Mormons are some of the nicest people I've ever met, but you guys believe you're going to become "like gods" if you do things properly, right?

Revelation 3:21

Anyone who has read the Bible knows the truth, and the truth will set you free.

Yeah. The gist of it is just as our earthly parents teach/guide us to become like them (assuming they're good examples), God does the same.

I wish I knew. Personally I think it's "failed presidential candidate syndrome". Look at the last 4. Hillary, Romney, McCain, Kerry. They all hate America. Like hatred borne from shame or something.

Or just corruption. There are rumors that Romney is tied up into the Ukraine thing with Biden and Pelosi. Either way I promise you we hate Romney here. Every day I drive by a billboard that states "Mr Romney Please Resign".

That’s the corruptive potency of politics for ya. Not much else to it.

Mitt Romney is a MINO. He does not embody our beliefs.

He is corrupt as hell.

I'm a Mormon as well and I cannot stand Mitt Romney. He already demoted his faith during his 2012 bid for President. I also believe him to be corrupt as 'TheSwiftPepe' mentioned above.

Since Mormons believe in striving for perfection over the length of an eternity, through Jesus Christ and repentance, we are therefore very susceptible to blackmail for our imperfections.

There's no reason to alienate your Mormon friends and neighbors. Most of us fight just as fiercely for the same things as the rest of you. Life, liberty, and eternal happiness. Seek us out when things get bad. We can be great allies.

We're raised to be conservatives, without being told who to vote for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY9f0WIJ4Jg

Yeah, OK. Teaching and learning is cool, but I just don't like where it leads though. In other words, as humans, we can strive for perfection, but we cannot achieve it because only God is perfect.

Don't want to get on your case about it, because I can tell you're sincere in walking the good path.

Thanks for answering. I appreciate it.
