Considering that Mormons already believe the biggest bunch of hogwash imaginable, supporting homo marriage isn’t a big step for them.

That’s right. It’s no big deal. I didn’t even need to read the story.

Well my goodness, applause and high-fives must be washing through the co moo mity of queers who want to be married to six other queers at the same time in a multiple partner marriages.

Now if the Elders will approve undies with a queer loophole, so to speak, the whole character of the State of Utah might change.

So, one guy, why is this news?

Bishop Romney and his line are Mormon Royalty, Temple Mormons, Bishops, even Stake Presidents like Mitt Romney, who has excommunicated Mormons.

Does anyone remember which Governor gave America gay marriage and that was passionately and sincerely, pro-abortion and has supported gay Scout leaders since the 1990s?

Here is Mitt Romney in 1994.
"One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share."

The Profit Joseph Smith, Jr, husband of up to 43 wives, some of whom were under 14, would be very proud . . . I’m sure that his mansion on the planet Kolob is excited about the sodomite connection.

It fits into LDS theology just fine. Two, or more(polygamy’s part of their game), dudes, kings of their own planet. They just won’t have babies like the rest of the minigods.
