I think my church may have just made us a lightning rod.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints holds a worldwide get together twice a year, once near Easter, and again in October. Usual Easter time topics often relate to the resurrection of Christ, and we got that. But we also received something I don't recall having heard in a worldwide meeting.
A member of our Quorum of Twelve Apostles just strongly defended the principles of the U. S. Constitution, and warned of threats against it. Well, he's right. I just didn't expect such in this forum.
Having publicly taken such a stand, I expect leftist wrath.
Making popcorn.
Glad our leaders are not timid.

Most commendable, Denton.
You’d think all Chr*stian Churches would follow suit to highlight their protections under the Constitution.
The degree of my privacy is no business of yours.
What we've learned from history is that we haven't learned from it.

The LDS church is worthy of 1000 times as much respect as she gets. While I am not a believer, I do respect everything the LDS church does stand for today.
I hope the Church's public stance against the leftist agenda does not create a tremendous amount of heartache for the parishioners.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

I am glad to hear that.

Not being married to any particular political party sure makes it a lot easier to look at the world more objectively...
Having said that, MAGA.

The LDS church (as a non-member, I can use the abbreviation) has always been staunchly conservative in values. The state capital has recently been infiltrated with liberal agitators - as have every state capital city - determined to change that. Utah may be one of the last strongholds of true freedom. I'll do my part to help insure that.
