You described a high level of flexibility in the official Mormon stance on abortion, I don’t think that the Catholic church does that does it?

Wouldn’t an openly pro-choce Catholic Bishop, raised by what Mitt claims was an early pro-abortion Senate candidate called his mother, be widely considered and known as being in rebellion from the leadership of his church?

Romney in reality is not a devout Mormon, as evidenced by his using the institution of marriage and family to barter with sexual degenerates in order to obtain their support for his run at the mass governorship. Now LDS inc may give a duplicitous scumbag like Mitt Romney a pass ... but I don’t think so. Sadly, too many Mormons vote for this sort of duplicitous pondscum because he is professing Mormonism while not actually following even that religion!

I think you have a misconception about what a Mormon bishop is. He is not an official of the church and is essentially a lay minister. Romney cannot speak for the church. Thus the analogy to a hypothetical renegade pro-choice Catholic bishop doesn't work.
