A LETTER FROM A MORMON:
Derrick Clifford
*********************************************

I understand that you don't have all of the information. Somehow, previous to prop 8, you feel you have been wronged or unfairly targeted by the LDS church. I am a member of the LDS church and it is my life and you don't realize the damage you have done to our freedom of religion by twisting facts and taking statements out of context you are smearing my name and my belief system. We don't hate the gay community and that has never been said by any member of the church's first presidency. As far as comparing this to the poligomy question, there is no comparison. That "alternative" form of marriage as you called it was stopped and became illegal by our government. Your argument does not hold much water. How dare you take messages from our conferences that are so personal and sacred to me and use them to your selfish gain and benefit. I love my church and yes we believe that homosexuality is wrong but it really isn't a question of policy it is a question of morality. That I believe is why the LDS faith got involved in the first place. We as a religion fight a battle against immoral actions not people. We are doing the same thing that every church does on the planet. Please stop targeting us. It is becoming dangerous for us to exist and to live in a free society.

There it is. You have the truth now, complete with run-on sentences and bad grammar. The truth is, Mormons do NOT attack homosexuals...they only attack immoral behavior, which somehow means that somewhere in the California constitution there is a clause that states that gay marriage is immoral, since Prop 8 was only about gay marriage, not homosexuality.
