Is Romney Still Dogged by Mormon Questions?

Any reporter who is on the ball would realize that the Salt Lake Tribune is no friend of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Of course there is a lot of anti-Mormon sentiment among Evangelicals!! It all has to do with religous competition and political clout. James Dobson's wife had the nerve to refuse Mormons from participating in the National Day of Prayer because Mormons don't believe in the extra-bibilcal beliefs of the Nicene creed. The downfall of this country will be the loss of unity and the fighting between the religious tribes in American. And we feel we are better off than the Middle East. We have got to follow the teachings of Christ by working together for what is best for America and not for what is best for this or that religious tribe.

I agree. I see that we are in some scary times and this arrogance by some religions will be part of our downfall. Watching this begin to show it's head is what got me all hot and bothered about this election. I am female and I am mormon. I wouldn't vote for Hillary bcs she's a woman any more than I would Mitt bcs he's mormon. I feel it's our obligation as Americans to research the candidates that align with your economic and moral concerns.

Anti-mormonism is alive and well and will continue. Period. I honestly cringe at the thought of Romney moving forward bcs it will bring on more undeserved attention. In 35 years I have never heard a negative word spoken about another religion at church. They are all respected. If only others acted accordingly. I have evangelical neighbors who will not speak to me bcs they "found out" that I'm mormon. Some of my husbands family (evangelicals), while in my home, at a party with people from my company, "confronted me" bcs they found out I'm mormon. They will not speak to me. Why?? The exact words were "they can't tolerate a mormon who shares their last name."

My ancestors were forced from their homes, some slaughtered, some starved to flee religious prosecution. They traveled thousands of miles to find a place to worship in peace. Yet almost 200 years later I get on websites and see hatred spewd bcs someone doesn't agree with mormon doctrine. I have seen a whole lot of hate on this site I might ad... I think the latest one likened voting for Romney as dancing with the devil. Are you kidding me?? Has our country really advanced so little? How are these people any different than people in the middle east? Hate is hate. But hate, hiding behind the precept of "I'm a Christian and they're not" is a whole new level.

I respect others and I respect their beliefs. But in this day and age of families that are deteriorating, schools that are disfunctional, healthcare that costs me $1000 per month, I can't afford to not pay attention to who we put in office.. Sure, I would prefer to have this wonderful Christian in office. But guess what? If he comes with a record that says he's going to take more food off my table (taxes) so I have to work harder and have less time to spend with my family, do a half ass job of securing our borders. No thank you.

Lets leave religon out of politices shall we.
That is what the Fist Amendment talks about! Fredom of religon and the separation of Church and State. Leave your Religious hat at the door when taking office. And stop bashing others religon. It won't win my Vote!
I'm more concerned with heath care,the economy,and helping the victims of Katriana who are still waiting for our Gov. to do the right thing!
And the War, can't for get that, when and how do our trops come home?
