This is a far cry from the almost $200,000 donation last year to the Yes-on-8 campaign, but the Mormon church isn't changing its position on gay marriage. The church reveals in a statement that it is still, "unequivocally committed to defending the bedrock foundation of marriage between a man and a woman." They do believe, however, that fairness in where a person lives and works does not have anything to do with marriage.
Should a step in the right direction be praised, or should we be holding out praise until we get the full recognition of equality that we demand?
*The official Mormon church news website includes a "Style Guide note", which asks that the complete name of the church is used in the first reference. I obliged.
