OK, this thread isn’t about the Mormon Church per se, but as a heads up about a program on TV tonight by Brian Williams. Rock Center, he’s going to look at the Mormon Church, and is going to highlight an interview with one of Jon Huntsman’s daughters, who left the Mormon Church after being confronted by her Bishop, for dating a non-Mormon. She had only known the boy three weeks, but the Bishop questioned her on it, and warned her not to date a non-Mormon. She walked out of the Bishop’s office and out of the Mormon Church. She married the young man and converted to his religion, the Episcopal Church.

The program is being aired at 10 PM, on NBC.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that one of the nominees for POTUS is a Mormon.

God bless.

(in best Gilbert Gottfried voice) "Why am I not surprised???

You can place it among the numerous stories that Mr. Williams did in 2008 regarding people who left Jeremiah Wright’s church. Except…

The media is just trying to figure out a way to cause a stink about Romney because the media is freakily progressive and can’t stand him. Completely predictable. No surprises here.

There is not a single journalist who has been subjected to even a fraction of the scrutiny.
 
This is so political. I cannot believe it. They are simply trying everything to avoid the real issues - the economy, the high unemployment, and high inflation, the abortion, the persecution of the Church and religious freedom, the progressive to communist society, the ration of the seniors,the class war , the weakening of national defense … The left uses everything unimportant to distract people. Unbelievable!

This is why I no longer:
  1. Watch TV
  2. Receive a newspaper
  3. Listen to non-Catholic radio
I am now much happier.
 
Let’s say we watch the program before we judge it, or Brian Williams, eh?

Jim
 
I am watching it now not to bad, pretty strange that Blacks weren’t allowed to join at first.
 
As I understand it, Mitt Romney attended Mormon services for years, sat in the pew, but never heard a word of the sermons or teachings.

Why do you say that?

From what I’ve read, he was very active in leadership positions etc. in his church.

I was just at a Mormon church last Sunday and ALL the women (except me) took communion. So that one is not true.

They said if varied and was up to the local bishop or something.

They in fact showed men receiving communion while the women sat and watched.

Pres. Obama’s pastor for 20+ yrs, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright is anti Amereican, Anti semite,
& preaches a race-based theology. Obama described J. Wright as like family; they were close. But when Obama was questioned about the offensive preaching’s & teachings of his pastor (20 yrs attended this church & sat in the pews) Obama told the press he did not hear any of those sermons or teachings . . . he was not paying attention.
Nothing traditional in Wright’s interpretation of scripture

I am looking for a link to the documentary done by the liberal old press on Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago & their famous pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Or is Mitt Romney’s non-traditional religion the only one scrutinized & held up for ridicule?
Mormon baiting?

“The government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color. The government lied.” quote from Rev Jeremiah Wright.

This thread isn’t about Obama.

Please stay on topic.
