a few reminder facts...
She was married and had 4 children. Outstanding/brainiac/talented/great parent (always winning parent of the month type things)/loyal friend/hardworking/educated. Active in Church. Sealed in Temple.
Another woman in her same Ward...sort of carbon copy of Mariah. 5 children.
They find out/figure out, however that sort of thing happens, that they are gay.
In love. with each other.
Divorces for both of them.
Stay active in their Ward.
Time goes on.
They get married.
Both end up ex'd.
Still attending Church in their Ward.
Both have testimonies.
So...you know that I've said a few times to you Momma's...how are you going to explain this entire homosexual scenario to your children? How are you going to explain... our religion does not believe, does not support gay marriage, will not change the doctrine at any point? How do you teach to love someone while viewing their actions as sin?
So...we have the family Proclamation...we have Scriptures that denounce this practice...we have living Apostles...we have videos and publications from the Church to teach these facts. so evidently there are things out there for your consideration in covering this landmine territory.
Heavy on my mind right now, because Mariah and her wife just announced, they got married 8 months ago, so it's out there for everyone to see in cyber space--
isn't the perplexing basic question...
...how will you treat these beautiful children at Church, Moms? how will you teach your children to treat them in Primary? at Scouts? Activity days? YW? YM?
To all the adults teaching each of these age groups...how will we conduct ourselves?
Guess the first rule, the basic challenge is...unconditional love for all concerned?
