Here is how it goes: if you don't believe in Mormonism, it really doesn't matter what Mormons believe. Likewise for any other faith. Let me put it this way: who cares.


The American people deserve to know if Romney will answer to Salt Lake. If he believes those men speak for God he can't really just ignore them.


Meanwhile, the State of Utah is currently arguing in court that the LDS Church should be allowed to influence Utah's liquor laws. http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/faith/5334 ... s.html.csp

You know, because having the church of which you are a member send representatives to lobby you about what laws to enact poses no particular ethical or Establishment Clause question. (Note: not a commentary on the merits of this particular lawsuit.)

LDS Church spokesman Scott Trotter said Friday in an email that Mormon leaders have not publicly taken a stand on proposed liquor laws. “The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has always maintained its right to express its views on significant moral issues that directly affect its members and the community,” he wrote.

So, does that mean the Church would maintain its right to have the prophet call President Romney and tell him he should not sign a given bill into law because it concerns a "significant moral issue"?

Temple Oaths can take presidence over Justice.

Every ward house in Utah Just as well have a Target Painted on it, Every other country sees them as targets, so the Mormons just need to admit that themselves, A Mormon President= Not good for Utah or any other part of this country.

Maybe Its a Part of the Master Plan; Perhaps the NSA is supposed to be spying on Utahns.

Mormons can't have "Small Government" along with a Mormon President.
