LYNCHBURG, Virginia (Reuters) - Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney sought on Saturday to calm fears that his Mormon faith would be an obstacle to evangelical Christian voters, stressing shared conservative values while acknowledging religious differences.
In a speech at conservative Christian Liberty University - where it is taught that Mormonism is a cult - Romney stressed their common goal of service to God and declared his opposition to gay marriage, a position essential for winning the majority of evangelicals in November.

Someone at Right Wing Watch has been posting about all the rules the students have to live by. It is disgusting. I guess the only way they can indoctrinate those students is if they control their every move. If they are that secure in their religious beliefs, why do they have to be so controlling?
