Reply to comment by sweet-tea-13 in LDS Church comes out for federal bill that recognizes same-sex marriage by creamboy2623
I went to a boarding school with rules based around the Mormon faith. Those people will die before accepting anyone who's different.

I’m a former member of a Mormon bishopric and completely agree with this. Mormons will never actually change in their position on same sex marriage … but they are terrified of the legal liability of same sex marriage being legal and them not allowing it in their buildings. This law protects them on religious grounds which is a big win for them.
And for my part, I think that’s great. Let’s make sure it’s legal nationally, if old bigoted religions don’t want to perform same sex ceremonies then let them die on that hill.

For anyone who is seeking faith, but don't want to be treated as less than human, there are many Christian denominations (and I am sure within other faiths as well) who will love and accept you! We all deserve to love and be loved. We shouldn't have to make sacrifices just to be able to do so. I love you all.

Ah that sounds awful, sorry you had to go to a school like that. I was never mormon but I'm an exjw (the mormons cult-cousin) and can confirm they will also never accept lgbt people, it's a hill they most certainly will die on. I hope it keeps driving people out as those views become less and less acceptable. It was actually one of the first things that made me really start questioning things before I woke up.
