"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12

ROMNEY TALKS FAITH IN CONTENTIOUS INTERVIEW: ‘I’M NOT A SPOKESMAN FOR MY CHURCH’ Another Politician. Just what we need..
In an interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan, Mitt Romney discussed his take on gay rights. The former Massachusetts governor explained that while he opposes same-sex marriage, he has a record of supporting equal rights for homosexuals. When pressed by Morgan to explain which rights he backs, Romney covered his support for equality in employment and discussed his own record of having nominated homosexuals during his governorship.
Morgan asked, ”Does your faith mean that you view homosexuality as a sin?” Romney’s response was as follows: “I separate quite distinctly matters of personal faith from the leadership that one has in a political sense.” Morgan, in skepticism and surprise, jabbed, “Can you do that? Seriously?” Romney inevitably tells Morgan that he’s “…not a spokesman for [his] church.”
