Romney is a Mormon Bishop.

“What’s the difference?” is what I asked myself. And, honestly, I couldn’t come up with a fair answer other than, “there is no difference.”

Both are EX-governors and EX-church leaders.

I’ve never seen Romney stump for votes from a pulpit or church.

I’ve never heard Romney use any reference of his religion to garner votes.

Romney has had to defend his religion beliefs by Christians as being a cult, started I am sure by Huckabee followers.

Huckabee’s religious beliefs have not be questioned in terms of “integrity” but only whether he’s using those beliefs to gain support in the Christian community.

Those, wheather right or wrong, are the “differences” I see.

That’s the difference I see n terms of using their religion.

Well there is one difference in Romney and Huck’s church leadership. Romney served his church without being paid. He was a volunteer while paying 10% of his income to the church in tithes.

Huck was paid by his church to give speeches and such.

Also, Romney never spoke at or attended any conference to bash another person’s religion. Huck did.

So it’s not QUITE the same.
