CAUSE YOU'RE GONNA TAPE THIS, AND I'M GONNA SELL THIS..

So this is some pretty substantial shit that I had to give it its own post.

Looks like the trouble has only just begun for The Mormon Church due to its bewildering involvement in PROP 8.  First, please watch the clip below. 



And then, please take the time to watch this doc by my colleague Steve Greenstreet who I went through BYU with during the same time.  He also has a doc available on Netflix called This Divided State which I highly recommend (and I'm featured in if you know where to look ;)



And ask yourself.. Do you feel sorry for these guys? Well, do you? It's really just head-scratchingly bizaare to watch this all go down.  I sometimes find it hard to believe when I watch behavior and rhetoric come out of people who claim to commune with God on a daily basis.  Honestly, I've always had my reservations regarding the faith I was raised in, but the behavior coming out of Salt Lake over the past few years is almost unrecognizable to the teachings I grew up with.  Nowadays, it appears more like something out of FROST/NIXON... Do these men not hear the words that our coming out of their mouths?
