The churches official news press release about Proposition 8 and it's continued support to protect marriage as being between 1 man and 1 woman.

Voters in California, once again, are being overturned by a judge. An appeal is sure to follow. Neither on any side will be happy no matter HOW it settles but will it ever settle?

As latter-day Saints and followers of Jesus Christ, I would continue to admonish you to treat this subject with respect and support whatever side of the issue that you choose to; but that you do so with respect one towards another. This was the message approved by the quorum of the 12 Apostles.

The debate is far from over.

As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints very nicely we have always taught to love the sinner and hate the sin. However, I have seen some other so-called "Christians" that truly do not show the same unconditional love as what we are taught at least in my own experience and from what I have seen when it comes to some other differences including homosexuality. That said, the argument that just because we love all unconditionally means we must accept their lifestyle is invalid.

By the very definition of the word "unconditionally" it means that we choose to accept them as brothers and sisters and fellow human beings despite philosophical, religious, political, personal differences.
