" If you want to know what Catholics believe, you don't ask a Baptist or a Moslem, you ask a Catholic. What most people do not know is that the LDS people believe, not as doctrine but as a matter of fact, that the Constitution of the United States was written by men who were inspired of God to write it, and that the United States was created through the inspiration of God through good men raised up for that purpose. No people in this country are more respectful and committed to the Constitution than the LDS people. There is no possible danger of any kind to the Constitution coming from the LDS religion. Anyone who says otherwise is fearmongering. I have an idea that Romney's campaign is going to reveal a lot more about some Americans than it will about Romney. br> -- Stephen Hayes br> Utah /p>

It should be said that it is not unconstitutional for an individual to argue against and vote against a person of a particular religion because of that religion. It is not even clearly immoral. It might be justified in particular cases. There can be debate with people like Antle on these questions.

p>Surprisingly, while some have warned that gay marriage might lead to polygamy, a Canadian judge has ruled that a couple can have more than two legal parents -- a lesbian couple, plus the involved biological sperm source. So I have a new word to think about: polyparenthood. br> -- Richard L.A. Schaefer br> Dubuque, Iowa /p>

I'm glad to find out the virgin birth is just a metaphor, Moses didn't part the Red Sea (the Sea Reeds was much deeper then), manna didn't fall from heaven and Jesus didn't heal anyone he was just the proto-Oprah. For the last 40+ years I believed that was all fact sort of like I believed Democrats, despite the evidence, were still patriots.

p>As a conservative Romney is my guy. Better a believing Mormon that someone who supports the National Council of Churches or has faith in the UN. Unfortunately, thanks to the continued conservative melt down and mythologizing of Reagan, the nomination is McCain's to lose. br> -- Michael Tomlinson
