Hey, Utahans, did you read the Tribune headlines today? "Buttars: An Unlikely Ally For Gays? All together now - Bah-hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
See Internetland, we don't need to be angry. All we need is a bucket of hot buttered popcorn as we kick back and enjoy the circus. Chris Buttars a gay ally? Hardly. How wonderful is it that this crusty curmudgeon of a pig sex lovin' gay basher has had his tangerines put in a vice and squeezed by those in the Big Building who are being similarly juiced?
Oh, the glee. Pass the M&M's.

This is the dilemma all Mormons face... having to abandon a stand or position on an issue along with all supporting arguments the moment The Church changes its position on said matter. If the "prophet" recieved a "revelation" tomorrow proclaming that The Church would henceforth support gay marriage and allow gays to marry in the temple, every Chris Bigotlow, every Scott Buttars, every Mitt Romney member would have to drop all their
carefully crafted arguments against homosexuality and accept it as God's will--otherwise they stand in opposition to The Church- either quietly or openly- and risk their good standing if they become vocal.
Just as Latter-day Saints in 1890 had to choose sides on plural marriage and likewise in 1978 with blacks and the Priesthood, some swallowed their long-held beliefs and conformed (some silently opposing the change) while others left the Church in protest.
This Modern Revelation/Follow the Prophet ideaology puts Mormons in a precarious position. Church support of anti-discrimination ordinances illustrates the tricky two-step that lawmakers like Scott Buttars and others now have to dance. But, as an LDS Church News article from the 70's said, "Once the Bretheren have decided and spoken on a matter, the thinking has been done for you." Afterall... "obedience is the first law of heaven."
I agree wholeheartedly, Emily, with your assesment of the matter. Your insights are laser sharp.
I love you madly.
Rock on, sista! What a bunch of "sheep" shit. Followers to the letter. Whatever...
