One thing we know for certain, based on direct observation, Romney and Huntsman are RINOS!

what does the fact of a candidate not being Christian have to do with voting for a conservative?????I would vote for a black jew in order to remove zer0bama the Marxist...

I would vote for a Mormon....

I will not vote, however, for Mitt Romney and not because of his religion...but because he is a RINO sc*mbag who was the architect of Obamacare.....he is probably the only republican I would stay home for in 2012...or at least vote third-party....

" . . . and they have been vague about their beliefs and loyalty to the LDS church."

MMmmmm. Probably because they have been out into the wider world and are not all that loyal. Call it secularization, sophistication, or agnosticism, or whatever you will. But, when was the last time you saw Romney, Huntsman, or Harry Reid coming out of an LDS church? Do they even attend? Against that backdrop, consider Obama's steady attendance at the church of Reverend Wright.

Know any candidate’s beliefs before voting for them. Duh.

What is your stand on the right to bear arms?

What is your stand on abortion?

What is your stand on socialized medicine?

Etc.

Etc.

There is no danger of Mormons achieving a working majority in any branch of government any time soon. I am less concerned about the upfront Mormon who practices his religion (and whose political application in the political sphere in actual law is largely decent) than in the secular atheist/humanist who doesn’t even realize of doesn’t care that he is forcing his worldview into everybody’s personal life.

It is no worse to be a polytheist than to be a pantheist, atheist or deist.

Traditionally-minded Catholics, conservative Christians of all stripes, practicing Mormons, observant Jews and non-denominational theists with a good grounding in natural law all have a deep interest in undoing the radicals who explicitly started their takeover in the 60s and are continuing it to this day.

Absolutely not.

They are polytheists and therefore CANNOT be Christian.

As I have posted here before, I once heard a Mormon elder explain that “Earth’s God” was sent here by “Twelve other gods.”

This brouhaha over Mormonism reminds me of a similar false flag religious issue from 1960.

is anyone out there old enough, or well informed enough, to remember the stink that was raised about jack Kennedy’s religion? There were several adds, print and radio, that more or less stated that if he became President jack Kennedy would be taking directions from the Pope.

To me all religious activity should take place at home, behind closed doors, and in the dead of night because it is one of the most personal activities that a person can indulge in. How else can this nation survive?

Isn’t it the Mormons who claim that Jesus and Satan were brothers?

And John F. Kennedy will do whatever the Pope tells him to if he gets elected.

I wouldn’t be inclined to vote for Romney, even if he were an evangelical Methodist. A progressive Republican is a progressive Republican, and they are worse than most Democrats. ...Dominionism bothers me, be it from Mormons, Muslims, Masons or Christians, and it doesn’t matter who is running for office, it pays to know a little about the forces that motivate them. Mormonism isn’t an absolute roadblock to my vote, but it is definitely an obstacle that a Mormon candidate would have to overcome. Give me a genuine conservative Mormon against a liberal Democrat satanist, or progressive-Republican Christian, and the conservative gets my vote. ...As spiritual matters go, there are many bad ones in politics. It’s a minefield out there.

Know Mormons' beliefs before voting for them

I don't think you have to worry.

If Mitt Romney is the GOP nominee, or if Huntsman is the GOP (or Obama's) VP, the MSM will conduct an extensive, 24/7 x10 week exploration of LDS beliefs, doctrines, and covenants.

By election day, there will even be Mormons scratching their heads, saying, "I never knew the church taught THAT!"

There are two religions I could never vote to support. One is Satanist the other is Islam.....but I repeat myself.

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.

 
Don LeFevre, a past spokesman for the church has said the church,
 
 "...strongly advises its members not to affiliate with organizations that are secret, oath-bound,
 or would cause them to lose interest in church activities."
 
[Salt Lake Tribune Section D1, Monday Feb. 17, 1992]
 
 
There goes all the Temple Recommends!

They would not listen, however, but persisted in their former practices.
Even while these people were worshiping the Lord, they were serving their idols.
To this day their children and grandchildren continue to do as their fathers did.
 
 2 Kings 17:40-41

Generally, I guess I’d rather have a Mormon who loves, and is committed to preserving, the Constituion than a Christian like Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton.

BTW, I am so NOT going to vote for Romney. Waiting for Sarah...
