Not sure about cru Cruz, but Rubio is a Mormon.
He says he isn't now.
Unclear what he is.
Catholic or Protestant Evangelical?
The Mormon church still has them on the rosters count on that; as I am sure the Catholic Church does also.
And here is from Wikipedia:
Rubio grew up in a family that was Roman Catholic, though from age 8 to age 11, he and his family attended The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints while living in Las Vegas, where his father worked as a bartender at Sam's Town Hotel and his mother a housekeeper at the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino. He received his first communion as a Catholic in 1984, before moving back to Miami with his family a year later. He was confirmed and married in the Catholic Church.
Ted Cruz is Southern Baptist according to Wikipedia
Vote smart.org, just says Christian
See my post #24
He was obviously baptized as an infant in the Catholic church. I am Catholic and was baptized when I was a week old.
Sorry but as I said in a later post once a Mormon always a Mormon as far as the church is concerned, same goes for Catholic so unless they kicked him out he still belongs to both as far as the churches are concerned. The Mormons are lax about removing the dead from membership roles.
Apparently Rubio frequents a Christian church in FL.
Portuguese are also bigots although quietly. My grandmother told me when I was very young that God created the Portuguese, she didn’t know about everyone else.
She lived her life believing that people other than Portuguese did not quite measure up. Unless you knew her well you never saw it but she did not expect the same level of behavior from others that she did from Portuguese. My aunts and uncles were all the same.
Just because his parents went to a Mormon church while they lived in Las Vegas, doesn’t mean they converted to Mormonism. I am Catholic and If I go to a Lutheran church, that does not make me a Lutheran. And since Rubio is Catholic he most likely attend Mass in a Catholic Church in Miami
Some crazy liberals refer to women in general, not women of any particular race or ethnic origin as “a minority”. In reality the only MAJORITY group is women in general. I pointed that out to one loony tunes liberal woman years ago and she told me that “minority” does NOT mean to be less than a majority, according to her it had a completely different meaning. I kid you not.
“Rubio’s parents baptized him Catholic and he is now a practicing Catholic, but when he was 8, his family moved from South Florida to Las Vegas, where his mother attributed the wholesomeness of the neighborhood to the influence of the Mormon church. Young Rubio was baptized again, this time in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He spent three years as a Mormon, upheld its teachings more enthusiastically than his parents, and chided his father for working as a bartender, a no-no for Mormons who abstain from alcohol.”

“Rubio and his wife Jeanette often visit Miami’s Christ Fellowship, a Southern Baptist congregation the couple appreciates for its strong preaching and children’s programs. Rubio has donated at least $50,000 to the church, which he attended almost exclusively from 2000 to 2004. But he now finds his religious home in Catholic churches in Washington, D.C., and Florida. In his memoir, Rubio writes that he will go with his family to Christ Fellowship on Saturday nights, and Mass on Sundays at St. Louis Catholic Church. His children have received first Holy Communion.”

Wouldn’t allowing your son to be a baptized Mormon indicate thet they at least believed in Mormon dogma? I can assure you that there are many RC churches in Vegas and have been for decades. Of course the RC church would have first claim on his soul. He however, as noted, was a true Mormon believer at the age of 8.
Get over it. He’s not a Mormon
OH GOD MY MIND’S EYE IS BLEEDING.
You owe me for the 15 years of therapy it’s going to take to get over that mental image!
