To: worst-case scenario

Mormons believe Jesus is a literal Son of God and do not believe he is a prophet. Mormons do believe in additional prophets where I believe Christians agree with the Jews that Malachi is the last true Prophet.

What about the primacy of the Old and New Testament? Do you think that Mormons believe the Book Mormon is the supersedes the Bible, or not?

The issue, finally, is whether you believe in Joseph Smith as a Prophet of God, and the Book of Mormon as Holy Writ, or not.

I don’t. I think that Smith was a charlatan, and that the Mormon Church is a cult. (It may be a cult that performs good works, but so do the Krishnas.) What really matters to me is whether Romney swears first allegiance to the Constitution of the United States, or to the ruling member so the Mormon Church. He is the seventh generation of one of the original seven followers; many Mormons believe him to be the fulfillment of the White Horse Prophecy.

I want to hear Romney tell us to whose dictates he would listen first. I’d ask the same thing of a Scientologist. Mormonism is the 19th Century Scientology.
