GAY AND MORMON? THERE’S A DATG SE FOR THAT

Created by Andrew Markle, “Origs” seeks to give gay Mormons an onle social work to meet others like them for “marriage or long-term mment.

MORMON, GAY, AND DATG

Acrdg to Markle, the webse will act both as a tool for datg and as a rource for LGBTQ Mormons lookg for acceptance wh a church that’s still evolvg on s stance on homosexualy. Markle stated that Origs will also “nnect gay Mormons wh alli and help them rencile their [relig] beliefs wh their liftyle.

” Markle believ that Origs is about buildg a gay Mormon muny and timat that there are around 22, 000 practicg gay Mormons.

MORMON GAY DATG

In December, the Mormon Church lnched “Mormons and Gays, ” a webse voted to “discsn on same-sex attractn. ” Acrdg to the webse, the church’s changg stance on gay members do not mean that the church accepts “homosexual behavr” as acceptable but regniz that homosexualy is not a choice.

Like Origs, Mormons and Gays acts as a ndu for nversatn and acceptance of LGBTQ dividuals, so that church members n “rpond sensively and thoughtfully when they enunter same-sex attractn their own fai, among other Church members, or elsewhere. Markle realiz that the missn of Origs, which helps LGBTQ sgl nnect for the purpos of a relatnship, diverg wh the church’s new stance on homosexualy — which is of the “love the sner, hate the s” variety.

For Markle, Origs will act as a further step the right directn for gay Mormons — movg om prelimary dialogue to a place of actn. In orr to act as a force for good the liv of s Mormon members, the church mt ntue evolvg and makg amends to the gay fahful. As a practicg Mormon and weekly churchgoer, Markle unrstands his posn may be ntroversial for many the church and that he may face exmunitn or disfellowship for his volvement Origs — as advotg homosexual relatnships may be grounds for expulsn om the church.

GAYSTORI AND ROURC FOR THE LGBTQIA+ LATTER-DAY SAT COMMUNY

If you believe the rtored gospel and want to apply your life as a gay member, then you probably value the law of chasty (pecially if you are an endowed member who lov the temple, and you want to do your bt to live up to those venants). So how do a gay LDS member, who wants to be a relatnship wh another person of the same sex, keep their venants and stay the Church? The ia of beg an openly gay Mormon who is datg, and livg up to the temple standard of chasty, may seem to be somewhat of a non-sequur.

Now that same-sex marriage is legal and lawful the Uned Stat and a growg number of untri around the world, is totally nceivable for gay members to live up to their temple venants and be datg others of the same sex, and ultimately get married to a same-sex spoe.

Sadly, same-sex datg ntu to be owned upon by the Church, not only bee of prumed illic sexual behavr that is so often the stereotype imposed on gay members, but precisely bee datg should lead to marriage. As a rult, we ntue to see so many gay LDS members leavg the Church large numbers and abandong their prevly held standards, cludg chasty.

This n make very challengg for the growg number of out gay members who want to stay the Church, to form a healthy romantic relatnship wh someone of the same sex, and live the law of chasty as fed the temple.

I would go so far as to say that the reason the vast majory of out gay members leave the Church is bee of the law of chasty, or more accurately the current amend fn of the law of chasty.
