Romney's Final Speech?

Genesis 1:26 (New International Version): Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness.

Just before the death of Stephen (Acts 7:50+), it is written: "But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God." Don't you need a body to have a right side. Surely God is not a cameleon.

Truly, I am not sure who really can be called a Christian. Our confessing Jesus as our Savior while claiming to be saved and then acting like hypocrits hardly makes us Christians no matter what religious group one hangs onto. We gotta do better. I need to work on my personal relationship with God, shaving off my imperfections and daily sins rather than shooting down someone who appears to have a great deal of moral character and stability.

I know that this election has got to be more than about religious rightness or wrongness. We need people with vision, guts, solid core values, ones that will protect familes, etc., etc.

I have just started to get connected with the parties' races. I come from a very eclectic religious background. Mitt seems like a good fit for what I am seeking.

Please do not choose to rebuttal this comment. I will not be rreturning to respond. Have a great day everyone. May God bless you all to be gentle and considerate of others.
