I've talked before about the
secret oath that Mormons swear in their temples. I've talked before how this oath de facto disqualifies Mitt Romney from being President of the United States, since his oath to his church can conflict with his oath of office.
Perhaps you don't consider oaths (before God) a big deal. About half of Americans break their marriage oath before God, choosing to divorce without Biblical cause. (And more than once!) It seems a lot of politicians, police officers and people in government don't take their oath of office very seriously either.
If that's you, then there's little I can say to you and little hope for you with your lukewarm attitude. Truly, there's nothing I can do to warn you of the danger of having a Mormon cultist like Mitt Romney for President. I mean, if YOU won't keep an oath, why would you be vexed about Mitt Romney swearing two mutually exclusive oaths?
But if you take oaths seriously, then listen to this warning from someone who's been Mormon. For Mormons DO take their oath, at least the one to their church, seriously.
Here's a
letter to the editor of The Hill from a former Mormon trying to warn you what he/she knows. Note the reluctance of the writer to disclose his identity. Living in a Mormon enclave, perhaps he knows something about the Mormon church that you don't?
I read with interest David Hill’s Feb. 2 column about Mormonism and Gov. Mitt Romney [R-Mass.]. As a person who left the Mormon faith, I can get to the core of the problem of which voters should be aware.
In
the Mormon temples, a vow is made to put the Mormon Church first.
Before 1990, there was even a death symbol involved about keeping the
vow (which has since been removed). In no uncertain terms, the temple
vow promises to use all talents to further the Mormon (Latter-day
Saints) Church.
Would Gov. Romney
keep his vow to the church always to put it first or would he be loyal
to the people who vote for him? Which oath of trust would he break?
It
is naive to think the agenda of the Mormon Church will be acceptable to
all. Would he use his power to help religion get extra breaks and
influence?
Mormons also agree to keep silent about the “sacred”
vows they make in the temple. This creates a problem for the voter.
When push comes to shove, would a Mormon who attends the Mormon temple
put his church first? If he doesn’t, he has broken a vow. Either way,
one cannot trust where the allegiance will lie.
Please keep my
name confidential. I take a risk living in a Mormon community speaking
out about the temple proceedings.
Thank you.

You don't want a President who's sworn an oath to some guy in Salt Lake City. That means you don't want Mormon Mitt Romney for President.
Whether you believe God in the Bible or not, the fact is, no man can serve two masters. As the former Mormon warns you in his letter, you don't know whether Mitt Romney will obey his "god" (which in reality is his church) and do what's best for his church, or whether he will do what's best for our country.
In his mind, they are the same. In your mind, they may not be.
