Mitt Romney's Racist Mormonism

This intense segment of PaleoRadio dealt forcefully with the role that religious worldviews play in the life and thought of sectarian adherents, and how, if Mitt Romney wins the Republican primaries, conservative Evangelicals and Catholics will ignore and/or diminish the significance it has had - and the impact it will likely continue to have - on the way Mitt Romney would think and act as President of the United States.

You say "look at the institution." Then look at the mormons. be nice, love neighbor, be self sufficient, help others, keep family close, recognize Jesus as your savior.... blah blah blah. Your drama is not warranted, not being rude, I actually like you; then the black people thing? I know a mormon married to a black person.. Make fun of one religion, you make fun of them all. (you know, virgin birth etc) Afraid Romney will force you to mass? Do some homework..you're credible, don't blow it.

@mrclub541 Let me repeat here what I've repeated elsewhere in this comment section. I've studied Mormonism and am familiar with their principles and PR. I've read significant sections of Book of Mormon, especially during basic training in the U.S. Navy. My bunkmate was very devout, speaking to me daily. I went to Mormon services during basic ever week. Joined discussion groups. Witnessed baptists and communion. Invited missionaries into my home numerous times, even to get out of cold.

This guy is stupid...all religion's have there idiotic radical parts that very few of the believers actually believe in...For example christianity says you can't eat shellfish, says women can have no authority over man, says that if a teenager speaks out against his parents that he should be stoned to death....Islam preaches to kill anyone who won't submit to Muhammad....Open your eyes people

[paleocrat]

@KDubVideos Disagree all day long, but reconsider the accusation that I'm stupid. I'm quite familiar so-called "radical" aspects of Christianity, both those in the bible (i.e. stoning gays, rules regarding menstruation, dietary laws, kinism, patriarchalism, sexism, etc.) and those outside the bible (i.e. various Catholic and Protestant traditions, etc.). The same holds true for my criticisms of Islam.

It's definitely true that the entirety of a person's worldview affects who they are and what they will do. However, when you talk about a political office, not all of a person's beliefs will be put into action. What matters is what they will do with that specific power and that specific role. Not all of a person's beliefs will affect what they do in political office. Still it is wise to be cautious, in case some of their less agreeable beliefs do affect their political choices.

[paleocrat]

@ChronoSoul I agree 100%. This particular video is 10 minutes of a much longer segment. I've dealt with Mormonism twice on the program and spoke with a Mormon who called after watching this video. In all, a decent amount of time. Most of the time dedicated to the matter, as with any treatment of religion on PaleoRadio, has to do with worldviews and how (and whether) they impact word and deed. I explain this in relation to Mitt Romney during the program. It's worth download: paleoradio(dot)us

Lets examine the recent teachings of the prophet of this church, here's a list of topics for his most recent speeches to the church: Happiness through service (how serving others brings us happiness), School thy feelings (how to control your anger and be more kind), Stand in Holy Places (spend your time doing things that uplift you and in places that uplift you), Charity never faileth (be charitable as Jesus taught), WOW sounds like pretty good stuff to me.

Mormonism is 180Degrees ass backward. It curses blacks but this is a blessing because it saved Millions of Blacks from the curse of Mormonism. Conversely the blessing of "White and Delightsome" is a curse to Millions of Whitey's! Or look at the Big Red Thumb up above:: PROVES this is a good video and many Mormons are watching a listening! Mormons at the Mountain Meadows Massacre:: A White Flag was presented to emigrants. Accepted, the Mormons murdered 90 women and children and some 30 men

@TennesseeSaint To eat Mormon meat you need to put on slickers. Mormonism is blood bath of violence. There is a "Secret Tow Line" between Mormonism and Freemasonry at the highest political levels. Mormonism posits a polygamous polytheistic Jesus, Blood atonement, Adam=God, swear violent oaths, and a host of theological beliefs contradicting 2000 yrs of Christianity. JFK got hell for being Catholic. Romney Serves the will of and laid his manhood at the feet of the Hierarchy.

[TennesseeSaint]

@TennesseeSaint So I hope you do not continue to destroy him with thy doctrines through condemnation, but rather walk charitably with them. And if you do not decide to humble your heart at try the spirits but remain as a babe in your doctrinal beliefs, there is still a place for you in heaven, but I exhort that you do humble your heart to have even more given unto you, and not let Satan scare you away from truth, for he will attempt to do so, so pray that the holy spirit guide you.

[TennesseeSaint]

@TennesseeSaint This is the manner in which even the Apostles of the Bible taught as well.1 Cor. 3:1And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. 2I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. 3For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

[TennesseeSaint]

@TennesseeSaint There are things that are not understood and rejected by babes. however, we should not destroy our brothers with our meat. we should not take our doctrines as we know them and destroy others faiths. Romans 14:15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

[TennesseeSaint]

@TennesseeSaint We do not increase in truth by disproving falsehoods but by spreading truth. Jesus was the supreme example of this when he said in John 3:17:"For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."

[TennesseeSaint]

@TennesseeSaint If only YOu tube did not limit posts to 500 Characters! (Now a continuation of my prior post) LDS.ORG and search garment .... if you want to know what Latter-Day Saints really believe. We should contend for the faith, in other words defend it when it is attacked, but not make it a point to go and tell others that the way they currently believe is wrong.

[TennesseeSaint]

@paleocrat Based upon your definition of what Latter-Day Saints believe garments are and what they do for a person, I can not believe that you attended a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I have not received your version of the doctrine since I joined TEN YEARS AGO! Well As this former evangelical Christian that has searched for truth in many denomination and faiths, I see nothing wrong with the holy garment of a priest. The Bible mentions this too. Go to LDS.ORG and search garment

@paleocrat

That's too bad.. That you won't get into it on here that is. I'm just genuinely curious as to why; it has nothing to do with you specifically exactly, rather, I'm just always interested in "deconversionesque" types of stories. If you ever decided to give some comments on the subject in this forum, ie youtube, I'd be very interested. Hope all is well with you.
