I posted a link a month ago about Gingrich owning a nonprofit company and a for-profit company. He got donations to the nonprofit, which bought its supplies from the for-profit. Then the nonprofit yelped to contributors that its expenses were too high, so could they please donate more, which they did. Then it bought more stuff at the same inflated prices from his company, etc...a circular process. Everyone wonders why he's running, since the fat old guy can't win, and there's the answer...to make money.
Gingrich basically lost his job as Speaker over a similar scenario. I think his predecessor, Jim Wright?, lost his job over the same kind of thing. In Newt's case, it was a technical issue about how he filled out some legal forms. In Wright's case, he wrote a book, and mysterious organizations were buying them by the truck load. Money laundering.
PACs aren't allowed to campaign for specific candidates. Also, who the hell cares, since there is no federal cap on donating to a PAC. Yet another Isikoff hit piece. He should go back to inciting riots in the Arab world by writing lies about Korans being flushed at Gitmo.
Somewhat. They also place the Book of Mormon on a par with the Bible and some sects place it above the Bible. Biblical scruptures are clear that it is the only authority. I might add the Mormons get their name from a book of satans owned by their founder and they are named after a devil called Mormana (or something like that- I heard that on a 60 Minutes interview with one of the Presidents of the Mormons). No, there is no true connection between Mormons and Yahweh.
When it was ruled that corporations should have no cap on donations a few years back you could see this was going to happen.
uhh...What? I'm Mormon and have no idea what you're talking about except the Book of Mormon and Bible stuff. I'm hoping this was TIC...
No. That's a common misconception. I think it comes from a misunderstanding of what Latter-day Saints (Mormons) believe heaven to be like. BTW, my understanding is that Christians were people who believe Christ is their savior and redeemer not necessarily God the Father. There are many sects that believe in the Trinity (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit as one entity) and others that believe in the Godhead (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit as 3 distinct personages unified in purpose with specific roles to play). That's how I've understood it anyway. I would classify a person that believes in either structure of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit as Christian as long as they believe that they can't get to where God is after we die without Christ's atoning sacrifice.
oh i thought that mormons thought that the only way to salvation was through the mormon church, my bad
There are some things Mormons claim exclusivity to, but who will be saved isn't one of them. There are some details that explain why people think what you thought, but I don't have time to go into them at the moment.
