Mitt Romney not being elected president proves absolutely nothing about the doctrines of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). All it proves is that most members of the Electoral College support Barack Obama. Romney's candidacy was entirely separate from the Church and it's doctrines, and his loosing is a reflection of the attitudes of voters and of him personally, not the accuracy or truth of his religion. (Catholics, Protestants, and other Mormons have lost presidential elections in the past - does that prove that all Christian religions are false?)
Where will I go? Nowhere. I'm going to live in the same house, go to the same job, and go to the same church that I always have.
What will I do? Nothing. I'm going to do the same job, the same hobbies, and the same religious practices that I always have.
Who do I believe in? I believe in Jesus Christ, that He is my Savior, and that I am saved through His mercy and grace, just like I always have.
No. It is all water over the dam. The election is over. Romney would win in Utah and Idaho regardless of whatever the Mormon church may have done. Churches have a right to make recommendations of how to vote. Furthermore, these two states had little effect on the election. If the election officials broke the law, they should be charged without tying the church in on the investigation.
Mitt Romney was the first member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) to be a major party's presidential nominee in the 2012 US election.
No. He is Christian. His family has been Mormon going way back
Mitt Romney is a Mormon.
Other than Rohmney they all claim to be Christian (he is Mormon)
1.) Mitt Romney is the 2012 Republican Presidential Candidate in the United States. He also ran in the 2008 election. You can learn more about him at the "Related Links" below. 2.) Mitt Romney is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) and has been an actively practicing member of this church his entire life. He is not the first Mormon to run for president. Here are some other Mormons who have entered the Presidential race in the United States: -Jon Huntsman (2012, Republican) -George Romney (1964, Republican) [Mitt Romney's dad] -Joseph Smith (1844, Independent) [founder of the Mormon Church]
No. Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan is not a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). Paul Ryan is Catholic.
The first Mormon to run for president was Joseph Smith, during the 1844 election. Mitt Romney's father, George, ran for president in the 1968 election, Mitt Romney ran in 2008 and 2012, and another Mormon, Jon Huntsman, also ran for president in 2012. Mitt Romney is the first Mormon to be chosen as a major party candidate.I don't believe any have. There has been other Christians that ran for president such as Abraham Lincoin, George Washington, George Bush, and Ronald Regan.
No. Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan is not a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). Paul Ryan is Catholic.
No. Mormons aren't embarrassed. Most Mormons don't even live in the US and therefore didn't really pay much attention to the presidential election. There are also hundreds of thousands (if not a million or more) Mormons who supported Barack Obama in the election. Having someone who happens to be a member of the same religious denomination as you lose a presidential election is not embarrassing. I, as a Mormon, certainly don't feel embarrassed, nor do I know of any other Mormons who feel embarrassed. The general feeling among Mormons who supported Romney is disappointment, but happy that he had a great campaign. Church leaders have asked all Mormons to congratulate President Obama on his victory and to pray for him and all other government leaders.
Mostly that we, the mormons, believe in the book of Mormon, and methodist's don't. that is the biggest difference that I know of!!
