I believe Romney also forgot to mention that Mormonism teaches that Jesus is the spiritual brother of Lucifer. Try finding THAT in your Bible!

Or does the salvation take place independently of how one conceives Jesus?? Isn't this like a witness on the stand answering only the question he wishes to and then taking the Fifth (or the First, or the No Test Oath) when the answer might be counterproductive? ? sandy From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Friedman, Howard M.
