It matters to me. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST IS GOD THE SON! “Ye shall know them by their fruits.” (Matt 7:16). Mormons are NOT Christians.
Wow. Just wow.
Don't know what fruits you're talking about, but the Mormons I know are damn fine people. Pleasant, helpful, modest, honest, kind, hard-working, generous, family-oriented.
Quite the opposite of some evangelicals I've had the misfortune to come across.
Thank you (see tagline). I matters to me too.
If some day the Republicans nominated a true conservative who happened to be Jewish, would you refuse to vote for him, and if so, why?
The reason I will not vote for Romney is simple. He is not a Christian. Remember the Clinton commercial during the last campaign. Something about ... do you want obama taking that phone call at 2 in the morning? I thought that was pretty clever. However, I am more interested in what happens after that phone call. When the president drops to his knees to ask God for help is God listening. If the president is a Christian I believe so. If he is Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu or (gasp) Mormon I think not. Does this make Romney some kind of cult follower? I don’t believe so. Does this make him a bad person? Absolutely not. Most Mormon’s I’ve met have been decent and fine people. I’m like many evangelicals across this country. The first thing I want to know about any candidate for president is is he/she a Christian. After that question is answered then we move to policy.
What if the presidential election were between a Mormon and a Muslim? Who would you prefer?
