In case you forgot, or missed it, a lot of American evangelicals are not exactly enamored with Mitt Romney: Satan Cheers Graham, Osteen, Starr for Not Telling the Truth About Mormonism.

ST PETERSBURG, Fla., Jan. 9, 2012 /Christian Newswire/ — Bill Keller, the world’s leading Internet Evangelist and the founder of liveprayer.com, with over 2.4 million subscribers worldwide reading the daily devotional he has written every morning for 12 years on the issues of the day from a Biblical worldview, says Satan is cheering Rev. Franklin Graham, Joel Osteen, and the former special prosecutor during the Clinton impeachment investigation Kenn Starr for being too gutless to tell the truth about Mormon cult member Mitt Romney.
 
In the past weeks as it becomes more likely former Mass. Governor and member of the Mormon cult Mitt Romney will win the Republican nomination to run against President Barack Obama, more and more high profile Christians are putting politics over souls by not telling the truth about the true beliefs of the Mormon cult and why a Mormon is no more a Christian than a Muslim is.
 
Keller, who in 2007 was in the national news after coining the phrase, ‘A vote for Romney is a vote for Satan,” said, “It is sad to see a man of God like Franklin Graham go into the nation media and state that he would vote for a cult member like Romney whose beliefs lead the eternal souls of men to hell. Osteen is a gutless coward, nothing more than a motivational speaker, who ignorantly lies to people by saying that a Mormon is a Christian, when Mormon doctrine is 100% inconsistent with Biblical Christianity. Starr, well known for his Christian views, made the political case why he could vote for a Mormon without once dealing with the spiritual implications of having a cult member as President.”
 
Keller went on to say, “People are free to believe whatever they want. I have no problem with a person of any faith running for office. The only thing I have ever asked Romney or any member of his cult like Glenn Beck to do is to tell the truth. Romney LIES when he calls himself a Christian, since he and members of his cult believe their ‘jesus’ was created through the sexual union of their ‘god’ who was once a man, and Mary, meaning their ‘jesus’ is NOT a deity, is the brother of Lucifer, and once visited the United States. The ‘god’ and ‘jesus of the Mormon cult is NOT the God and Jesus of the Bible, and the final authority for Mormons is NOT the Bible, but the writings of their cult’s founder Joseph Smith who was a documented con man, pedophile, polygamist, racist, and murderer.”
 
Keller concluded, “Listen, if Mitt Romney wants to wear magical underwear with Satanic markings that he believes protects him and thinks he will die and become the god of his own planet with an endless supply of women to create spirit babies with, that is up to him. I think it is journalistic malpractice for the media not to at least tell the truth about what Romney and those in his cult believe, while calling anyone with the guts to tell the truth about his cult a bigot. It is inexcusable for Christian leaders like Graham, Osteen, a respected Christian like Starr, and any other true Christian to help perpetuate the lie Mormons are Christians without any concern for the fact the Bible states those who believe a false gospel will die and their souls lost for eternity in hell!”

Whoa.

Romney is definitely next in the GOP’s line of succession (John McCain’s painfully grudging endorsement made that clear), but if anything can get in the way of his nomination it’s the fanatical religious right.
