Kiss And Tell

All true, but if the Mormon church weren't there, who would gay activists have to pick on? It's the easiest target in SLC. Guaranteed KRCL will have this crap on Radioactive as soon as possible, making it a huge issue. If the same thing had happened at a Catholic church, the result would have been the same as well. My problem is that every time the story is told, the story of the victims changes.

Here's the thing, as I see it. . . I don't think anyone would disagree that the church has the right to kick people off its own property. I think there IS an argument, however, against what this Seed person said. She said that the kissing people were thrown out due to their personal characteristics and that it was no different than throwing out a person of color. I disagree. You can't choose what color your skin will be. You can, however, choose how you will act in public. If you knowingly walk onto property where the standards are different than yours, you should be respectful and conform to those standards, even if it's just while you're there. It's like going to a fancy restaraunt where you have to wear a tie and jacket. You don't just walk into a place like that in your cut-off jeans and tank top. Similarly, if you're going into a mosque and you're not Muslim, you should still cover your head to be respectful of where you are. In this way, I don't think this article should make anyone angry that the church is intolerant. Instead, I view this couple as kind of foolish and disrespectful of church standards. They probably wouldn't walk into a mosque and do the same thing. I think it's absolutely asinine to try to make the church look bad in this instance. Nice try.
