BBC's "The Mormon Candidate"

Mormons have outlawed Polygamy since 1890. Try to keep up.

that's just great outlawed Polygamy. There it is a Federal law you can cross over the border without documentation. And not that I wanted associate these two different crimes as in the same class my point is pass a law big deal, if you don't enforce them looks great on paper and on TV to support your case and this information can be depending on desired outcome spewed


Mormons are the majority of the state you think for one moment they don't run the state. now I can only surmise without getting too complicated that the mormon church is a business flying under tax-free exempt status that runs the state pretty much ,now apply this to the show I don't know very much about running a $40,000,000,000 business and every time I try to get information and research on what the hell's going on inside a business for investing. They may cooperate but don't run a state,

But this church affecty runs the the state and is running it like a business I can imagine
But they can keep most of what going on ,suppressed would you not to think and as low keyed as possible is not a rational thinking, an I can't recall all the details but did one go to jail last year jail

What the hell are you babbling about?
 
I don't expect Europe to entertain a truthful and honest assessment of a religion that began in America. What will be more important than the pecularities of a religion are the values that religion represents. All religions have beliefs and rituals not shared by other religions. If it was a muslim, would libs say that the muslim will pass laws mandating halal kitchens? No.

The controversy today is not in the beliefs of a religion, but the values that religion represents and how much are those values practiced by the candidate. That's why Christians, Jews and Muslims will vote for Romney who believes in the traditional family, rejects abortion, will not promote same sex marriage, and will protect religion from attack.

I'll have to ask my friend who relocated her business from Nevada to Utah last year to take advantage of a more business friendly environment.
 
Some how today ONLY Romney's religion matters.

I think that is a very poorly thought through comment.

Religion matters when the person is a member of a religion we know less about, or one which is less mainstream. That's both natural and appropriate for anyone who wants to hold the keys to a nuclear arsenal, IMO.

Sir I would like to address the statements that I read in this post. If that is OK if not do not read any further in this post I will spare you difficulties

First I feel all religions are fair game that politicians declare, and I will not accept no comment, and I'm partial to the ones that state that its all nonsense, but my friends and family or my community that I associate with may or may not feel it's a requirement for acceptance. I could go on for an extremely long time explaining every nuance as why on the subject. But I hope I was pretty clear so far,

I apologize for inconvenience this may have caused please move on to the next post
And think you
 
I agree. Where is the scrutiny about Obama's affiliation with Rev Wright? Are you kidding me. This Liberal media did very little pieces in reference to this but they focus on Romney's wholesome, faith based religion. Some people need to do research more they communicate. Learn more about the religion. Obama was affiliated with a extreme LT wing, radical racist in Wright. Obama and his family to not practice religion on a regular basis. Obama, has written off the Middle Class and will continue to cripple us if re-elected. Obama has made underhanded comments as in: We will do this after I get re-elected, lets wait until after that, then I will make a deal with you. Paraphrased Obama's words. Look it up. Obama promised to cut the dedicate while in office, "If I can't do that, I am a one term President" His words. Obama's Vice President has clearly, by example, showed his true colors. Here we are almost four years into his Administration, the middle class, suffering financially, Most Americans are suffering financially. If you are doing better than you were four years ago, feel free to vote for the current administration. If you desire "real" change. Vote to end extreme taxing, socialist agenda, former Administration tax cut ending, more and more Mean spirited campaigning and a leader, if you will, that is more condescending, mean and just plain selfish than someone of his status should ever be.
 
Religion didn't matter in 2008. Obama having a hate minister as his mentor wasn't relevant. Some how today ONLY Romney's religion matters.

When fear and hate is all you got and you can't run on your record, you resort to this lowball techniques.

"No no no, not God Bless America.. God da*n America!"


Wonderful spew,
On this point I will concede the rational concepts about respecting individuals is what America should be about this petty self righteous necessity to practice what we spew with their slogans are disgraceful myself I'd take the words by our founding fathers as in perfect and out of date but I can understand the concept of individual freedom is truly very simple and we have to go around and around spewing on it one with clarity on intent the other justifying authority to impose their nonsense will on others than a rain the slogan freedom that's just great

If you do not like it here, Move to another country or get off your rear and do something about it. America owes you nothing. You owe it to yourself and any other people you influence to set a positive example.

I'd say there out in the middle of nowhere, and the tax rate would be lower / around 7%

But if your tax free cult is running the state and as a business i am pretty sure they can pass legislation that gives them tax-free exempt on any of their enterprises etc.
 
Well, here are some things that I learned about Mormonism from a couple of specials that I've seen on the news.

1. They don't believe Jesus was born to a virgin.

2. They have a mandatory tithe of 10 percent of your gross income, which is set by the bishop of your church after discussing your finances with them. Oh yeah.......Romney was a bishop for a time.

3. Those tithes that a person is required to pay go towards buying food for the needy and those down on their luck, which is stored in large wharehouses. Access to these places is approved by the bishop who also gives you a shopping list that the store will fill. The whole setup for this thing sounds pretty socialist.

Are Mormons "real" Christians? Dunno, but other Christians may have a problem with the fact that Mormons believe Jesus was conceived in a more "normal" fashion.

1. once again, a complete and utter lie.
2. Are you that ignorant of the scriptures? Tithing has been a commandment from God since before the days of Abraham.
3. ignorant of socialism now?

You think other Christians have a problem with Christ being the literal Son of God?
 
Actually, I watched this today...

Some interesting points I liked.

First, it was a British guy doing it because the American Media wouldn't have the balls to offend the LDS by asking perfectly sensible questions. There was some of that typical, "You Americans are sooo stupid" kind of patronizing.

There was a very interesting section about how the mainline LDS go after Polygamist Splinter groups, shunning them and even forming a committee to keep an eye on them. This same committee keeps an eye on Ex-Mormon apostates. The way it is described, you'd have to really be worried about the notion of Romney getting control of the CIA, FBI and IRS to harrass people the LDS don't like.

I think the most disturbing thing for me was the whole notion of "Shunning". When someone leaves the Church, their friends and family members are required to disassociate themselves from them. One guy who said that he left, came back and left again said his Bishop showed him a file they had on him when he was an apostate and it was an inch thick.

Now, as a young man, I turned my back on the Catholic Church. Most of my relatives are still practicing Catholics and a couple of them are even employed by the Church. That the Mormons do this to their own families is kind of disturbing.

A lot of ex-Mormons, including Park Romney (Mitt's second cousin and you can see the family resemblence) call Mormonism a cult. They also featured Peggy Hayes, a woman who Mitt tried to give up her out of wedlock child and used his authority as a Bishop to do so....

I hope America wakes up and this gets wider play.
 
You think other Christians have a problem with Christ being the literal Son of God?

I think they probably have a problem with God and Christ being two separate entities, which is what Mormons believe but most Catholics and Protestants don't.

I don't have a problem wtih this, any more than I would have a problem with an argument between a Greek and a Roman over whether Jupiter and Zeus were the same diety....

But I could imagine these arguments got quite heated back in the day.
 
I think electing a Mormon would be the closest our country has come to electing a Non-Christian to the highest office in the land. I take that as a good thing, and I think it would be a first step to making other denominations viable candidates.

Well, I don't, really.

I think the MOrmons are just sufficiently scary in their lack of respect for the Separation of Church and State and their general paranoia that putting them completely in charge would be kind of dangerous, actually.

Now, admittably, their history has no doubt contributed to their paranoia. They were chased from one state to another after getting caught in various scams and scandals...

But honestly, MOrmonism is Scientology plus 150 years...
 
Wow you better go get educated on the Mormon religion. Why was Obama's religion not important in 2008 or now?

I'm not interested in getting a master's degree in nonsense my interest was getting a simplified brief and update about this religious cult don't get me wrong about these individuals with my direct language but god does not exist and these story are made up by man thousands of years ago as a mechanism to control population. It's a great game grow up.

As for Islam I has the same exact view it's nonsense but this religion and they have a small percent of absolutely crazy fanatical murderous individuals and a and all the same baggage,


I interact with Mormons and Islamic frequently and tell them there's no god some or Mohammed whichever one it happens to be on the front with what I think,
they are nice people as these people recognize personal choices and if they flat out don't reject based on bigotry then they know what I think we have a clear understanding

I feel you have you have a need to masturbate because you feel Islam is more important than any other nonsense, the president has a religion banner I think all the other ones did to there are millions of voters that voted for him after the terrorist attack that feel satisfied he not an extremistsm, and that prophetic woman with Mccain he an arab stuff gee
Grow up and get over it

The Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints does NOT support nor condone Plural marriages. Has not done so since the early 1890's. No underage wives either. The first lesson by a missionary is to teach you about Joseph Smith and the restoration.

You have everything wrong, your source is wrong.
 
Neighbors of mine are Mormon. Own a steel fabrication shop down in Roswell, Ga. Family business for 60 years with the father retired.
Will not find more honest, genuine and hard working folks anywhere.
Lots of negative wrong stereotypes of different folk I have heard over the years such as blacks stink, Polish are stupid, Jews are selfish and stingy, women should know their place, gays are immoral and perverts and Mormons want to take over the world.
