Default Re: Republican wants Gay-Straight Alliances banned from Utah high scho

Unless you are intentionally being misleading, the Mormon Church renounced polygamy in the late 1800s as a result of court decisions and as a condition of the admission of Utah into the union (the prophet of the council of 12 had message from God to do it they claim). There are only some very small splinter sects that still practice it.

Mormons renounce Caffiene. As a centrist right republican I do not understand the homophobic attitude. Ostrocizing one sexual orientation for no legitimate reason can draw comparisons to the Germans otrocizing Jews because they are a different religion.

The ambitious politicians in Utah are clearly pursuing a religous agenda, which is ok if that's what the constituents want, however, this law is so clearly unconstitutional it makes Plessy v. Ferguson look logical.
