For the Church's backbone constituency isn't the cultural wars what it's all about? It's not clear that the way to save the institution is to abandon its role as the last stand against progress. Look at the destruction of European religion and mainline religions. I think that cultural warrior is the LDS Church's brand and goodwill to the members who are vital to its continued existence.
