    I was just wondering... How can some of Christians vote for a Mormon for President. I posted it before, but think it belongs here. I really can't see how a Christian can vote for a "business man" and on top of that - A MORMON!!!

    And before any of you that don't know your Bible (like a Darwinist doesn't know biology) look crap up before you post something retarded please..

    :)

    Pretty sure he's referencing the money changers in the temple. Could be wrong.

    Mormons are just another kind of Christian they believe in Jesus as there savior atoning for their sins that’s the Christian Christ

    But more importantly the lds churches values are probably the same as other Christian churches they would just be voting for someone like themselves or this being a politician at least someone willing to say that he is like them

    They can vote for a Mormon because there not theocrats that want their own denomination to rule over everything

    Its not a sin to vote for the best person for the job. And I don't see Romney as a ...."money changer" (Thx Junkie)

    Of course...Santorum would have been my first choice...but alas he's not in the running.

    No, they aren't. But their values are not all that different.

    Mormons are Christians. Christians that I have met that do not like Mormon's say so because they do not like that the Mormon's "wrote their own book". Which seems hypocritical to me as many persons writings were included in the King James version of the Bible... let alone the infighting at the Hampton Court Conference before its publishing about what should be included in the King James version.

    people often forget that the Christian bible is a list of stories people picked to go in there of many that were available at the time, many were excluded, sure that was a hard pill for some to swallow at the time if stories they believed were excluded

    Well. Romney has shown himself to be more of a Christian than Obama is.

    But they both suck and are bad for the country.

    GOOD GOD!!!!!

    I said in the initial post, MORMONS ARE NOT CHRISTIANS!!! Only one person stated they are not (thank you CKW) and they were right. Do Christians believe The Bible is wrong? Nope, but Mormons do… Do Christians believe that there is more than ONE GOD? Nope… But, Mormons do… Do Christians believe that there is a council between them and God that they need to follow “their” rules instead of The Bible? Nope, but Mormons do… Do Christians believe that Jesus and Satan are BROTHERS… Oh hell no… But Mormons do…

    Mormons are not Christians in the least… They are about as Christian as Buddhist… They SPIT on The Holy Book and The Bible SPECIFICALLY STATES do not follow anyone who worships false Gods and Idols that are not of HIM… Mormons do not follow The Bible – they follow whatever that stupid group makes up every year!!

    So the question remains… How can a Christian vote for a Mormon?

    It is fairly obvious that Mormons are not Christian, those who disagree obviously do not know much about Mormonism.

    they belive the bible was right but corupted hardly unreasnoble peapole change things even without the help of the fallen souls they belive in

    since they consider the devil and jesus to both be gods creations that makes them brothers big deal

    their is a kind of christian that belives those things mormons deal with it

    their quite oposed to idols and false gods and even the other gods that exist dont concern them their not worshiping any 1 new

    so their wrong acording to some brands of faith your wrong to theirs neither side has more then faith ultimatly

    so stop being such a pissy little angry brat about it till you dig up an actual supreme being to back you up

    For the same reason they would vote for a secular community organizer.

    Becoming a god and owning you own planet and harem sounds a lot better than being cooped up in a golden room on a waterless planet without sex.

    I really don't understand the big deal. I consider myself a fundamentalist Christian.....but if its between Romney and Obama....I'm obligated to make the best choice. What is the big deal here....regarding that he is a Morman?

    Though Obama SAYS he is Christian....I doubt it. He doesn't act it. His church seems to be liberal activist, and black theology then the Christian faith. His paster..promotes a racist Muslim. Ulimately Obama has zero credibility for me. I trust Romney more. I agree more with Romney's economic philosophy.

    So....I can vote for a Muslim if I have too. I can vote for a Morman if I have too. I can even vote for an Atheist if I have too.

    But I will vote.
