I think Mr. Romney is a very good man, and his morals will be a refreshing change in Washington. As a Christian, do you think being a Mormon goes against your Christian values at all, or would his exemplary life be a good role model for young americans?

No, I wouldn't have voted for him no matter what religion he was. I don't agree with his stands on some issues that I consider important. I don't really care what someone's religion is, I just look at their stands on the issues.

I'm not a big Romney fan. I prefer Huckabee! But no I don't think him speaking about his faith was a bad thing after all he keeps getting attacked for it he might as well clear up what role his beliefs play in his life. I remember the first thing I heard about him. It went something to the effect of Governor Mitt Romney a Mormon has decided to run for president. And my first thought was what does religion have to do with the fact that hes running. Personally I'm glad he stood up to his attackers and spoke out about what so many try to hide.

Aside from the fact that you cannot believe the Mormon fantasy - which it most assuredly is - that fact that he will not repent from the very obvious fabrications of his faith testifies to his lack of integrity. ]]
And which lack he seems to have shown, as his changes from past liberalism seemed to be for political priorities, and when he was governor here, he seemed to be running for office when he should have been minding the ranch, and in which he still fostered homosexual activity.

Quite frankly, I would prefer someone use common
sense and logic to run the country rather than a religious
belief, no matter which.
I'm not looking for a preacher, or a pastor or a highly
paid proselytizer. I'm looking for a president with sense,
with the ability to make rational decisions based on
common sense free of religious injection.
Looks like the pool to pick from is bleak.

I support Mitt
and I believe his religion has as much validity as any of the Others Except the insane muslim.. as the husain barack obama who claims he is Unitarian ( allah permits lying)
("saddam" husein barrack "osama" obama)
Each christian sect was formed by protest..
Smith and their founders just followed by example..
Sorry about the "go forth and multiply" but a good idea at the time.
The Mormon religion is steadfast in honesty and moral fiber.
and has no more involvement than what the Kennedy family brought to the presidency....
But I fear a converted muslim that did not adopt a Christian name when becoming a Unitarian Christian since being born Catholic.. moving to Indonesia to become muslim..and returning to America...
Sorry
Mr. Mitt Romney tops all the others

I used to admire him, until I read more about him, dear one. He has flip-flopped on more issues than a trout fresh out of the stream. The fact that he is Mormon is unsettling, due to the fact that if a person can be persuaded to belong to a cult, they can be persuaded about lots of other things that aren't necessarily good. But his flip-flopping is the worst part.
While he was governor of Massachusetts, he instigated same-sex marriage, just so he could make a show of coming against it. This is fact and it takes a lot of investigating on these candidates to know enough about them so you can vote with intelligence and confidence.
God bless!

Whether anyone wants to admit it or not, each and every individual's faith is differenct. It differs from shopkeeper to shopkeeper, rabbi to rabbi, child to child, Mormom to Mormon, pope to pope. There are religions and sects and cults and atheists and theists, etc. etc. etc. As no two people in the world share 100% the same identical faith (in their hearts, minds and spirits), how can we really consider a persons intimate faith a matter in selecting public officials? Let's judge them by their deeds, not by what the public perceives as their "faith."

I don't believe there would be much of a difference between a Mormon or a Christian, religiously. Mormons actually consider themselves Christian, although the Roman Catholic Church doesn't share the feelings. I think each one believes in God/J.C. so would most likely hold similar morals and values that I believe would equip him with the tools to run a country ethically. Although, that's just based on religion, when politics are involved it's a whole different game.

...man...we need a businessman in D.C.-not some "Man"-bent on his own agenda...there are 300+million people here and that whole old school theory of family values hav changed...we need to move forward not backward as a nation and I don't think he's capable...an innovative President that actually does something other than pose would be a good start-

No. Why should it? Mormon's are Christian, and his faith is his business. It shouldn't matter what faith he is as long as he gets the job done.
