HeiressofBickworth's JournalMormon Prophesy worries me in this context
from Wiki:
"Writers such as Richard Abanes and Elaine Wolff have speculated, on the basis of the prophecy, that Mormons expect the US to eventually become a "Mormon-ruled theocracy divinely ordained to 'not only direct the political affairs of the Mormon community, but eventually those of the United States and ultimately the world'", and that "a Mormon, if he were elected president, WOULD TAKE HIS ORDERS FROM SALT LAKE CITY."
emphasis added)
When JFK made his speech about his Catholic religion, he definitively stated that he would NOT take orders from Rome. In light of the concerns about Romney, he needs to make a similar statement to allay fears about his religious ties. Of course, as we know, Romney being Romney means he will never take a single position on anything. Any statement about taking orders from SLC can't be believed because, like the little boy who called wolf, Romney takes too many opposing positions on not only many, but seemingly ALL issues.
Our cafeteria food was so bad
there were signs in the bathrooms "flush twice, it's a long way to the kitchen". We also had a student boycott -- and that was before student boycotts became common-place. We were on Huntley-Brinkley that night.
I remember
in my more feminist youth, I knew of the movie and the judge's decision and was determined to see it. I had arranged with a woman friend that we would meet for a drink before the movie and then attend. I was in the arranged place at the appointed time, but she didn't show up. I was annoyed to say the least. Well, there I was, a single mother having hired a babysitter for the evening and I wasn't going to go home without seeing the movie! I went to the movie by my self. It was in a very seedy theater downtown Seattle. I wasn't harassed or teased nor did anyone approach me. When the movie was over, I went to my car and drove home. Strike one for liberty!!!!!
