Odd that Mitt is so intent on stoking up tensions with Russia, Iran, etc., and seemingly totally uninterested in resolving the current wars, to the point where he doesn't even mention Afghanistan.
One possible reason is because he thinks Afghanistan is going great and everywhere else should also go KABOOM, because after this sinful world is destroyed by war and conflict, the LDS can rule with Jesus from Missouri for 1000 years. WOOT!
No I am not "bashing" this is what they actually believe and the "latter days" ref means it is happening SOON.
I don't know for the life of me why it's OK to make such a BFD over Rev Wright "scandal" and "secret Muslim" conspiracies and NOBODY brings up these creepy LDS end times beliefs!

(11,495 posts)Because like many other groups that "THINK" they are the chosen ones of God, they want the end to come so "they" can take control of things after the Bible prophecies take place. They actually believe that they and they alone will be the ones who are either left alive, or that they will be the ones who take control of worlds power and run things the way "their" religion thinks.
Mitt wants to be the one who bring this about because that is what the Mormons believe will happen, a Mormon becomes president and will "save" the nation and bring about the "end of times"! The Mormons call it the "White Horse prophecy" and you can do a search on the internet to find out all about it. Of course all of these religions that think they are the "chosen ones" will never admit to what they really believe, but their members all know they play a big part in bringing the "end of times" into play.
