There’s “official” Mormonism with its clean if severe living ideals, then there is nod-and-wink Mormonism. Mitt is more characterized by the second.
The Bishop is actually among the most devout, most devoted Mormons, a part of the most holy 15% of the members of Mormonism, a member of the inner sanctum, and of higher status than almost all of even that 15% of the most devout.

Yeah, just like the ‘Wink, Wink, Nod, Nod Catholics who look the other way as regards the likes of Pelosi, Biden, Sebillius, et.al, who routinely go against the tenets of their religion, to say nothing of the hoards of “secular progressive Jews.” who sell out their people in Israel ( as well as those here in the US). I will venture a guess that even the vaunted “Evangelicals” have non-adherents in their midst though they are too pious to admit it.
Mitt? Are you kidding? Mitt Romney is not a just a pew-sitter, he is a true blue believer. This is a man who truly thinks the silliness of Mormonism is the true gospel. Once Mitt is finished in politics, he is on fast-track to the First Presidency.
