Oct. 12th, 2010 09:12 pmIf you haven't heard about this Mormon bombshell - Same-Sex Attraction Can Change, well now you have!
Anyways, the gist of is that at the Church's recent General Conference (read: semi-annual meeting for Church Muckety-Mucks to tell everyone what they'd received through 'divine inspiration' or some such whateverness), one of the aforementioned muckety-mucks (Boyd K. Packer) said during his talk that 'Same-sex attraction can be overcome and any type of union other than marriage between a man and a woman is morally wrong...'.
Ha fucking ha. Nice try, but no.... And of course, there has been backlash - duh - with members offering up their support for this particular muckety-muck. My sister-in-law (brother's wife) is a member of a Facebook group called "I Support Boyd K. Packer". My immediate thought was, "of course you do, because you it's what you were brought up with..."
Then, I ended up being inspired to write this lovely missive at the office:
