I believe most if not all the candidates believe in god, or allah or whatever. I fail to see how his mormon faith came into context at all here, but maybe i'm missing something.

To me, these are two seperate discussions. You are right...Romney is trying to lump Mormons into every religious category there is so he can fly under the "I have faith" banner..I'm no different than Catholics etc. So..

1) Check out "Under the Banner of Heaven"...That will give you an idea of what Mormons were really about and where they came from. There are specific issues I have with the Mormon faith and they are very clear in this book.

2) DTS55 doesn't care about Mormons...it's about religion and how they try and stuff their beliefs down our throats because we are "One Nation Founded Under god" We are all free to worship whatever god we want...until it ain't the one we believe in. Then the fun begins
