He answered all legitimate questions there are to raise and will not answer dumb, irrelevent nitpick doctrinal questions for the justifiable reason that if you were sincere in your question, you wouldnt ask a candidate, you’d ask your local LDS or other sect official/pastor/priest/whatever.
Such questions in a political race context - as has been shown on FR when this stuff comes up - divide people, and as Romney said...
“To do so would enable the very religious test the founders prohibited in the Constitution. No candidate should become the spokesman for his faith. For if he becomes President he will need the prayers of the people of all faiths.” - Mitt Romney
He DID answer your questions that he can answer. He did NOT answer it the way you want him to, and he knew that... that’s why he said:
“”There are some for whom these commitments are not enough. They would prefer it if I would simply distance myself from my religion, say that it is more a tradition than my personal conviction, or disavow one or another of its precepts. That I will not do. I believe in my Mormon faith and I endeavor to live by it. My faith is the faith of my fathers – I will be true to them and to my beliefs.
“Some believe that such a confession of my faith will sink my candidacy. If they are right, so be it. “ - Mitt Romney
So there you are. He gave his answer.
All many of us are asking is for Mormons to “own” their beliefs. It is OK to be heterodox. Just admit it. All in the name of truth in advertising.
