Glen Beck Vigorously Insisting Mormans are Christians.
ROCKLOBSTER

Posted on 02/22/2012 3:28:43 PM PST by ROCKLOBSTER

This morning Glen Beck was discussing "what is a Christian" and used the full title of the LDS Church as proof they are Christians, not some whacked out cult based on a modern day "prophet".

He also spoke of how Soros thinks of himself as a god.

As a disclaimer, every member of that church that I've ever met was a clean living, humble and generous person...but that doesn't make them Christians.

Thank-you, I am also very tired of these threads. Why should any persons
faith be better than another’s. Our American culture is in a shambles and
as long as someone’s faith does not teach hatred GIVE IT A REST!!!!!

My FRiend, I am not a Mormon. I think they’re gravely mistaken to the point of heresy, too. I’m not defending them.

" You sure have a lot of time for posting snarks about people who don’t believe just the way you think they should. All this research, finding and posting these excerpts, making little cracks and jokes, highlighting the words you specially like, finding the flaws in other Freepers’ thinking—this must have taken hours and hours. And here we are the next morning, and you’re still at it. It makes me wonder why you’re so obsessed with Mormons, and with the incorrect thinking of the rest of us. Might be a good idea to devote some of that time to prayer instead. "

Tell me something I don’t already know
I know that you can’t stand these things I’m preaching in the streets
But how can I contain the truth I hold inside
With all the hurting people that I see so I don’t mind
Putting up with you, and all the things you say
I’m not about to stop or even change my ways

[CHORUS:]
There’s nothing you can say
That will take me away from this life
There’s nothing you can do
To shut me up when I’m speaking the truth

(to shut me up, to shut me out when I’m speaking the truth)

You may not like all I have to say
But you can’t prove that everything is filled with empty words
I know my life and inside how I’ve changed
A testimony to the truth I speak, so I don’t mind
Putting up with you, and all the things you say
I’m not about to stop or even change my ways

Mitt Romney Used Polls to Change His Stance on Abortion in 1994

When he challenged Ted Kennedy in the 1994 U.S. Senate race, Mitt Romney used polling data to determine that he would run as a pro-choice candidate while remaining personally pro-life, according to a new book by Boston journalist Ronald Scott.

The Washington Examiner revealed the moment in Scott’s book:

According to Scott, Romney revealed that polling from Richard Wirthlin, Ronald Reagan’s former pollster whom Romney had hired for the ‘94 campaign, showed it would be impossible for a pro-life candidate to win statewide office in Massachusetts. In light of that, Romney decided to run as a pro-choice candidate, pledging to support Roe v. Wade, while remaining personally pro-life.

According to Scott’s new book, Mitt Romney: An Inside Look at the Man and His Politics, Romney traveled to Salt Lake City to meet with Mormon church elders in November 1993 to lay out his public position on abortion. Some leaders were not pleased by his position, Scott reports.

Romney stuck with his decision. In an October 1994 debate, Romney said he believed that abortion should be “safe and legal” and that Roe v. Wade should stand. He added, “And my personal beliefs, like the personal beliefs of other people, should not be brought into a political campaign.”

Sen. Kennedy seized on his stance: “On the question of the choice issue, I have supported the Roe v. Wade. I am pro-choice. My opponent is multiple choice.”

Romney responded, “I have my own beliefs and those beliefs are very dear to me. One of them is that I do not impose my beliefs on other people.” He then told the story of a family friend who passed away from an illegal abortion.

(Video of the debate above via Youtube.)

Justin Elliott of Salon.com reported that the woman in question was Ann Keenan, the sister of Romney’s brother-in-law, who died in 1963, a decade before Roe v. Wade was decided.

After losing to Kennedy in a landslide, Romney campaigned as pro-choice again in his successful 2002 gubernatorial campaign. He said that he supported state-funded abortions for low-income women in a 2002 Planned Parenthood questionnaire.

In a 2005 Boston Globe op-ed, Romney came out as pro-life after vetoing a bill to increase access to emergency contraception.

While Romney has denied charges that he flip-flops on issues, Romney campaign spokeswoman Gail Gitcho told MSNBC that abortion is the one substantial issue that he has admitted changing his position on.

“I’d make sure that the progress that has been made to provide for life and to protect human life is not progress that would be reversed,” Romney told Fox News’ Mike Huckabee in October. “My view is that the Supreme Court should reverse Roe v. Wade and send back to the states the responsibility for deciding whether they’re going to have abortion legal in their state or not.”

...a ‘white horse’ of many colors’...just like the mormon church...

polygamy yesterday, but nah, not today...

one day they cut your throat for disagreeing with your bishop, now, not so much, check with us next week...

once anyone who wasn’t white was ‘dark and loathesome’ and cursed by God...now it’s ‘whatchoo talkin bout willis?’...

how would you expect anything less than a flip floppin ‘deer in the headlights’ mitt when his mormon god is a flip floppin basketcase?

if a mormon gives a position on anything, check the expiration date...it might have the lifespan of a butterfly

Regardless of politics, Romney seems to be a moral, loyal, loving husband and father who donates a ton of his money to charity and helping conservatives get elected.

Oh?

I think I can name a few that he's trying DESPERATELY that they do NOT get elected!!!

Well....name his charities. And then tell me what Conservatives he's helped get elected.

And you know he doesn't do any of those three...how? Of course you don't really know...How could you? Admit it..........

He's not boastful and arrogant???? He's a politician!!! Please.............

We just have better things to do with our lives than play "holier than thou" Christian Talibanism.

What's that, Ma'am?

No; we do NOT know if Vigilanteman ever was a missionary.

I'm learning what posters aren't even worth reading, much less responding to.

Seeing how some MORMONs respond; you're smart not to as well.
