I congratulate the Mormon Church as difficult as that is for their stance on giving gays equal rights in housing and employment, i.e. an anti-discrimination ordinance, long overdue. A giant step for the Mormon Church, in the face of their belief that homosexuality is a sin! They hold this belief in spite of the fact that gays are born predisposed to homosexuality – it’s innate. It could be a sin perhaps, if it was a choice, but it’s not! Their next giant step will be the realization that gays are equal in rights to Mormons. Equality of all people is stated in amendment 14, Sec. 1 of the U.S. Constitution. The Mormon Church must think again before opposing gay marriage to their equals! I look forward to congratulating the Church at that time. But, will I live long enough?

Mormons don’t believe homosexuality to be a sin. One man putting his junk in another man’s bum is a sin though….
If having sex with the same sex isn’t a sin then why does the Bible say it is, tha gays just can’t handle the truth.If they want Equality then let’s bring back poligamy and not out law it then.
I get a great laugh out of American homophobia and I don’t usually bother to “join in” (haw haw) but I’d like to point out to Mr Wogekowski and Mr Potter that masturbation is also a sin; as is fellatio and anal sex.
While I’m at it, so is divorce; let’s not forget lust, greed, pride, envy, sloth, rage, the worship of wealth and objects… holy schmoly!!!!! That means The American Way of Life is a SIN!!!!!!! OMG!
Mr Potter, here’s the truth. Research has shown that latent homosexuality is strongest amongst homophobic males! Who’d’ve thunk?
So guys: Judge not lest you be judged. Or as Michael Jackson put it, “Start with the man in the mirror”
God bless
