So, as you well know (unless you live under a rock) Mitt Romney is running for President. You might NOT know anything else about the man, but you know he's running for Prez, and that he's a Mormon. Because that appears to be a big damn deal– a Mormon running for President of the United States.
And everyone is asking, "Are we ready for that?"
The answer: It would seem not!
A poll conducted in June by the Los Angeles Times and Bloomberg found that 35% of registered voters said they would not consider voting for a Mormon for President. Only Islam would be a more damaging faith for a candidate, the poll found.
Okay. I can imagine that to be true… but I want to hear it from you, the Jewcy readers… are YOU ready for that?
Something about this bugs me.
Don't get me wrong… I think the Book of Mormon sounds INSANE. Indians and books of gold and 10th century prophets. But as I've said before– that's because it's a RELIGIOUS TEXT! I also think that the Book of Revelation sounds INSANE (though we've had plenty of Christian Presidents)! And if I weren't a Jew, I'd think that Genesis sounded pretty INSANE as well.
More than that, I think we've elected a ridiculous number of non-Mormon douchebags to office, and it seems irrelevent which particular brand of religious insanity occupies the White House. A douchebag is a douchebag.
What do you think? Does a Mormon scare you more than a Methodist?
Why?
