You say you'd rather have a demonically deceived MORMON in the whitehouse?

Mind telling us WHY?


Well, first, as far as "demonically deceived" goes, Mormons aren't any more so than the majority of people who casually call themselves "Christian" or very large portions of the Israelites who made it out of bondage in Egypt to die in the desert because they were still slaves in their hearts and wanted to stay that way.

Second, Mormons, unlike commies and radical muslims, don't have a history of trying to destroy the United States. Both Communism and fundamentalist Islam have a totalist world view that seeks the subjugation or annihilation of any competing ideology. That is a central feature of their doctrine. Communists have murdered well over a hundred million people in less than 100 years and fundamental Islamists have been trying to destroy Israel and to attack the United States and Western civilization in general, but Mormons have exercised their control over a couple Western states through the political process.

If you can't tell the difference, then you've got way bigger problems than Mitt Romney.

Is this supposed to nullify the fact that MORMONs believe in a demonically delivered false religion?

Oh?

 


...the presidential campaign of Mormon Church founder Joseph Smith in 1844: “Challenging Democrat James Polk and Whig Henry Clay, Smith prophesied that if the U.S. Congress did not accede to his demands that ‘they shall be broken up as a government and God shall damn them.’

Smith viewed capturing the presidency as part of the mission of the church.
