The Mormon boss I used to work for was one of the best bosses I’ve ever had. He would stay late and help me do menial paperwork tasks when he could have left at 5:00pm and had me stay very late and do it all.

I hear pastor Robert Jeffress preach on my car’s radio sometimes, and he’s a good preacher/teacher.

I don’t agree with him about not voting for a Mormon, though. A CONSERVATIVE Mormon would be a far, far better president than the last three democraps we have had.

I would pick a Mormon over a Christian if I were sure that the Mormon was more committed to smaller government and cleaning up the stains of corruption in D.C.

“I hear pastor Robert Jeffress preach on my car’s radio sometimes, and he’s a good preacher/teacher.”

Pastor Jefress is the guy who thinks the Catholic Church is a babylonian mystery religion becasue of ancient fish helmets or something, if I recall. So he is a wackadoo in my book. Rick Perry agreed, and condemned his wackadooism about the Catholic Church. I think it’s kinda funny though that a Christian preacher would basically agree with the LDS about the Catholic Church, but hey whatever.

“I don’t agree with him about not voting for a Mormon, though. A CONSERVATIVE Mormon would be a far, far better president than the last three democraps we have had.”

He called the LDS a cult, but I don’t think he meant it like how folks usually think of cults. He was sort of railroaded over the course of several days as the story of what actually happened unfolded at the media’s pace. It turns out he actually later said he would vote for Romney if he unfortuanately wins the nomination, so this article is wrong about that.

“I’ll hold my nose and vote for Mitt Romney.” He went on to say: “I believe a non-Christian who embraces Christian principles is more palatable than a Christian, and I’m accepting that Barack Obama is a Christian by his own statements, I would rather have a non-Christian who embraces Christian principles than a professing Christian who governs by un-Biblical principles.”

But that wouldn’t have been a story. I doubt if he would do that if a Satanist won, or a Scientologist. I don’t think he would vote for what is normally considered a cult in everyday usage.

I bet he would vote for a pro-life LDS over a pro-abortion Baptist though, in the primary or the general. Or a pro-life Catholic, although I don’t know what he thinks of Santorum or Gingrich. I don’t think it is shocking that a presumably conservative Baptist preacher would prefer his own religion over LDS, especially considering the political history of canidates involved.
