Openly Gay Man Called To Serve in Key LDS Position

Good for him, and good for LDS.

As the article takes pains to point out, this doesn't indicate that LDS are changing their position on homosexual sex being a sin. They're a lot like Catholics that way... being gay is fine, as long as you don't actually have sex. Of course, I think that position is pretty moronic, but at least this is a step in the right direction.
 
So he is more like an Asexual Mormon who probably pleasures himself to men, but does not actually have intercourse with men, only wishes to once the Mormon god approves it?
 
This shouldn't be shocking to people. My body would love to bang tons of girls at UVU. But if I did I would be just a restricted in the church as a gay man.
 
i will refrain from commenting in this thread. curs it will bring me another warning.

ooh crap too late.

gay homosexuals are becoming a household name.

Maybe the Mormon church should use electric aversion therapy to cure you like they have done to people who have gay thoughts.
 
I am a lesbian trapped in a man's body.
 
i call a gay homosexual an open homosexual.
a homosexual is just a person who has sex with the same sex.
so a closeted homosexual is not a gay homosexual.
a open homosexual is a gay homosexual. cus he acts all gay and has sex with the same sex

come on this aint rocket science

Also Executive Secretary is a "key" church position. I mean, when I opened this thread I thought he was at least a stake president or something.

No, it's not rocket science. To be rocket science, or science of any sort, would mean that everyone is using the terms in the same way. You are using your own private definitions, in your typically offensive way. That is an idiosyncrasy. That "idiosyncrasy" has parts spelled close to "idiot" and "crazy" is probably coincidental.
 

Seriously? You're really going to take the stance that BYU and the Church have nothing to do with eachother? Do you honestly believe this wasn't okay'd by some high-up church authorities before being carried out.. maybe not under the authority of "the church" but with the authority of a high up church member... since Church Authorities and BYU leadership are pretty much selected from the same pool of talent


On another note

I was assistant ward executive secretary... and loooking back this explains a lot of the assisting i had to do...

Did you read the link? After doing so are you really going to argue that Broncster's statemtent that "the Mormon church used electric aversion therapy to cure people who have gay thoughts" is correct?
 
@colton, thanks for that link. I have a quick question,

There is an interview floating around internet of some young, gay-Mormon who in the late 90's underwent shock therapy. He explains his experience and it is very secretive and quite painful. Are you familiar with this? Are we to assume the kid is lying? Or did BYU continue this until it was banned in 2006?

I always figured the shock was a common "treatment" method that was misguided--an honest mistake. But those fighting the church like to claim it was blatant cruelty... I even had a co-worker tell me she was on a "waiting list" to undergo her treatment...
