The interesting thing to note here is his name-checking of Glenn Beck's muse,
Cleon Skousen. Romney professes not to be familiar with his 10ther, bircher tracts but says this
But Romney did recommend a Skousen book later in the discussion, when the subject turned to Mormon eschatology. "Cleon Skousen has a book called The Thousand Years," Romney told Mickelson. The Thousand Years is actually a trilogy that details the 4,000 years that elapsed between the creation of the earth and the birth of Christ. The book, Romney said, could set Mickelson straight on what he actually believes. "It's throughout the Bible. Christ appears in Jerusalem, splits the Mount of Olives to stop the war that's coming in to kill all the Jews…That's when the coming and glory of Christ occurs."
Is Mitt Romney a creationist?
