SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A Facebook campaign launched in support of a Mormon church leader's sermon on same-sex relationships has drawn more than 4,500 responses.

The "I support Boyd K. Packer" page was started Oct. 5, two days after the senior leader of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints called homosexual attraction unnatural and said gays can and should change.

Elder Paker told it like it is. He does not mince words. It is not hate to speak the truth.

Families and traditional marriage are the boon and foundation to strong nations and people. Perverting that simple truth weakens nations and peoples.

Elder Packer made that loving principle very clear as well.

Amen Jeff! It's good to see these "Packer" fans coming to his defense. I'd love to see a couple thousands of these jerseys opposing the next militant gay rally in SL. ;-)

A calendar, written by a excommunicated gay man who has an ax to grind with the church, as do so many other homosexual activists. No thanks. Take the muffins elsewhere.
