Whether Mormon, Catholic, Protestant, Faith Major Theme Rubio
yahoo.com/blogs ^ | Juen 19, 2012 | Chris Moody

Posted on 06/19/2012 9:13:16 PM PDT by RitaOK

Over the course of his life, Marco Rubio has prayed in Mormon sanctuaries, Catholic cathedrals and Protestant worship centers.

According to the book, Rubio put forth the same energy he directed to the LDS teachings to the traditions of the Catholic Church, and still considers himself a member of the Church to this day. As a young man, he attended services with his wife at Christ Fellowship Church in Miami, but never felt the same attachment that he did to the ancient church. After years worshiping in a Protestant congregation, Rubio says, a campaign supporter brought him back to Catholicism. "I love Christ Fellowship--I still do," Rubio writes.

His religion is of no mind to me.

His being an Amnesty Queen means I want him off the political stage NOW!

No more quislings pretending to be conservatives for me.

Either the GOP puts up conservative leadership in terms of the POTUS and VPOTUS or they can go pound sand.

And don’t bother with your fear-mongering ABOs.

My principles and my conscience is more important to me than false scenarios of impending doom.

I didn’t post to criticise his wonderings through the various religious traditions, but I didn’t know that Rubio was ever a Mormon attendee, and was struck that he is just now semi-settled. Maybe, sort of.

Romney wonders through the issues in a similar manner and that was more to the point of my “peas & pod” comment.

I am opposed to Romney flipping and flopping on the subject of immigration, criticising the Rick Perry approach, but now having just sent Rubio out to fish for exactly that.

Lacking any method for implementing reform, Obama blew them both up and their pander strategy with them, taking charge and taking the Hispanic support with him.

Popcorn for how Obama’s circumvention of Congress will play out, but no bets either way, here.

See post #6.

Your partially correct.

If you have an actual understanding of Mormonism, it should give you pause, if you are a Christian and not a Mormon, as to how Romney might act under certain circumstances.

Otherwise, all that matters is that Romney is a lying, left-wing, Progressive Liberal and no good is going to come from either an Obama or a Romney presidency.

Both will harm our country, it is just a matter of degrees with respect to how much.

Marco Rubio

born May 28, 1971 in Miami, FL (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)

Parents were
Mario Rubio born in Cuba, naturalized Nov. 5, 1975.
Oria Garcia born in Cuba, naturalized Nov. 5, 1975.

Parents were NOT US Citizens at the time of his birth (Does NOT meet the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)

Marco Rubio is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.

Marco's status is the same as that of Barry Soetoro, aka Barack Hussein Obama, who is NOT a Natural Born Citizen.

Well, as you are "obviously" an "authority" on Mormonism, hows about elucidating and edumacating we not so enlightened ones (Catholics and otherwise) over the "THREAT" and "DANGER" of this eeeevil, Religion and exactly how, Mittens might use it to "harm our Republic?"

Thereafter, I will be happy to engage in a little tete-a-tete over what I am very familiar with, and that is what our Fascist, Neo-Commie, Dear Leader has been--and continues to--embrace, defend, promote, support, etc. which is Islam/Sharia and then we can compare which is actually more of a "Defined" and "Self-Admited" threat to our Security and Survival as it (The Muslim Brotherhood) seeks to "DESTROY OUR MISERABLE HOUSE FROM WITHIN BY OUR OWN HAND."

The ball's in your court, if you care to play???

You’re right, on the “so what”, but it was news to me. It was just a post, not an indictment.

We have many resident Mormon experts, you probably know some of their names, are you curious enough about Mormonism to ping them?
