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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

blatant prejudice
Perhaps, if one is going to write a piece on an individual with a specific religious affiliation, one should not be ''anti'' that religion. Making such petty attacks upon the LDS church only decreases the author's credibility, which was shaky enough due to factual errors about this faith. The autho states that Mormons believe that a ''skin of ...

Why is he only being judged as a Mormon?
This article was written very one sided showing the doubts a person would have dealing with a Mormon politician. As a presidential candidate I would be more interested in how his religeous beliefs have or will effect his job or decision making. To jump to conclusions and catigorize him as a racist is far to extreme to do to any canidate without ...
