A new film, entitled “8- The Mormon Proposition”, attempts to shed some light on the controversial involvement of the Mormon church and proposition 8. The film was directed by Reed Cowan of David v. Goliath Productions and has already been submitted for consideration at Sundance.
It will probably be many years before we see the full extent of the involvement of the Mormon church, but there is no denying that they are seeing the fruits of their labor at this very moment. There has been an increasing tide of anger and push-back towards the Mormon church and it’s not solely from LGBT camps. Having many Mormon friends myself, I often wonder how these past events will end up affecting them and their places of worship. As history continues to push towards equality, what will its view of such a divisive organization be? It wasn’t so long ago that they suffered a public relations disaster in the form of their racist views on which ethnicities were allowed to serve in the priesthood. Amazingly, in the face of public pressure, they claimed that God realized that being a racist blood fart was a bad idea and was even worse for the church. I suppose God realized how hard it was to fill the pews when they were spiritually lynching people from the pulpit.
It truly is odd how often deities are ignorant, when it comes to compassion for their own creations.
For those of you who are Facebook inclined, there is also a fan page that contains further information. If you wish to see this film, I suggest signing up. I suggest it with much suggestitude.
We must stay focused and get to the bottom of this. The Mormon church is rolling in money and if any of that freely given cash was obtained or used illegally, we need to show them the hard end of the IRS’ boot. On top of that, have any of you ever been inside on of their churches? Tackkkyyyyy….
