Serious question since Mitt is against the new Alabama abortion legislation.
Does the Mormon Church have an ex-communication process? I intensely dislike Mitt Romney. That is all. |
|
No idea if they can or not, but it would be fun to watch that POS squirm
|
|
Yes. Won’t happen, but they do have a process. I doubt differences over legislation would suffice.
|
|
You need to speak out against child sexual abuse for that to happen.

Quoted: Not merely a difference over legislation. This is a serious moral issue. Supporting the killing of babies is evil. View Quote Only time I’ve read about it for the LDS Church was for someone who publicly called out the church about their views on women as priests/church authority, and someone who did the same on their views on homosexuals. Took years in both cases despite calling out their church directly and publicly. So...unless you catch Mitt chugging coffee-tobacco-alcohol smoothies and cursing Joseph Smith, ain’t gonna happen. |

If they wouldn't kick out Harry Reid, Romney is safe.
Not that I like Romney, cause fuck him, but does the new Alabama law include provisions for rape or incest and mother's health? Cause if not I could see why he opposed it. I honestly don't know |

More than half this site would support a federal abortion ban.
They’d then swear up and down, with a straight face, that the definitive trait of Conservatives is wanting to restore Constitutional limits and leave people alone, and that only Liberals want to use legal compulsion to force certain behaviors. |

No different that what MLM and ponzi schemers do, and Utah is rife with those according to the FBI. https://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/beware-of-affinity-fraud |

Oh yeah, well Orange Man Bad! And Trump's a big meanie! So there!

View Quote But in short, plenty of people earn excommunication from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Romney won't be one of them unless he starts directly attacking the church's doctrinal positions or commits some sin worthy of excommunication. |

Having actually read his statement, he said that he is against abortion except in cases of rape, incest, or where the life of the mother is at risk. That is basically the position of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
While I disadain Romney, his statement on this is not against the policy of his church. |

The Alabama law still allows for abortion in cases where the mother’s life is at risk. It just eliminated exceptions for rape and incest. Before everyone jumps in the tar and feather Mormons mobbing, where is GD on that one? How many of you agree with Alabama’s law eliminating abortion in cases of rape or incest?

View Quote "She said she was going to kill herself if she had kid number 9". It's like finding a doc that will prescribe pain pills or social security disability claims. Why do we kill children because their father is an asshole? (Rape). Incest. Ditto. |

You can see here that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is one of the most anti-abortion denominations out there.

All anyone has to do to jump through that giant loophole is find a doc that will sign off on the fact that "your life is in danger". "She said she was going to kill herself if she had kid number 9".

After I read what Romney said, I posted that it is not out of line with the position of the LDS Church. Mitt may be a flip flopper and RINO, but his statement on the Alabama law is consistent with the position of his church. I am not defending Romney so much as I am the position of the LDS Church on abortion. When he ran for Governor of Massachusetts, he took a position on abortion that would get him elected. He had to change that position to get elected in Utah. That said, the fact he flip-flopped does not indicate that all Mormons are that way. It was just Mitt being a slimy politician. In this instance, his statement is in line with the LDS Church. Whether he truly believes that or not is questionable. The position of the LDS Church is not in question though. They have solidly been anti abortion in all cases except rape, incest, and where the life of the mother is at risk. |

View Quote Abortion is not justified killing, it's murder. Now civil society is under attack to fold abortion into the normal acceptable course of life. Including the new twist on ending live birth. Next up, euthenasia for genetic defects to purify the race, for age to reduce costs and open jobs, for mental illness as it's inconvenient and costly, for intelligence and beauty simply because stupid ugly people are icky. I hope my grand children are smart, fit, impressive warriors with an intense burning love for freedom and deep burning hate of communist ideals and tyranny and intent on leaving their world a freer place. And a true love for their children, not the current convenience application "it's for the children" for advancing noxious political schemes. |
