		<description><![CDATA[Note: This is not an attempt to label Mitt Romney a racist. It is merely a discussion of the accusation, fair or not, that arises due to his belief in Mormonism.
Discussion of Mitt Romney&#8217;s Mormonism has, in general, been largely avoided by his fellow presidential candidates, though there is background noise about it on political talk shows. With an African-American President looming on the Democratic side next year, and now with a serious African-American GOP candidate in Herman Cain, it seems inevitable that Governor Romney&#8217;s faith will be taken to task again because many have accused Mormonism as being racist. But is this a fair argument?

The merits of such charges are beyond the scope of this article, but critics point to writings of early Mormon prophets, the Book of Mormon itself, and the fact that blacks were not permitted entry into Mormonism until 1978 as reasons why Mormonism has been ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently discussed an incident where a Mormon couple accidentally left their child to die in a hot car for 17 hours.
Did you notice that I mentioned their religion?
Why do writers of such stories feel the need to attach a person&#8217;s religion to a tragedy in order to somehow make it seem more poignant? We hear it all the time.

&#8220;So-and-so was an active member of his church before he was gunned down.&#8221; Awww, he must have been a good guy then, right?
Why does this happen? Why are people who attend church automatically hailed as the good guys?
Does being religious make a person&#8217;s death &#8211; or their life &#8211; more meaningful? And does it have to be a Christian here in America in order to get maximum impact? How would the response be if it were a Muslim couple that left their child in a car? Oh that&#8217;s a little better ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You found this article probably because you were online searching for information on a specific conspiracy theory, or even just looking for general conspiracy information. Maybe trying to find new conspiracy theories in which to subscribe?
If you were to find information contrary to what you already believe, would you read it and consider it with an open mind? Or would you dismiss it and believe the writer was crazy or misinformed.
Do you believe in many conspiracy theories?
Before you click the back button on your browser to go see what else Google can come up with to validate your opinion, think for yourself for a change and read on.

Most people searching the net for information on conspiracy theories are not looking for the whole truth, but merely whatever &#8220;facts&#8221; will validate their existing opinion. This is on both sides of the fence, the believers and non-believers. It just stands, however, that ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“The Revelation of the Method” is one of those “granddaddies of all conspiracy theories.” This is your standard elitist conspiracy theory in which an elite few are secretly pulling the strings on humanity and that they are slowly revealing this to us. We are becoming conditioned to learn and accept this control. Currently we are secret slaves to them, but over time we will become knowing slaves to them. This revelation is done in many ways, such as the “sacrifice” of Princess Diana, the events of 911, and hidden subliminal messages in the media.
It makes for great reading. Unfortunately some people actually believe it.

People like Art Bell and Michael A. Hoffman are among the leading conspiracy theorists in the country. If there is a conspiracy to be created or promoted, these guys are on the front lines. They aren’t objective parties because their livelihood banks on the promotion of these ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[He’s coming! For those who believe in him and who have been good, Santa will come and give his wondrous gifts. Billions believe in him, and you should too! If you are on his “good” list, you will receive his gifts on the appointed day, but you never know when he’ll show up. He knows everything – even your thoughts &#8211; and can tell if you’ve been good or bad. He loves everyone and wants everyone to be good. He lives forever and sits on a throne atop the world.
All hail Santa!
Now… let’s change two words in the paragraph above…
