Dr Robert Jeffress, the senior pastor of Dallas-based mega-church, the 10,000-member strong First Baptist Church of Dallas, Texas, has declared presidential wanna-be Mitt Romney of Massachusetts a satanic cultist and therefore cannot be elected president of a Christian America? According to the pastor, Mormons are not Christians hence Mitt Romney whose faith is Mormonism is not a christian but a member of a cult - demonic cult, one may add? In his statement, the pastor said "Do we want someone who is a conservative out of convenience, or one who is a conservative out of conviction? Do we want a candidate who is a good, moral person, or one who is a born-again follower of Jesus Christ? We understand Mormonism is not Christianity and thus the difference between somebody who's moral and good like Mitt Romney and a true born-again follower of Christ, like Rick Perry. I really think the decision for conservative evangelical Christians right now is going to be, do we prefer somebody who is truly a believer in Jesus Christ, or somebody who is a good moral person but he's a part of a cult. It's not politically correct to say, but it's true. Mormonism is a cult. And for those reasons, besides Governor Romney's lack of consistency on social issues, I think Rick Perry is the most electable choice among Christian conservatives."
Icheoku says wonderful as a house divided among itself is destined to collapse; and now that Republicans are devouring themselves, the Democrats and President Obama should stay on the sidelines and watch the Republicans implode for good. So with all the Mormon votes now lost by Rick Perry, let us see how only the fundamentalist Christians are going to pull the rabbit out of the hat and put him in the White House in 2012. A very divisive people giving Christianity and Jesus Christ a bad name; how dare they brand another man's faith and convictions cultism; but hey it is the South and they hold weird views on so many things. These are the people who see abortion of fetus as murder yet they joyfully execute adults in their prisons all the time and Icheoku wonders whether to this people, blood clot is now more of a human life than a fully grown adult? Anyway, it is gratifying to know that MItt Romney is a cultist and America does not elect cultists as president? So President Barack Hussein Obama's second term, here we come!
Romney, and any Mormon offended by being referred to as cultists, need to be asked why they adhere to a religion whose prophet, Joseph Smith, referred to Christianity, in general, as being cultic. He actually, claimed that God Himself referred to Christianity as “all wrong,” an “abomination,” “all corrupt” and “far from me”—this is the very foundation of the Mormon religion.
