Target: Romney

Sorry, but no. It is against Church Policy to hold political events anywhere on Church grounds, so your information WRONG. We support whoever we want, with no influence from ANY Church leaders. Get your facts straight before coming on here and spouting off your false thoughts.

I am sorry... This Great Country was founded under the laws and belief's of Jesus Christ and it has always remained the same. It is the idiot politicians that try to make new belief's of what our founding fathers wrote and minipulate their writings. Let's face facts. Founding fathers believed in Christ not any one else. Lets get back to what they found this country on.

The Mormon-hater philosophy of Huckabee, McCain and Evangelicals is akin to the scapegoating of Jews by the Nazis. The LDS Church does not follow the Nicean Creed, meaning they have a different view of God the Father, Jesus the only begotton Son, and the Holy Spirit, than do Catholics (big C or little c) based on the compromises made in the 4th Century and enforced on the Christian world at the end of a Roman sword. So what. Unitarians dissavow the Nicean Creed as do many other "mainstream" Christians, without being labled a "cult" or railed against at the pulpit by alleged representatives of Christendom. Look at Romney for the political hack that he is, not his religion. Come on, Harry Reid believes in all the same doctrine as Romney, but his politics, and his integrity, couldn't be more opposite than those of Mitt. How can Mormon-bashing be any more holy than radical Muslims chanting "Death to America and Israel"?

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I try to treat everyone with respect. I am scared to have a Person like Huckabee in office who is disriminating against others religon. If he were a true Christian he would not be acting the way he does. I cannot support someone for President who is not for all the people!! Most Mormons are very hardworking, kind, and generous. We believe in Christ. When you believe in Christ you treat others no matter their religon as Christ would treat them. Mike Huckabee has proven to be a canidate who has discrimination in his heart for religons he doesnt like. Heaven help us if he gets elected and has to make hard foriegn affair choices or meet with those he doesnt like their religious choices! Please all of you out there who put Mormons down, look at the facts on www.lds.org. There you will find what we believe in and what we do. Thanks, Kim

All I can say is after watching both Democratic Debates and the rpublican debates it was easy to determine which group stuck to issues, acted more civilly, and were more presidential. The Democrats easily showed that any of them would be way better than any of the republican candidates

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and I can assure you that I think for myself and make my own decisions. In fact, I my decisions are carefully calculated based on things I know and are not changed under social and "peer" pressure. If political decisions could be based on known "constants," it would be easier to make those decisions. Are people religious zealots because they have chosen to be moral and try to do as Christ taught? One should consider what the "Mormon" community has contributed to humanities throughout the world (not including how they help each other) and see what they have accomplished before judging them as "bigoted." There are many misconceptions out there - some because of ignorance and some calculated. You might be surprised what you would learn if you would talk to one of us.

Reading these comments from people about the Mormons, instead of sticking to the Presidential elections makes me weep for America. I pray not all people are like those attacking Romney because of his religion and in turn attacking the Mormon people. America was established so we would not have such things. Why can't other religions stick to teaching their own teachings and not have anti-Mormon classes in their Sunday Schools? Is this Christ-like? I don't think so, and anyone who thinks it is Christ-like to do such bashing needs to take a look at their so called Christian teachings. Again, this is politics, not religion bashing, stick to the issues.

Over a year ago I predicted that Mitt Romney would be our next President. The Democrats are imploding. The also-ran Republicans are snapping at each other's heels. Romney takes a drubbing from his own competitors and the public coprrectly assumes
those wannabees are frightened of him. The man acts Presidential, has class, remains articulate about his visions for the country, and does not over promise his skills.

So I still believe he will be President. Most of the hate Bush/hate everybody/ crowd will vote for Obama, but the greater American public will not. The young man needs more experience in politics, and will one day be President too.

But, for us, not yet.

I think its obvious whats going on here. Just like a reality TV show or any other competition where its every man for himself, at some point everyone starts to take notice of who has the best game or the best chance at winning and the weaker opponents band together to bring him down. I would bet that this was a conversation or even a meeting topic among McCain, Huckabee, Guliani and Thompson prior to the debate. Their smiles just about gave away all the fun they were having on their bandwagon together. The easiest thing for anyone to do during that debate was make sarcastic remarks or cute little comments about what others were saying. Mitt and Ron Paul were the only ones to not embarrass themselves in this way. Sure Romney points out facts about his competition, but he can back it up. And he also has an action plan for the issues, rather than just pointing out his thoughts or feelings about a problem he presents a plan to solve it. Romney brought his A-Game last night and the rest brought fatigue, stress, and frustration, enough said. Which one would you want representing you in a meeting room with the world's leaders?

I'd like to know how a religion who professes to believe in Jesus, prays to Him, and embraces His teachings can be called a "Cult" or non-Christian. It just does not make sense to me! Furthermore, how do you think that Politics/religion are "Controlled" by Fundamentals, Evangelicals, Etc. in other areas of the U.S.? Perhaps it is jus that there happens to be more of them in one area and isn't it just a human tendancy to be with what/who you are comfortable with? I wouldn't call that "Shunning". You can always find other friends that are more to your liking anyway... why would you WANT to be involved with them if you have nothing in common?

Those throwing mud at the Mormons should first ask themselves "am I being Christlike?" I have known many Mormons and they are the few Christians that actually practice Chirstian principles. I have never known one to denegrate another religion. Those claiming to be Christians would do well to first start practicing what Christ taught. From the so called "Born Again Christians" I have seen more hate towards other religions than any other group. So start practicing what Christ taught and quit attacking, Catholics, Jews, and Mormons. You say you believe in Christ, if so start acting like it and start practicing what he taught, it says in the Bible, "even the devils believe and tremble" and in another place "Judge not least ye be judged."
REPENT YE SINNERS!!!

I would like to know why it is unacceptable to elect a President because he is a Mormon. It was fine when a Muslim was sworn into office. Last time I knew there were no Morman's planning on anhilating the United States

First of all lets get the record straight acosio is not a christian or he would not be so unchristlike in his attack on the Mormons. I have known many mormons and they are the most Christlike people I have ever known. What is a Christian? Someone who professes a belief or someone who practices Christ like attributes? Even the Devils believe and tremble as the scriptures say and in another place judge not least ye be judged. I may not vote for Romney but it won't be because of his religion and I am apalled at such vicious attacks by want to be christians!!
