Tricia Erickson: 'An indoctrinated Mormon should never be elected as President'

Are you of the opinion that a Mormon should never be elected President?

Yes, it is my opinion that an indoctrinated Mormon should never be elected as President of the United States of America. Indoctrinated temple Mormons (as Romney is) have experienced years of brainwashing and indoctrination and also have made covenants and oaths that they plainly cannot disobey. 

Mitt Romney and all temple Mormons have sworn to obey The Law of Consecrationin the secret temple ceremonies which states "You and each of you covenant and promise before God, angels, and these witnesses at the altar, the you do accept the Law of Consecration as contained in The Doctrine and Covenants (a Mormon book), in that you do consecrate yourselves, your time, talents, an everything with which the Lord has bless you, or with which he may bless you, to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormon Church), for the building up of the Kingdom of God on earth and for the establishment of Zion."

Ex-Mormon Ed Decker  reveals the penalty for disobedience that was made by Mitt Romney (and all temple Mormons) at the time he took out his temple endowments: The "execution of the penalty" for disobedience was demonstrated "by placing the thumb under the left ear, the palm of the hand down, and by drawing the thumb quickly across the throat to the right ear, and dropping the hand to the side."

We're in two wars against radical Islam. A man raised in a Wahhabist Muslim school should never be elected president. His loyalties would be (are) split.

I have no problem with a Mormon. As far as I know, they're not currently beheading or blowing up infidels. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I’d rather have an indoctrinated Mormon than an indoctrinated Moslem/Marxist.

CAIR should be dismantled as an anti-American, anti-Constitutional, conspiracy of saboteurs. Its leadership should be arrested and deported or exiled and its property confiscated and auctioned.

Its members should be on a terror watch list and a no-fly list.

I would rather be shot cleanly in the head than starved to death.

But then, if the choice is neither of the above . . .

Boy, CNN is really being hard on Mormons. You'd NEVER hear anything like this from CNN about a muslim terrorist. Muslim terrorists must be the good guys over there.

[verity]

It is becoming all too evident around here.

[RIghtwardHo]

In short, I agree. Romney’s loyalty is NOT with America when it is in conflict with the Mormon Church.

I will never vote for him even if I have to write in.

[massgopguy]

Did she mention anything about a Mormon being the Senate Majority Leader?

[WKUHilltopper]

Tricia...but you’re ok with your current Muslim?

[G Larry]

Some anti-Mormons are so bias, they’d rather have Obama serve a 2nd term....

[freedomlover]

I’m not that familiar with such Morman “rites”, if that is even the right word.
Did/do they exist? Would Romney have taken them?

[verity]

What is a Morman?

Mormons may not be physically dangerous like muslims, but can you trust the judgement of someone who is obviously brainwashed and believes in a pack of lies?

I'm not Catholic. Does that mean I could never vote for a Catholic, because I don't believe in praying to the dead?

How about a Scientologist? Would you have a problem with a wacky Scientologist having that much power over the rest of the world?

I'm not a Scientologist, either. I'm not an atheist, either. Does that mean all I can vote for is a Baptist?

Muslims are killing people en mass. Voting for a Muslim, to me, would be suicide, because his loyalties would be split between protecting the U.S. or protecting the Muslim terrorists.
To me, anyone who believes in the God of Abraham is better than one who does not, but that's just me.

[Turtlepower]

Some mormons are so squishy, they’ll vote for a liberal RINO like Romney just because they share the same religion.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I’m not that familiar with such Morman “rites”, if that is even the right word. Did/do they exist? Would Romney have taken them?

Don't know, don't care.

All I know is that America was founded by people fleeing religious persecution.

"I’d rather have an indoctrinated Mormon than an indoctrinated Moslem/Marxist."

Why have either when there are probably thousands of qualified American Citizens willing to servce who can govern the affairs of the nation without causing all the doubt and stress to the rest of us? Why should an election be handled like a three-ring circus?

The ones who are truly qualified are those that you would have to drag to Washington in chains, kicking and screaming and nailed to the chair in the Oval office.

Sort of.
