Mitt Romney and Mormonism

[Alex]

Um...I'm not talking about the practitioners not knowing what there involved in but them not being willing to tell people not yet within the circle. Romney knows everything he needs to know about Mormonism; the question is whether he is open with other people about what those things are.

I'm not sure how being a half-hearted religious person is an improvement. I have more respect for people who realizing what they believe commit themselves to it wholeheartedly. I just thing they're wrong.

Not quite what I was getting at. By the time people get to the inner circle, they've long since committed themselves to believing what they're told. And I wasn't really relating that to Romney in any way.

Not so much half-hearted as disconnected from dogma or perhaps willing to follow their heart when it differs from the religion they otherwise consider themselves as believing in.
