    By the way, we have already had a gay marriage in the Salt Lake Temple.

    How about that?

      I guess that's a compelling reason to check the plumbing before hand.

        That's what's funny. She (he) claimed to be pregnant before the wedding. WTF? The whole story makes my head spin.

            So many things are messed up in that story.

                I remember reading that article (in the Trib) when it happened. I told the story to a group of non-mormons during graduate school, but no one believed me - they said that he had to know that his wife was a dude. I tried to assure them that in certain segments of the mormon world it was indeed possible to (A) not have basic genital knowledge and (B) "never have intimacy," as the first comment in the DNews article so eloquently puts it. Everyone just laughed me off and said I was trying to explain away a clear case of repressed homosexuality.

                After I told the story and was laughed at, a guy came up to me and said that he had been raised mormon in Salt Lake, had read the story while in junior high, and had become obsessed with not making the same mistake. He told me it was the beginnings of his desire to leave the church. After he told me this, he muttered "Felix Urioste" and walked away.

                              Not a big fan of parts of that article - but I suppose that is to be expected coming from Mother Jones.

                              FYI - I just heard that BSA has pushed up their decision time frame. They were going to decide in May. Apparently they are now planning to meet Monday.

                                How is anyone supposed to take a news organization seriously with the name of "Mother Jones"?
