Mitt Romney: "The Bible is the word of God"

Last night in the YouTube Republican Debate, Mitt Romney said that "The Bible is the word of God... I don't disagree with the Bible. I try to live by it." Haven't we learned our lesson by electing someone who thinks "God is on my side, so whatever I want to do is justified by divinity"?

If Romney lives by the Bible as the word of God, then he would have to "execute any child who hits or curses his parents" (Exodus 21:15, 17), as the Bible tell us. If he were to follow the Bible, Romney would have to kill anyone who suggested believing in another religion, as the Bible says, "thou shalt surely kill him, thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death" (Deuteronomy 13:6-10).

Finally, God says that he visits "the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and fourth generation" (Exodus 34:7). Therefore, God has condemned Romney with wickedness and immorality because his ancestors were polygamous. I guess he doesn't disagree with that.
