Wow, the Mormon church bans gay members children.

Quote:

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) ? Mormon church officials have issued a rule change that says members in same-sex marriages can be kicked out and their children must wait until they're 18 and disavow homosexual relationships to be baptized.

The revisions triggered a wave of anger, confusion and sadness for a growing faction of LGBT-supportive Mormons who were buoyed in recent years by church leaders' calls for more compassion and understanding for LGBT members.

"It feels like they are extending an olive branch and hitting you with it," said Wendy Montgomery, who is Mormon and has a 17-year-old gay son. "It's like this emotional whiplash."

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints disseminated the handbook changes this week to local church leaders around the world. The goal was to provide clarity to lay leaders who run congregations, church spokesman Eric Hawkins said. He noted the church has long been on record as opposing same-sex marriages.

"While it respects the law of the land, and acknowledges the right of others to think and act differently, it does not perform or accept same-sex marriage within its membership," Hawkins said in a statement.

Who cares what these nut jobs think anyway. Have you heard the story of their religion. Takes a pretty naïve person to buy all that they are selling.

Seems more like a cult really.

That's what happens when you follow a religious cult blindly and let them dictate what you can or can't do!

How do you define 'cult'?

Do they FORCE people to stay in their sect?

The South Park rendition of the story of Joseph Smith was particularly well done

I moved to a Mormon (they say LDS) area. Estimates in my county are around 30% but my neighborhood is higher. Coming from Portland, the culture is a bit different. While it's a great neighborhood, family wise, some things are just weird. Everyone is super nice but it definitely feels cult-ish. The good news is there's just enough fellow heathens around to keep things sane.
