Political discussions about everything

In the last debate Romney made this comment:

My — my passion probably flows from the fact that I believe in God. And I believe we’re all children of the same God. I believe we have a responsibility to care for one another. I — I served as a missionary for my church. I served as a pastor in my congregation for about 10 years. I’ve sat across the table from people who were out of work and worked with them to try and find new work or to help them through tough times.

Problem here is that the Mormon Cult doesn't have pastors-they have Bishops. Could this statement possibly be a ploy for votes? Say anything if it will get you votes Mitt!

The Salt Lake City Tribune just endorsed Obama. They noted great disappointment in a Romney whom they no longer recognize.

Terms used in the Moron religion are profit, apostles, bishopric, priesthood, ministers, laity.

Pastor is a term used to describe a person who has counseling responsibility over a congregation. They can be ministers, priests, have other official titles or even be a one of the laity.

Remember my previous post:

“The Fourteen Fundamentals in Following the Prophet.” by Ezra Taft Benson (1899-1994) Past Leader of Mormon Religion. http://www.mrm.org/

In this message, Benson reminded his audience that the Mormon prophet “is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything,” including “civic matters.” Benson insisted that “those who would remove prophets from politics would take God out of government.” This sermon closed with a stern warning: “The prophet and the presidency—the living prophet and the First Presidency—follow them and be blessed; reject them and suffer.” Wanting to know how a Mormon candidate interprets such comments should not be considered unreasonable.

If Romney wins (shudder, shudder0 it should be a wild ride.

Ezra Taft Benson's 14 Fundamentals:

1. The prophet is the only man who speaks for the Lord in everything.

2. The living prophet is more vital to us than the standard works.

3. The living prophet is more important to us than a dead prophet.

4. The prophet will never lead the church astray.

5. The prophet is not required to have any particular earthly training or credentials to speak on any subject or act on any matter at any time.

6. The prophet does not have to say “Thus Saith the Lord,” to give us scripture.

7. The prophet tells us what we need to know, not always what we want to know.

8. The prophet is not limited by men’s reasoning.

9. The prophet can receive revelation on any matter, temporal or spiritual.

10. The prophet may be involved in civic matters.

11. The two groups who have the greatest difficulty in following the prophet are the proud who are learned and the proud who are rich.

12. The prophet will not necessarily be popular with the world or the worldly.

13. The prophet and his counselors make up the First Presidency—the highest quorum in the Church.

14. The prophet and the presidency—the living prophet and the First Presidency—follow them and be blessed—reject them and suffer.
