Blame the gays! If BYU doesn't get a BCS invite this year, I am blaming the gays....and the heterosexuals in Norway.

Let's suppose for a moment that President Kimball was not merely giving his personal opinion, but rather was speaking under the spirit when he said the world today (in 1972) was more wicked than at the time of Sodom & Gomorrah, and that rampant homosexuality was the sin that did those cities in.
Forgive me if I am paraphrasing the wrong prophet, but I suspect you all know which famous sayings I am referencing here. And let's suppose that today, despite the sympathy many of us feel for those with same-sex attraction, and despite that we feel it is cruel and unusual to "punish" them, let's suppose that the prophets are right and this is the "sin" that would break the camel's back so to speak, and widespread gay legal rights would cause the earth to groan, tempests to flare, and Christ to return, burn the wicked and usher in the new millennium. Is it wrong of me to look forward to that end result - - and actually hope that the great and terrible day arrives that much sooner? |

PS You should hope that the end doesnt come until you hook up with at least 2 of the women on those pictures you were posting yesterday.

I think Waters has a perfect pitch appreciation for the utter--ineed darkly comic--absurdity of the chasm between Mormons' conviction their church is "always right," and the reality that it is always wrong, and spectacularly so. The thng the Mormon Church does best is dissemble concerning its history of having been wrong about important matters.

I hope God doesnt punish the entire world because of the result of this election in California. Seems unfair.

And all this time you thought it was never wrong.

If my memory serves me well (and if often doesnt), for Prop 22, there were about 7.5M total votes, 4.5M Yes and 3M No. I would be surprised if more than 10M people in total weighed in on Prop 8 this time around. I feel a great mantle of responsibility knowing that my vote could basically end your life. I promise to not vote haphazardly.
