To a degree, all three religions have differences and similarities with each other. We can look for common ground, respect each other and tolerate each other while each holding true to our own principle. Perhaps I am naive and have not experience the same as others in America, but I believe that the majority in all three religions are tolerant despite a few bad apples.<br /><br />As for Mr. Romney's adultery, while I neither approve of his personal actions or his politics, not all Gingrichites are comfortable with his personal actions, most either forgive him or overlook them.Ohio JOEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03487408376861656109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-74248157118785460992011-11-22T22:42:26.455-05:002011-11-22T22:42:26.455-05:00I have been following the issue of religion and po...I have been following the issue of religion and politics pretty closely for about four years now. I have two comments about what I have observed.<br /><br />1) Many of these evangelicals who hate Mormons also hate Catholics. I have read articles that contain quite a lot of bigotry directed toward Catholics.<br /><br />2) There is a certain amount of anti-Mormon doubt/bigotry that Mitt faces--mostly from evangelicals at this time. No one knows for certain just how strong or deep these feelings are. If evangelicals choose the thrice-married [hopefully] former adulterer over Mitt, it will make quite a statement. Certainly not a good one about people who believe in family values.<br /><br />By the way, there is no doubt that the anti-religion secular left hates Mormons and all other religious people more and the vitriol hasn't really begun yet.<br /><br />AZAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-55552932732753825872011-11-22T18:27:28.472-05:002011-11-22T18:27:28.472-05:00No...I think it's great that you're out sa...<i>No...I think it's great that you're out saying that.

I promise. I have never been offended by any attack on Romney. In fact, I will gladly criticize him right now if you would like. I can vote for Romney because he is the only adult in the room, but that doesn't mean that I have hitched my wagon to whatever he says. The reason why Palin supporters are so open to attack is because it looks like a personality cult. <br /><br />But I digress. I give you and the rest of the former Palin folks props for sticking it out here. I am quite sure that that Christy Alaska Report blogger is no longer interested in politics now that Palin has diminished. I appreciate the fact that you guys are letting go and moving forward.

It is not a fantasy. It is well-documented. It reared it's ugly head in Iowa and SC last time, with Huck's encouragement. (I'm happy to see he is mending his ways.) <br /><br />It appears to be happening again with this latest poll showing Evangelicals going to the slimeball, rather than to Romney.<br /><br />Does it matter? I don't think it will. I think Romney will be just fine without the bigots. People like Jeffress, Fischer, the AFA and a host of other pastors/leaders. They are marginalizing themselves.

For most of this year, we were mocked & talked down too by Martha, Ellie, Pablo & others (mainly scores of Anon posters). All they did was make fun of us, call us stupid, dirty old men, fools, suckers & many other things. We were forced to defend Palin 24/7, even against charges that Palin wasn't the mother of her son Trig. After being attacked for months...you start to get a bit tired of it.<br /><br />I agree with you about just supporting your candidate but we never had that chance here or at other sites like Race42012 (where we were also mocked). Not every Romney supporter did that here (namely AZ, hamaca, Noelle, DanL, GetReal & a few others) but many did.<br /><br />A.J.R.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-55779477145676156852011-11-22T15:23:40.084-05:002011-11-22T15:23:40.084-05:00"The most illogical part of evangelicals'..."The most illogical part of evangelicals' relationship with Newt Gingrich is that he is not an evangelical.
