    ...I guess Billy, like myself, have come to the conclusion that a Mormon would be better in the WH than who we currently have.

    This is an interesting statement from Rev. Graham: http://www.citizenlink.com/2012/10/19/billy-graham-urges-voters-to-support-biblical-values/

    No matter who you vote for, GET OUT and VOTE. It is your right, exercise it with the thought in mind that this is still a free country that is allowed to make up their own minds on who sits in the Oval Office. :type:

    We have a moral unregenerate running for the White House - and an immoral unregenerate running for the White House. Other than religion, one stands for the same basic morals we do and the other doesn't. Neither one of them serve the Lord Jesus Christ so we choose who will be better for the country. I'm not going to pick the socialist.

    Define moral. Read up on the mormon/freemasonry religion. Satan appears as an angel of light. I'll pray, as always, but not vote this time.

    Your certain he is moral are you? I just got done reading a few books on Hitlers campaign to control Germany prior to WWII (The Big One). After reading each of these three books, I was struck by how naive the German people were or how their wish for a country that would pull itself up by its boot straps could possibly had been so gullible to put a miscreant in office & give him both Chancellery & Presidency (essentially full control). Now I'm not drawing the same exact conclusion but it provides pause for reflection.

    I dont like Romney, I dont trust Romney & I am very skeptical the guy is good for the country but my country is being forced into some very grim decisions..... the bottom line is, that it is what it is. God help us all....we are being destroyed from within.

    Out of our two choices, he's more moral than the other choice! I do NOT want President Obama to continue in the White House and they only way to do that is to vote for Governor Romney. No, he's not the best choice out there but he's the only other choice that will prevent another 4 years of the disaster we've had.

    And I repeat...I dont think Romney is so much the moral man you paint him. I have been reading some stuff that would convince me of it otherwise. Also, in speaking to some Baptist Pastors over the last 6 months, they have also mentioned lots of concerns of Romny's Mormon agenda not being honorable. We will see how this plays out but I do not expect to be voting for him unless this is crystal clear in the back of my mind & this Rev Graham thing has me wondering. Hopefully the Romney administration will address this, but as of today ....Im on the fence.

    The question is not "How does he measure up to an ideal?" but instead "Is he better than the other guy?" We're going to get one or the other. Do we want a man who at least TRIES to serve a god that he believes in or one who comes up with his own rules?

    Blunt answer: I do not want a Mormon Cultist in the White House. I believe they have hidden agendas that are not evident to those outside of Mormonism. Frederick Niechi (Sp) was serious about serving the Teutonic/ Arian Gods also but he was a nut. Still he was used by the Nazis to help create a Nazi Religion. I wouldn't want him in any position of authority either.

    Lastly, who is the God Romney believes in....have you ever done a study of the God of the Mormons?

    But the President's humanism and friendship with Islam doesn't concern you?

    Yes, we dare call a man whose faith is based in deception and secrecy moral.(smh) It would be hilarious if not so sad.

    The Church seems to be better known now for compromising on everything than it is for anything else.

    The disaster will continue no matter who is in office.

    He's not moral. That's just the line evangelicals have taken to saying because it helps them feel OK about voting for romney.

    Who IS 100% moral?

    Based on that, Christians should never vote for anyone!

    Thats the bottom line. We have 3 choices.
    Vote for Obama.
    Vote for Romney.
    Don't vote.

    IMO, if you don't vote for either one, you are indeed casting a vote. Your lack of voting will not cancel out a vote by someone else. You are allowing their vote to stand for you.

    Personally, I don't like either candidate. However, I will vote for Romney in order to cancel out a vote by someone else for Obama.

    IMO, if I don't at least try to cancel out a single vote for Obama, I'll have no right to complain about anything Obama does, if he gets another 4 years. Four years without the restraints of having to run for a 2nd term in office.

    Which is something I don't think most people have considered in their decision-making.

    Yep. We live in an amazing country with the right to vote for our leaders. While our choices might stink, we still have a choice. You are also right about not voting will allow a vote for the other to stand. Additionally, I really feel that if you have not participated in the process, you have no right to complain when it doesn't go well.
