There are 3100 comments to the CNN article. Here is just one example. "The next president of US may very well put his his hand on the Book of Mormons for oath of office. Are you guys going to argue with POTUS that that book is NOT the words of Gods?"
Side note...the article mentions the Catholic bishops' fight against Obama's insurance mandate. I couldn't find a single article stating that the mormon church is joining in this fight. Why?
The other is there was truly a hue and cry throughout the land about his Roman Catholic religion. People were sure the Pope would have an influence on the running of the country. It was said that old ladies in some protestant churches were openly weeping about an imagined RC takeover, etc. My Mom, and her quilting circle, was one of them.
I hope we can stay on the issues and ability to govern.
Mitt’s next-door neighbor Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Romney, for his Mass. oath used a King James Bible that his father used for his Michigan swearing in.
Where was the CNN insightful coverage of the increase in Islamic adherents in Washington, D. C., and how many of them were in positions of power under this president?
Where were in in-depth reports on how Islam is in a death-throws battle with Christianity, and that Obama was a ‘Christian’ who has never recanted his Islamic beliefs?
I’m not a big Mormon fan, but this is an out and out hatchet job on Romney by way of his religion, and this from a news organization that couldn’t have cared less if Obama was the son of Satan in 2008, and doesn’t care if he is now.
This thread is very disappointing. A lot of vile and bile and lack of respect for others.
FR used to be a lot better than this.
Better than Islamists who bow to Saudi Arabia 5 times a day, every day and never speak out against the human rights violations there or the death penalty for any lowly non-muslim who’d dare enter their segregated cities.
Let’s see, muslims have their man in the WH and people are worried about mormons?
A Mormon stronghold, maybe. A moron stronghold, definitely.
Lots of blacks are converting to Mormonism? :?
Mormonism is a secretive, media savy cult, and i think it is related to to Romney’s lack of openness, and thus his inability to related to others.
