  • If you run on your beliefs you better defend them

    The Romney's and the Huckabees and the Bushes of the world want us to think that they are good people because they believe in God. This may or may not be true. They may not be good people. They may be bad people, because of their beliefs, they may be good people in spite of their beliefs or they may be good people because of their beliefs, but if ...

  • Romney's World

    Anyone catch the opening joke in Cedar Rapids today? That was a real Mormon insider! In Mitt's recounting, a 70-year-old man was asked how he convinced a hot 25-year-old woman to marry him. ''What did you do?'' ''Well,'' he said, ''I lied about my age.'' '' So, what did you do, tell her you were what, 50?'' ''No,'' he said. ''I told her I was ...

  • I agree- but...

    I agree with the position taken by the author that Mitt needs to talk more about his religion. Religion is one of those things that helps form the core of many people. Therefore understanding Mitt's religion can help us understand who he is and what he will stand for if elected. That being said, however, I fundamentally disagree with the manner ...

  • Romney, the cringe-factor

    Slate, Slate, Slate.... my source as a (gasp) Liberal, New England educated Latter-day Saint for some light-hearted Romney bashing and entertaining campaign videos.... What were you thinking? The ''Boxers Briefs or MORMON UNDERWEAR'' headline was cute (they're called Garments, by the way). The article, and our dear Hitch's lack of respect ...

  • Re: I AM A MORMON

    The inventory of good works cited by ''I AM A MORMON'' reminds me a lot of the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector from Luke 18: 18:10 ''Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector. 18:11 The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: 'God, I thank you, that I am not ...

  • Mitt the Mormon

    I thought this article was inappropriate, calling a religion a cult is out of line. And poking fun at things that a religion holds as sacred is also out of line. I think that Mitt Romney declining answers about his religion is appropriate because he probably does not want to become a spokesperson for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day ...

  • Proud to be Mormon

    Wow! This article really hurt my feelings. Politics is one thing and it seems that mudslinging within campaigning is tolerated, however some of the comments made in this article went beyond mudslinging at a cadidate and were more directed at the religion itself. I don't know what exactly qualifies Mr. Christopher Hitchens as an expert of my ...

  • Mitt Romney Campaign

    It is ridiculous that Romney's faith should play such a huge role in this campaign. The Mormon way of life is commendable, and should be researched (using non-biased sources) thoroughly before any rash judgments are made about it. Why is Obama not being attacked for being Black? (Of course not, that would be discriminatory) Why isn't Clinton ...

  • Mitt the Mormon

    When you say Joseph Smith was a convicted fraud. What do you know of that? Did you know he was murdered before he was even convicted. And that at both trials he was at, they had no real proof that what he said was wrong. All they said was that it was sacrilege, and blasphemy. Have you Christopher Hitchens really studied, and researched that Mormon ...

  • What Mormons Believe!

    There is a great way to know exactly what the Mormons believe. Instead of asking all of their neighbors and enemies what the Mormons believe, why don't we take a look at it in their own words. I have looked at www.mormon.org and www.lds.org and by so doing have come to better understand that Mormons are true Christians with strong Moral and Family ...
