Liberal Mormon. Yes we exist :)

Not every issue is black and white. It's important to concentrate on the gray areas sometimes. I've found links to the LDS church's position on some issues that venture into morality vs. legal. The information I will be posting is quotes by President Obama previous to his election. I realize that his positions on some of these issues may have changed or run deeper than a sound bite allows.

Abortion:

The Church allows for possible exceptions for its members when:

* Pregnancy results from rape or incest, or
* A competent physician determines that the life or health of the mother is in serious jeopardy, or
* A competent physician determines that the fetus has severe defects that will not allow the baby to survive beyond birth.

Of course this choice can't be made without a great deal of council. Spiritual AND temporal.

Preventing Unintended Pregnancy:
Barack Obama is an original co-sponsor of legislation to expand access to contraception, health information and preventive services to help reduce unintended pregnancies. Introduced in January 2007, the Prevention First Act will increase funding for family planning and comprehensive sex education that teaches both abstinence and safe sex methods. The Act will also end insurance discrimination against contraception, improve awareness about emergency contraception, and provide compassionate assistance to rape victims.

He opposes mid-late term abortion.
That is my position as well.

Same sex marriage:

I think everyone is aware of the LDS church's view on same sex marriage.

President Obama's position as President has had to be rethought as Prop 8 was overturned as unconstitutional.

"I think that marriage, in the minds of a lot of voters, has a religious connotation," Obama said, according to the article. "I know that's true in the African American community, for example." Instead, he endorsed civil unions, a designation that did not exist in 1996.

Obama takes the same stance today - yes on equal rights and civil unions, no on same-sex marriage - but attributes the distinction to his religious convictions.

As he put it in an August 2008 presidential candidates' forum, "I believe that marriage is the union between a man and a woman. Now, for me as a Christian ... it is also a sacred union. God's in the mix."

Yup, I agree with that. I support civil unions and all of the rights afforded to a heterosexual couple. I support all civil rights of LGBT Americans, including the overturning of Don't Ask Don't Tell.

Basically I believe it's futile to fight some things like marijuana, prostitution, etc. Instead of fighting these things at great cost to taxpayers, legalize it, government regulate it, and tax the heck out of it :)
Pro choice=Free agency=Free country= What I believe. There is no judge in America that can deal with bad choices like God will. In the meantime, live life as positively as possible.
