SLC to elect openly lesbian mayor

[tyroneweaver]

Who'da thought.
LDS church works quite closely with political figures in the city on development issues, etc. Could be interesting or could be much ado about nothing

Salt Lake City could get its first lesbian mayor

Disgusting

 

[sarahgop]

is she hot?

 

[The Great Goose]

Not necessarily a bad thing. She's on her own. That's a good sign. The bulls are only dangerous in a group. As it is, she's probably a brave, working woman.

She looks like a white Rachell Dolezel.

Good to see that the moo mens are evolving and have elected her

Ironic. SLC gets a lesbian mayor, but the Mormons successfully got prop 8 in California knocked down. Guess when your eyes are elsewhere what's going on in your own backyard goes unnoticed. Might be a lesson there.

There is a lesson there; when choosing a homosexual for mayor make sure you pick a lesbian, that way you never have to worry about your "backyard".

Mormons are wiser than you think.

The LDS Mormons are waking up.

The fiasco in CA cost them members and public good will. The hardliner Dallin Oaks demonstrated the LDS Church had caved in on the Kim Davis issue. LDS Social Services got out of the adoption business.

Jackie was the first LGBT representative in the State House.

She works well with people, so good luck to her.

An LDS spokesperson referred a question on Bikupski’s candidacy to the Mormon policy on political neutrality, which says the church is neutral on matters of politics in all nations where it is established.

This is a Lie.

Mormons say that there will be a Constitutional Crisis in America and that a Mormon Leader will swoop in and save the country.

Cool, just tell 'em to bring a few extra wives for the rest of us, variety is the spice of life after all.

Party pooper, at least tell me the Mormons haven't given up on drugs, alcohol and gambling.......

 

[Mad Scientist]

Sorry man, looks like they have. No need to fret though, plenty of pagan religions out there for you.

SMH....they didn't learn anything from Houston doing the same thing then....sad.

Actually as early as 1862. The LDS made a deal with the feds in 1890 to save their temples, and for public and political consumption, the leadership agreed to stop it.

Most of the General Authorities, however, minus Apostle and later President Lorenzo Snow, went along happily encouraging the practice in Canada and Mexico and on international waters. And some plural marriages were performed in the states with the GAs' blessings.

Then in the Smoot Hearings in Washington DC in 1904, then President Joseph F. Smith had to admit he had been lying about the supposedly monogamous practice of the LDS. He hammered the polygamous supporters, got rid of two polygamous apostles, and made sure from 1904 all of the apostles supported a monogamous church.

Tyrone believes in plural marriage now, and I am not certain thought I think that bobblaylock, RGS, and other LDS board members accept monogamy as the law of the land.

There's definitely been some "evolving" in the Mormon church since 2008.
