Letter: Look beyond candidate's religion
Wednesday, January 11, 2012
What is it that people don’t like about Mitt Romney? The fact that he is called a Mormon.
I hear news commentators say that the evangelical Christians won’t vote for him because of it. Mitt Romney is a Christian. He is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is not The Mormon Church. Mormon is a nickname and has been used for the people in the church after a prophet/historian named Mormon.
Vote for the man, his faith in God, principles, integrity, experience, and leadership. Not the church he goes to.
As a nation, we need to rise above religious bigotry.
