I just feel like there is a big cloud of negativity sitting over the church. Of grumpiness. And dourness.
If for just a second we get a reprieve from that in an Utchdorf talk we sing praises to God. Or when we recollect Gordon B. Hinckley's messages of optimism.
"Gays are destroying The Family and all of existence." It's just a message that doesn't resonate with optimism. And many would argue, doesn't resonate with the reality of their day to day experience with gay family members, friends, and colleagues.
