“Yes, we all know about that prophecy thing, (that some Mormon will save the USA, or something like that)...”

What you are referring to is something the church has denounced as a fake. There are a number of second hand accounts of Joseph Smith saying something along the lines of the brethren of the Church being instrumental in preserving the constitution in some unspecified way, but no first hand account so we don’t know exactly what he said. None of the second hand accounts however talk in terms of one single Mormon doing this, only of the church as a whole so trying to link it to Romney is invalid.

Come on now. You guys got all antsy about it when Osama Bin Laden began talking about a "white horse" and you know it.

There's more than a koinkydink going on here.

Just like their brethren in the Church of the First Born, the Mormons dig on horses. Ours ~ referring to the ancestors ~ was the same as that of the Indians ~ the spirit came to them and said "cut the horse loose. follow the horse" and that's how a bunch of them ended up in Oklahoma ~ actually them and the Indians eventually ended up in the same spot.

I have a theory about the trail the horses took, but that's not relevant here.

ALL the horse prophecies are less important and grand than the believers think them to be. In any case, you could be less embarrassed about these prophecies since they really do exist ~ they are part of the folk tales that color the past and make it interesting. But these horses are still just horses and you know what folks who walk behind a horse are stepping into every mile of the journey.

You mean the “white horse prophecy”, fake.....hahahah
Denial, it’s been denounced, JS never said it - that’s what lds say to “outsiders”.
My considerably large lds family all beleive that Romney is the fulfillment of the WHP.
Before you ask, when they talk to me they tell me everything because I am viewed as a “primitive”.
