What Huck said seems to be true according to the Mormon website
______
I think the question is more, how or why is this relevant to a presidential campaign in the US.
It is not difficult to point to any mainstream religion and suggest that this or that doctrine is just plain weird (e.g., virgin birth, rising from the dead, transubstantiation, to name a few that come to mind).
There would be no Conservatives or Republicans if that happened.
-—Why doesn’t she answer the question?-—
You didn’t read the article did you or did you? The very next line was:
“We believe, as other Christians believe and as Paul wrote, that God is the father of all,” said the spokeswoman, Kim Farah. “That means that all beings were created by God and are his spirit children. Christ, on the other hand, was the only begotten in the flesh and we worship him as the son of God and the savior of mankind. Satan is the exact opposite of who Christ is and what he stands for.”
But, I'm voting for President, not Lord Protector. My reasons for not voting for Mitt have to do with his being a flip-flopper and quite suspect on pretty much every major social issue.
You’d like to think so.
And Kim’s position in the LDS hierarchy is?
Huck’s record is being questioned. He thinks his strong point is his faith which he believes is also Mitt’s weak point. This was a clever move to bring the heat off his record and the debate back to faith.
Unfortunately for Huck, it’s also an incredibly slimy, deperate move.
Like evolutionism, which believes that life began as a sequence of chemical reactions of purely naturalistic origin, despite this contention violating several basic laws of chemistry?
It isn’t relevant. Mitt said he was a Mormon. Now Huck is trying to see if Mitt will weasel a little bit when backed into a wall. Mitt has a history of that.
I’m guessing Mitt is smart enough to know that Mormon theology will turn off voters so he will avoid answering any questions about it. Is that significant?
A Presidential race isn’t the time nor place to have this kind of a debate. Huckabee’s behavior is very disturbing.
Apparently the "divide-and-conquer" strategy is working.
By the way, the "values voters/social conservatives" adhere to the same social values the Founders did. They aren't the ones trying to change society's mores . . . they've been trying to preserve mores. (Which is a conservative sorta thing to do.)
She did. Read the whole statement.
Rich Lowry just said on FNC that Huckabee sounds like Obama when he criticizes GWB foreign policy,lol. I must say I like that Lowry and National Review picked my candidate to support.
Glenn Beck just did a number on Mike Huckabee this morning. Wants to talk about the issues, not about someone’s religion or if he is “religious enough” to be President. I think Glenn having Fred Thompson on his show yesterday has impressed Glenn! GO FRED!
Do you play a lot of golf or just hang out at the pro-shop?
He did 10 years ago. He chose politics over his "calling". He just uses his theological training as bait to attract the most gullible, which unfortunately there seems to be a lot more of than I realized. I would have expected most mature Chirstians to be more discerning.
I think it’s an obvious attack,and a really dumb one. I wonder if Dickie is behind it? Or why he didn’t let Dickie write that kind of crap. I think it’s the lowest of low attacks,especially when Mitt is such a decent man.
