What Mormons Really Believe (?)

I really don't know how much of this Mormons really believe. It certainly is bizarre, but that is true of many religions.

1. I don't really care about a candidate's religion unless their agenda is to advance its

principles while in office. I really don't care whether Romney believes that Jesus was a space alien from the planet Kolob. But if his belief turns off the evangelical nuts and they don't vote for him then I'm all for introducing religion into the conversation. Too much is at stake to not take every advantage. If the way he wears his tie costs him the election with the nuts on the right then I'm all for discussing his choice in ties.
