I've decided to start a new thread for this discussion, since it deals specifically with what the church intends to do moving forward on Sundays as it pertains to the supreme court ruling.
Here's the article from PFS: http://www.sltrib.com/lifestyle/fait...ding-letter-to
And here's the specifics from the Mormon newsroom: http://www.mormonnewsroom.org/articl...riage-decision
Obviously the opinions on this will be far reaching, and, as is typical, this will be a "where you sit is where you stand" kind of issue. That said, I'm interested to see how this approach works at a local level.
The letter is intended to be used as a discussion point in Sunday School or 3rd hour for all adults and youth. I've read some cynical responses as to why the youth are being included in the discussion, but hey, the youth haven't been included before, and most of the Progmos have called for better exposure to big issues for the youth, so there you have it.
It should make for an interesting Sunday over the next few weeks, that's for sure. No doubt there will be some hand wringing as well.
I'm in primary, so I doubt I'll get a chance to be a part of it, so I'll be curious to hear what your experiences are.
