I agree with the author. We cannot support people in their ways, if those ways are not what we believe (WE KNOW) are the right ones. We support them by loving them but not becoming like them since we cannot be like them, since we KNOW the Way, the Truth, the Life. Yes we MUST love them, independently of what they are or are trying to be, but we cannot go against our principles, our, I would say, our six truths: 1. We know God lives, 2. We know Jesus is the Christ, He lives, He resurrected from the dead and He is our savior, 3. The Holy Ghost is real, and is there for us to help us to maintain ourselves in the right path to Eternal Life, 4. Joseph Smith saw God and Jesus Christ that morning of 1820, 5. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is God's Church on Earth, and 6. Russel M. Nelson is a prophet of God.

Absolutely love this! Truly Jesus is the answer to everything. If we really love those on the margins of society like Christ does, we will point them to the living source of peace, joy and comfort namely Jesus himself. Thanks for being the example that so many need in this day and age. I just wish people would see that choosing Christ, regardless of your temptations or weakness, is the happiest way. Every time.

Thank you for a heartfelt and well thought through article. And for reminding us , that as President Nelson said in April conference:"Whatever questions or problems you have, the answer is always found in the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Learn more about His Atonement, His love, His mercy, His doctrine, and His restored gospel of healing and progression. Turn to Him! Follow Him!

Thank You! Yes. Those of us that follow Christ and share his doctrine with others are not haters and judges that should be scorned. The doctrine is the doctrine. We can do as Christ instructed his disciples and simply preach the doctrines and if not received, we shake the dust from our feet and move on to those that will find comfort in the gospel and follow the Doctrine of Christ.

I'll have to admit when I saw the title of this article my immediate reaction was negative but when I went through it, it is well presented. For the most part, the whole LGBTQ+ movement has become radicalized, even some who are part of it are saying now that things have gone to far especially when it comes to children.
