Mitt Romney Religion

Mitt Romney - Religion (1-10)

The religion of Mitt Romney is Mormonism. It was the religion that Mitt Romney was born into, the religion that Mitt Romney served as a missionary, and the religion Mitt Romney eventually led as a Presiding High Priest.

In 1966, the 19 year-old, sixth generation Mormon Mitt Romney left for France to promote his religion as a Mormon missionary. In 1968, he was appointed president of the Mormon mission in France and led the Mormon missionaries under his command to baptize a record 200 French people into the Mormon cult.

Mitt Romney's rise in Mormonism continued after his return from France. From 1981 to 1986, he served as the "High Priest" (Ward Bishop) of the Mormon assembly in Belmont, a suburb of Boston, Massachusetts.

In 1986, Mitt Romney was elevated to "Presiding High Priest" (Stake President) over 12 Mormon assemblies in and around Boston, and held that position for the next 10 years.

What exactly is Mitt Romney's Mormonism?

Founded in the 1820s in western New York by Joseph Smith, Mormonism claims three sources for inspiration: book of Mormon, the Bible, and the teachings of its various priests and prophets over the years. But the teaching of Mormon priests and prophets contradict each other, the Bible and the book of Mormon, which also contradicts the Bible.

For example, Mormons believe that native Americans are Jews from Israel. They believe that people who have died, even centuries ago, can turn into Mormons and that wearing Mormon underwear with pagan symbols over the breasts and genitals protects them.
