If the election were between Hillary and Mitt you would go third party which means you would be voting for Hillary. This is how we got Bill Clinton, remember? The Ross Perot factor.

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior, my personal Savior and I love Him with all my heart. He died for me to save me from my sins. And yet you hate my faith so much that you would not vote for Mitt Romney just because he is a Mormon. It is just so sad.

The person who posted this article said, “I hope we can stay within the realm of political commentary. If the thread veers into religious bashing, I will immediately request that it be moved to the Religion forum.”

There has already been some Mormon bashing here so I suggest the thread be moved. Thanks.

I think I’d like to give it the benefit of the doubt for a while; there is some good political dialogue going on here still. I hope that we can all get the discussion back to the topics addressed in the article.

I would like to say to you that while I do dislike your religion, I certainly do not dislike you. (I don’t even know you! :-)
We can get into a discussion about Mormon teachings if you’d like, but I must tell you that the likelihood that either of us would change the other’s mind is highly unlikely.
The true Gospel according to the Bible is not in line with Mormon teaching. That is not bashing, it is the simple truth. One can not accept one and simultaneously accept the other.
The Gospel according to the Bible lies in the belief that salvation is through Christ alone. No works are involved.

The question of Romney is one sincerely asked by the OP and sincerely answered by myself and others. I could give the PC answer, but the OP seemed to want an honest reply, so that’s what I gave.

HSM...never once said she hated your faith. That is a huge leap.

She posted an opinion..of Mormonism. An opinion that is widespread, like it or not.

fwiw-
