Know Mormons' beliefs before voting for them

In response to whether the public should vote for a Mormon for president, one should know what beliefs a candidate had.

Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman have Mormon roots and they have been vague about their beliefs and loyalty to the LDS church.

Mormon theology includes ideas like their priesthood brethren will become the government leaders, or future kings of the world, in a globalized theocracy, and that their male leaders will take over when a second coming of Christ occurs. They believe they are the pre-ordained leaders to rule over a coming theocratic kingdom.

Worthy Mormon males are temple attending, dressing in white with special learned handshakes, altar rituals, Masonic rites and gestures and do secretive activities different from normal society.

They believe they are the future gods of new worlds in a life after this one. They follow prophets with ever-changing doctrine and change their fictional "Book of Mormon" every time it is found to be un-politically correct.

Their women are taught they are good for breeding, to have large families.

A member of this cult is loyal to its church leaders and to whatever their modern prophets tell them is gospel, which changes at their will.

They claim to be Christian, but Mormon polytheism of many gods/goddesses in a hereafter, rituals that must be performed in their temples, garment wearing and works (not grace) that saves a person is different ideology.

It is debatable whether Mormons are Christians, and they have other scriptures special to Mormonism written by their leaders, not just the New Testament, like their Doctrine and Covenants and Book of Mormon.

To learn about them and their practices, beliefs and personal character will help us determine whether they are the future leaders of Americans. Or are they really stuck in their controversial past?

Yep, Montanas and Albertans had a war once. The Albertans threw handgrenades at the Montanans. The Montanans pulled the pins and threw them back.

Do you mean hatpins?

I could draw you a Canada with all the provinces sea to shining sea but I forget how they go...

I used to be able to...

Is it Brunswick Stew or New Brunswick...

Is it PEI or PIE

Here goes British Columbia, Manitoba, Alberta, Something, Ontario, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia

Something like that

I'm just going to crawl into a corner and weep uncontrollably for a few minutes.

Okay, and now:

Provinces: British Columbia; Alberta; Saskatchewan; Manitoba; Ontario; Quebec; New Brunswick; Nova Scotia; and the Cradle of Confederation - Prince Edward Island (well, really Charlottetown, but the island is shaped like a cradle) - and has even bigger and better lobster than Maine!!! Trust me, I know.

Check out New Glasgow Lobster Suppers website...

And let us not forget the territories: Yukon; Northwest; Nunavut. The True North strong and free (from Obama). This country oughta seriously think about attempting to draft Stephen Harper as a Republican candidate...

He can have Indiana's instead.

Utah's 95° is a gentle zephyr; Indiana's 95° is a fetid breathed monster, choking the vital energy directly from one's soul!
