All faith is unprovable by it's nature. What any person believes is what they believe; since the hearafter is unprovable, what difference does it make if one person believes heaven or hell's definition is 'truer' than another's? That is nothing but interjecting human stupidity into the affairs of the All Mighty. Who among us is so arrogant as to announce they know God's Will? if you know someone who makes such a claim, run away as fast as you can. That person is either out for personal gain or has deep seated mental problems.
Some major religions don't believe in a hearafter at all. So far, I've never met anyone I personally knew who came back to tell me with certainty what it's like in paradise or the hot place.
I don't support Mitt, but my religion, and his, has nothing to do with my decision. We are voting for a political leader, not a religious leader after all, and few of one or the other is any damned good at both at the same time.
I do not think we should be prejudiced against a candidate because of his or her religion or lack of religion.
Voting against Romney because he is a Mormon is something that not only do I disagree with, but it I think it is a kind of bigotry which I despise.
I am not voting for Romney because I do not agree with his political views nor the Republican platform. I have nothing against his religion, and do not question his intelligence, his abilities, his patriotism nor his intentions. He is not a bad person. His political ideology is just different from mine ... and that is all.

It is easy to know God's will. Read the bible and find out.
Ever hear of angels.. different kinds of angels.. who knows what the mysteries of God are. We walk by faith and we believe in the God of Abraham through Jesus Christ. We see through a glass darkly now , but we will come into the glory of the Lord in the here after.

The concept of pre-mortal existence is an early and fundamental doctrine of Mormonism. In 1833, early in the Latter Day Saint movement, its founder Joseph Smith, Jr. taught that human souls are co-eternal with God the Father just as Jesus is co-eternal with God the Father, "Man was also in the beginning with God. Intelligence, or the light of truth, was not created or made, neither indeed can be."[6]
That's just what my Bible says, too. I was hangin' out with God and Jesus before I was even conceived.

You sound like a reasonable thinking person. Maybe you may get more enlightenment if you see the movie 2016 Obama's America.. then with your eyes opened to what Obama stands for you can make a truly reasonable decision on who to vote for and what ideology Obama stands for.

Joesph Smith saw God and Jesus, bro. He's more awesome than God. Know why? He can break God's rules.
King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
Wait, nevermind, a whole lot of other people have seen God and lived; here's the link.
Or skip the link entirely and just go to the Bible:
Genesis 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

Obviously you know nothing about Mitt Romney, the corporate raider. Or you choose to deny it.
