Romney wouldnt survive the exposure of the polygamy, racism and false religion aspects of mormomism...

His own father George Romney was the son, grandson, great grandson of a polygamist family...

Romney belongs to a religion that practiced and had a religious tenet of racism for more than 150 years...

Romney belongs to a religion that was invented by Joseph Smith a criminal and serial adulterer who wanted to replace Christianity with his own version of Islam...

The MSM would have a field day with any of these parts of mormonism

Romney went to Planned Parenthood open parties back in 1992 and his wife gave Planned Parenthood a check that year, too)

Polygamy is not as bad as gay marriage though.

But according to the God of the Christian Bible, they both are equally evil and sin...

They think of Mormonism like another flavor of Christianity, like Methodist or Presbyterian.

And yet the mormons dead dunked my ancestors who clearly had Methodist or Presbyterian on their death records into mormonism in order to make “christians” of them...

Polygamy is not as bad as gay marriage though.

Manslaughter is not as bad as murder.

Arson is not as bad as rape.

Burglary is not as bad as armed robbery.

See where I'm going?

Mormonism is Christianity what Christianity is to Judaism.

Polytheism vs. monotheism. I can see what Judaism and Christianity have in common.

Christians worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

They are both stink’n liberals. The other elected federal officials that are lds liberals have not hurt mormons. The only way they will hurt lds if people start to believe that lds are not the conservatives they claim to be. That people start believing that mormons are not what the appear to be.

I have a lot of problems with Huntsman and Romney, and none of them have to do with them being Mormons.

I'd vote for a snake charmer if he followed the Constitution and kept the fedgov out of things it shouldn't be involved in.

Christians worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

That would be nice if it were the case. But it is not. Christianity is Tri-une. And Christianity throws a god-man into the godhead to boot. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob worshiped HaShem, The Name, יְהוָה , a Singular Unity not a "multiple" unity.

What is meant regarding NOah that he was perfect in his generations?

I really don’t have the problems with Polygamy that I have with Gay Marriage.

Polygamy means more babies, and a few years after than, more workers paying into Social Security.

Gay Marriage is extinctionary. If everyone did that, there would be no humans in 120 years.

A good public policy argument can be made in favor of Polygamy. Can’t be done for gay marriage.

Sadly, there are enough people in our country who do not understand that Mormonism is not a Christian sect.

SAdly; most of THEM think they are CHRISTIANS themselves!

Answer: Well; in MY mind...

It will help Mormons by hurting Mormonism...More exposure of the craziness of the LDS is a good thing for all...

Another good succinct summary from you, Ejones.

It'll help...
* ...jack Mormons, as some may finally realize, "Yes, no wonder I became inactive from this religiosity! It's time to officially disassociate from Mormonism and to take a new view of Christianity..."
* ... Cafeteria Mormons, who may realize, "There's just no way I can continue to be embarrassed by some of these Mormon teachings...In the past when I've gone through the Mormon buffet line, I've just ignored these offerings. But the fact that the Mormon church even serves them up as something they expect people to swallow...Just wow!"
* ...new & young Mormons...who often haven't been exposed to all of classical Mormonism...the outright Mormon-"scripture" based racism...how eternal polygamy is STILL taught in the church (just postponed on earth)...blood atonement taught for over 20 years by the namesake of their leading university...the sheer contradictory statements made by their general authorities...

I really don’t like using religious argument to justify my points. I do like it when other people do. But a lot of people don’t.

I’m not an expert here.

Where is the bible quote that says polygamy and gay marriage are just as bad?

Polygamy has been a part of one culture or another throughout history.

Gay has always been frowned upon everywhere, except in collapsing civilization. Gay Marriage is completely new.

The Mormon Church will be raked over the coals by the Left.

And then by...

"...and after this; the judgement."
