Mitt Romney Converts to Catholicism ... (okay, not exactly)

Catholic Vote ^ | July 19, 2012 | Kathryn Lopez

What a weird statement to make, it makes no sense.

Are you kidding? It makes every bit as much sense as these claims of secret/impending Catholic conversion:
George W. Bush
Chief Sitting Bull
Mikhail Gorbachev
Adolf Hitler
Francis A. Schaeffer
Barack Obama

Reasonable questions.

She's published a book, I don't know if she has citations in the book or not.

This is not the first time I've heard of some of the ritual revelations like members taking the symbolic knife at the rituals.

It is the first time, that I've heard of Mormon's having an organization designed to help place Mormon's in government. But it doesn't surprise me.

Oh my, I’m really in a conundrum now...I’ve been outed!

[SZonian]

The knife was replaced by the hand and subsequently eliminated in the temple ceremony where one promised to kill themselves [slashing one’s own throat] if they ever revealed the temple oaths or ceremonies. Now they just damn you to outer darkness, a Mormon hell of sorts.

I suspect, like many companies and gov’t agencies, current employees who are Mormon may give Mormon applicants preference. The old “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.” gambit. But that is based solely on anecdotal evidence and my own experiences.

But again, without having access to her citations or other credible sources, her claims come off as paranoid.

>>“They’ve been trying since the beginning to get someone in the presidency, because they believe they have to establish their authority so when Jesus comes to Earth, the Mormon Church will take control of the government and the Mormons will be the government of God on Earth,” she continued. <<

I’d rather have a Mormon than a Marxist.

Thanks for the ping and post. Was not aware of that.

"What a weird statement to make, it makes no sense."

It makes as much sense as Jack Kennedy's "I am a Jelly Donut" speech. OK, OK, he was trying to say "I am a Berliner".

Romney's statement makes a lot of sense to me.

Mormons are preferred because they often have experience living outside the country, know foreign languages, etc, during their Heresy Work (missionary work) across the world. I read that the CIA usually accepts candidates from BYU very quickly, and that CIA allegedly has a relationship with the LDS when it comes to recruiting. This, at least, is what I’ve read in the past. It is not a new claim.

Whatever the case, Mormonism produces a very deceptive and vain sort of people. It’s obsessed with appearances, and so their missionaries are obsessed with appearances and obfuscation. That sounds like spook work to me.

Nice to see you still haven’t lost your innate ability to put facts together and make....well, whatever it is you “make.” Just as amusing as ever at least.

[al_c]

Ah ... now I understand your point.

[Not gonna take it anymore]

Thanks for posting this.

You know I looked and looked and I didn’t see: TOTUS

Ain’t it great?

I may actually have to donate. Yeah!

[Hegewisch Dupa]

it just needed context

Uh, no, it is much more than that. How we live affects our entire culture and, thus, our government and its policies. Our Founders made it clear that, if we abandoned religion, our republic would fall. Many people have learned the truth of that the hard way.

Good points about the foreign languages, knowledge.

Mormons have infiltrated the US Government for at least 40 years and influence the hiring of their fellows. The mormon church sponsors an employment service staffed by members FOR members.

Helping Members Find Employment

Organizing Employment Efforts

Priesthood quorums and the Relief Society are to respond to the challenges faced by unemployed members. Leaders should involve the entire quorum in responding to the needs of individuals who are looking for work. The ldsjobs.org site will provide you with information and tools to help you assist those who are working toward self-reliance.

Mormon business owners and government supervisors look first to their "priesthood quorum" or mormon friends or relatives when hiring.

Keep in mind the fact that every temple attending mormon including Mitt Romney has sworn this oath to the church.

Well, it is nice that at least someone stood up for the truth! Of course, you do understand that it is the loss of morality that is driving this wagon!
