LDS and a theist? I don't know about that one ;) -- while I am certainly LDS, and I am certainly theist -- I am quite often at odds with the physical, biological, molecular and chemical ramifications of dismissing evolution, without being able to consider the possibility that evolution and creationism can, indeed, co-exist. I am a walking contradiction, I suppose, in some cases -- however, it allows me the opportunity to explain the unexplainable in both creationism, and evolution...

However, changing the subject back to what it was previously... I don't believe, for one second, that anyone who believes in the Book of Mormon should be discounted out of hand as being president. Doing so, creates the idea that anyone who believes in the Bible should be discounted from being president, and so on, and so forth. I, personally, hoped that Romney wouldn't run. The reasoning, is that the LDS church has gone through quite enough throughout history, then to have it thrust forefront of a presidential campaign, so these guys can ridicule it, when they don't even know it.

Dude... lighten up..

Wow -- you are not only ignorant, you are intollerant as well? Odd, but let's go with that.

How are the two in seperate leagues? Both are the word of God (oh, that's right... you blindly accept the Bible... but having never read the Book of Mormon, you KNOW it must not be -- however, carrying on). Both speak of Jesus, before and after his crucifiction, and both speak of the Lord. Wow... you're right -- they ARE in different leagues!

Right... you believe in freedom of religion -- your words prove that by your intolerance of it. You bet! No -- you only believe in freedom of religion, if everyone believes like you. Otherwise, you slander, smear and libel them to make yourself feel better. It's a good thing I am not the same as you, this could get ugly if I were.

And yes -- you DO have to be poisoned to know something is poison. Tell me something -- if you were to come up to two glasses, one poisoned, and one not -- how do you know which is poisoned? You have two choices: take a drink from one, or walk away. But, your "poison" analogy, while severely lacking in any logic, is really a bad way to discuss any religion. More of your venomnous attitude, I suppose, toward anyone that happens to believe differently from you on the subject of religion.

And finally... I say again -- you can only be led astray, if I didn't believe in the Bible. Since I do, and since the LDS church reads them both, and believes in them both -- there is no way that I could be led astray. You go on believing I do, it doesn't bother me one way or the other. However, comments of the ignorant, such as yourself, on the subject of the Book of Mormon, etc., only show everyone reading this, a severe lack of tolerence for the First Amendment... Oh, and by the way, why don't you show me in the Bible where there is a freedom of speech mentioned. I'm just dying to read the passage. Freedom of speech is protected by the First Amendment of the US Constitution. Without the First Amendment, your government is free to stop you from saying anything it desires you to stop saying, at any time. Your "Bible" argument, they would laugh at.

You deflect the argument to ignore my point about party strategy. Read it again.
