Remember what I am folks. I am a liar, always have been, always will be. Here is a modification of an earlier post that clearly demonstrates how I react to any and all criticism.

Eric: "Why are you stealing a cookie?"
Wren: "I'm not stealing a cookie! You are delusional!"
Eric: "Then why is your hand in the cookie jar without paying?"
Wren: "What cookie jar? There is no cookie jar!"
Eric: "The one your hand is in."
Wren: "You radical bashers all hate the LDS church!"
Eric: "What the hell? You are stealing the cookie, not the radical bashers!"
Wren: "I'm not stealing a cookie, you are delusional! Stop persecuting me!"

Still altering other people's comments Kent?

Let ask all of you an honest question regarding Michael Leavitt's choosing to read Joseph's book of Mormon during these meetings.

If a Christian member chose to read from God's word the holy Bible, would that have been allowed?

I don't see why not...especially since Mormons are also Christians and also read the Holy Bible.

Methinks you would have little to fear Mr.Logan. For one thing...Washington D.C. is not a predominantly Mormon State...nor would Romney likely find very many Mormon cohorts in the White House, Congress, or the Senate to sit around and discuss the Book of Mormon and/or Mormon principles with.

But if Gordon B. isn't happy with how things are going all he has to do is threaten Mitt with excommunication and Mitt will definitely cave-in.

I don't see where it was ever an issue during the time he served as Governor...and I doubt it would be an issue if he were to serve as President of the United States of America.

Besides...this is not how the excommunication process works...and not the way that President Hinckley operates.

There are a number of reasons a man or woman might be excommunicated. Following after the dictates of the law of the land, and the Constitution of the United States of America is not an excommunicable offense.

Even if it were a possibility...what makes you so certain that Romney would cave in?

The Catholic Church once threatened John Kerry with the suspension of his right to partake of Communion. He refused to bend to the will of the Church. He was not excommunicated.

So...what makes you so certain that Mitt Romney would cave in?

Anyone who believes that Mitt could be excommunicated for not following Church direction to him in his role as President does not understand how the LDS church operates.

Now this is exactly why I fear Mitt Romney becoming president of the United States and trying to promote Mormonism into federal government.

The federal government would do well to adopt the Church's welfare practices and system. It would save the tax payers millions if not billions.

True, if they adopted the 10% tithe as a flat tax, fast offering as a welfare plan for the poor and needy, There wouldn't be a homeless or needy family in the whole United States. Also the system of organization and lack of pork, I think those ripping Leavitt might think again, and realize it wouldn't be a bad thing.

But truthfully we all know that the case would be more new Mormon ward houses and Mormon temples.

Nothin wrong with that. The world would be a better place.

Which parts of Mormonism mentioned in this article are you most concerned about becoming evident in the federal government? Or perhaps there are others you are more concerned about?


honestly I'd have to say Joseph Smith or Gordon B. Hinckley and everyone and everything inbetween

In other words, he was caught talking out of his butt, and he has no clue what he thinks the answer is.
