“….Try to keep the religious bigotry in check, or at least rational….”.I try to be factual. Those who have studied church wealth, including Time Magazine, have concluded that the Mormon church is the wealthiest on a per capita basis, and possibly on a total basis in America, although the Cathlic church would be up there too in total assets. One study concludes the LDS church probably is higher in liquid assets. The LDS church is also one of the fastest growing churches in America. .I could broaden my statement to “Mormon church members”, but either could apply.
So what’s your point. You spout a bunch of figures without drawing a conclusion or offering an alternative of which is the wealthiest church, along with supporting figures. But I don’t really care if they are one, two, or third wealthiest church. Many think they are wealthiest, but nobody really knows for sure because it is not public information. What is known is that they are rapidly growing their membership, many are very wealthy, and they believe in tithing. Romney will not suffer for lack of political donations from the church/church members and many will do so to fulfil church prophesy, which is all quite legal.

So Republicans apparently have no core convictions, that’s what’s so.

You beat me to it, that was my first thought. Save money on production by changing the graphics.

There’s not enough money in the world to get ex-Governor Romney elected POTUS.
