()
About this ebook
Mitt Romney is a Mormon, but does that mean he’s a Christian? Does he belong to a cult? Does he wear funny Mormon underwear? These questions and more are answered in this accessible and concise introduction to Mormonism, in which two sociologists of religion take an objective and often humorous look at 2012 presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s beliefs. Geared to voters wondering whether Romney’s Mormon faith should affect their vote, “Could I Vote for Mormon for President?” comes at key time for those in search of unbiased information about the candidate and his faith. “Cragun and Phillips’ irreverent guide for the perplexed tells you everything you need to know about Mormonism this election season.” — Mark Silk, Professor of Religion in Public Life, Trinity College
