Owner59 -> Perry fan/fundie-preacher calls Romney`s faith,"a cult"....Mitt,"a cultist" (10/7/2011 8:24:11 PM)

http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/pastor-endorsed-perry-friday-says-romney-cultist-214202497.html

Dr. Robert Jeffress, the influential pastor of a Dallas-based megachurch, offered his formal endorsement of Texas Gov. Rick Perry Friday at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C. Friday, shortly before he explained why Perry's opponent atop the GOP field, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, is a cultist.

Jeffress introduced Perry before he addressed the annual gathering for social conservatives, making a special point to emphasize Perry's Christian faith--as opposed to Romney's, who a Mormon, which Jeffress said was a "cult."


"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," Jeffress said after Perry's speech, adding that Perry had welcomed his endorsement. "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."


Way to go GOP! [8|]

Saw that.... Romney belongs to a cult.... Perry is "obviously" the only candidate worthy of a christian vote. But, if it comes down to Romney vs Obama, he will vote for Romney.

Can we say... Massive hypocrite?

i don't see the fucking problem here. mormonism is a cult.

Owner, how long you going to hang on to that red-shifted image of Sarah Palin? She done said nope herself. You don't have to keep advertising your hate for her, you know. It's kind of creepy in a stalking kind of way. 



StrangerThan -> RE: Perry fan/fundie-preacher calls Romney`s faith,"a cult"....Mitt,"a cultist" (10/8/2011 2:26:32 AM)

The problem is that the Republican party exists.

The really funny thing here is, is that it started as sex cult, and they were literally run out of New York, Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois (where Smith was shot and killed by the Illinois milita) respectively.

Calvinism itself is of course, a cult as well however, and the doctrines of predispensationalism and predestination in particular are, in many ways, the antithesis of Christianity and New Testament teachings.

I am really not seeing the hypocrisy. The quote said that they were both moral people but that one was a Christian and one belonged to a cult. It would be better to have the Christian in office.

I do however find the OP to be hypocritical. He is bashing the GOP for a person calling Mormonism a cult yet uses the term "fundie" to describe him. Both are being used in a derogatory fashion to describe religious beliefs.

And yes, I am aware that there are many Christian folks who see Mormonism as a cult. Also several other denominations. I am okay with their belief of that and their speaking of that. As long as they do not resort to illegal acts. Freedom of Conscience is a wonderful thing.

probably, an empty ideologue is an empty ideologue regardless of what fucking flavour they are.

You dont?

He insists only a "christian" should be president, yet when given the choice of a "christian" (Obama) or a mormon (Romney) he would choose the mormon.



HannahLynHeather -> RE: Perry fan/fundie-preacher calls Romney`s faith,"a cult"....Mitt,"a cultist" (10/8/2011 7:39:51 AM)

that's valid. tazzy speaks truth.

e2a: i bet you never thought you'd see me post those words eh? [:D]



Iamsemisweet -> RE: Perry fan/fundie-preacher calls Romney`s faith,"a cult"....Mitt,"a cultist" (10/8/2011 7:40:36 AM)

Ok, Mormonism is a cult, and a pretty stupid one, as these things go. Baptism for the dead? Magic underwear? It makes about as much sense as worshipping roman gods. However, it has been around long enough that it is now mainstream. Hard to believe, but the same thing will probably happen with Scientology someday. Now that may be the only religion stranger than Mormonism.
What is really funny is that the Christians are fighting among themselves. Imagine what would happen if there was prayer allowed in public schools, there would be a holy war to decide which prayer

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego!!!!

So what, they (Christian, Muslims, Jews, etc.) are all patriarchal death cults of the angry desert god.

Mormonry is just one of the newer incarnations.
