by law and not by the whims of men.

Principle 27 - The burden of debt is as destructive to human freedom as subjugation by conquest.

Would that make him a "moderate that will do nothing for freedom but mess it up"?

I haven't even touched on his flip-flopping in regards to abortion.

SZ, Resty, the biblical sovereign reflection of this principle in action is God giving the Holy Spirit to dwell in His people. The primary temple in the New Testament is His people, flesh and blood, not some building on a corner!

In the same way, Resty, why do you honor this principle when the Mormon god and Mormon "prophet" structure tends to dismiss this New Covenant principle?

So note, Resty, I have copied & pasted Principle 19 into this statement below (in Italic) -- and added to it as applied by the Lord's true church-at-large:
Only limited and carefully defined powers should be delegated to church general authority government, all others being retained by God's people, as they are indwelled by the Holy Ghost.
