Is it important to now what Romney was taught to beleive - and believes still...and grew up to teach others as a leader in the church? I don’t know. We’re not voting for the Bishop of the United States.
But we can get an insite into what these ‘Godless” people believe - out of their own mouths they are known?

Maybe you Freepers are as smart as Colofornian? Maybe you can make up your own minds.
What is posted is from the leaders mouths, what I find curious is that apparently or it appears that, you are unwilling to accept their (lds leaders) own words.
Many people who post to expose Mormonism are former Mormons, or have family trapped in Mormonism, we know the words of the leaders, we know the experiences of Mormonism - simply put we know Mormonism.
Mitt Romney is as high in the Mormon cooperation as one can go without being one of the twelve.
His family goes back to the foundation of Mormonism.
Romney has been groomed for this moment in time.
My Mormon family members believe him to be the fulfillment of prophesy.
Another good idea!!
In conclusion let us summarize this grand key, these Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet, for our salvation depends on them.
1. The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything.
2. The living prophet is more vital to us than the standard works.
3. The living prophet is more important to us than a dead prophet.
4. The prophet will never lead the church astray.
5. The prophet is not required to have any particular earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject or act on any matter at any time.
6. The prophet does not have to say Thus Saith the Lord, to give us scripture.
7. The prophet tells us what we need to know, not always what we want to know.
8. The prophet is not limited by mens reasoning.
9. The prophet can receive revelation on any matter, temporal or spiritual.
10. The prophet may advise on civic matters.
11. The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich.
12. The prophet will not necessarily be popular with the world or the worldly.
13. The prophet and his counselors make up the First Presidencythe highest quorum in the Church.
14. The prophet and the presidencythe living prophet and the First Presidencyfollow them and be blessedreject them and suffer.
I testify that these fourteen fundamentals in following the living prophet are true. If we want to know how well we stand with the Lord then let us ask ourselves how well we stand with His mortal captainhow close do our lives harmonize with the Lords anointedthe living ProphetPresident of the Church, and with the Quorum of the First Presidency.
