my post. You state repeatedly how important it is to <STRONG>you</STRONG>
to know "<STRONG>every</STRONG> candidates" religious positons and how they
would affect their political positions and yet the questions are only put to a
very select few. (one actually) Forgive me but I suspect that having religious
convictions of any type is a major disqualifier for you and that the
answers to any questions you may pose are simply additional opportunities to
poor mouth a believing community member who might have the questionable
judgement, in your view, to want to run for elected office.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>For one reason, as far as I know, Schmidt does not attend
and occasionally preach in a church which mixes religion and politics as
Bouma does (as you can see from the quotes below). Another reason: Bouma
has been asked in a public forum about his religious beliefs and their
relations to his political beliefs -- he refused to answer claiming the
question out of bounds. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Every candidate ought tell us what their political positions
are and why they hold those positions including their religious reasons, if
any. So far as I know no one has asked Schmidt these questions.
Perhaps someone should; perhaps you.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>In a previous post, I opined that it is not only
important for a candidate to state his positions, but why she/he believes
them. It is important to understand how a candidate arrives at his
conclusions in order to judge in part his desirability and/or fitness for
office.

comment this week about Mormons believing that Jesus and Satan were

the Cults. Not only do they indeed believe that Jesus and Satan were
brothers, they deny the Virgin Birth, the sufficiency of Christ's
death on the cross to atone for all sins and such things as God was a
man once just as we are. He achieved such a state of holiness in his
flesh that he was rewarded by becoming the god of this planet. He

men oppose the truth — men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith
is concerned, are rejected. 9 But they will not get very far because,
as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.
NIV Did you ever wonder why the J.W.s and the Mormons and their ilk
always do their legwork in the middle of the day? It's because the
