If Mitt Romney's religion is so important to him, is it based on lies? Is that why he's a liar?

[DainBramaged]

Does his (or Christianity in general) allow lies and hateful political behaviour with the excuse 'it's just politics'?


Bah.



Because of the storm is he moving his lies to other ststes? (Andy Borowitz)



Lies, in the name of God.

1. Mormonism allows lies

Look it up In Wikipedia.

[Amphigouri]

2. Religious bigotry is a tool of the right.

Leave it to them. Act like a liberal, not an intolerant bigot. Remember that Harry Reid is a Mormon too, is he a liar?

3. "Lying for the Lord" is considered the moral thing to do by Mormonism.

5. We're talking about their doctrine believe it or not...it's their doctrine to lie

4. I would simply say read the Book of Mormon

and the contemporary descriptions of the time including those written by Joseph Smith and draw your own conclusions. I would advise the same for the Bible as well.

My daughter is doing a comparison paper of the formation of the O.T., N.T., and Book of Mormon for her English class. The Book of Mormon and the Mormon church are an excellent example to study because significant non-Mormon contemporary information exists for it.

6. Also,

The morman church did not allow blacks until one took them to court. (but who would want to belong to an organization that you had to sue to belong to?)
Also, note that women even today are not allowed to have any positions with any authority.
(I believe there is 1 committee that is all women but they still have to report to a man!)

8. A judge did not change Mormon theology, God changed his mind in 1978 according to their

Prophet, blacks were allowed to be Mormons before that, but they were not allowed into the religious leadership.

For instance, there were black Mormons during the military draft years from 1948 to 1973, but they were not allowed to get the Mormon draft deferment that Mitt used.

7. The most important Mormon Prophet

The most important Mormon Prophet is named Benjamin.

As in "Follow the Benjamins".
