@82 Your armchair interpretation and analysis of the lot of us has been duly noted and logged.

We are all at different stages in our life where we can understand only certain things but cant progress pass that point until a later time. Therefore how can a child make sense of what a adult is wise enough to grasp. You are all very smart. But you haven’t reached that level yet so you will be frustrated by trying to make sense of it.

While Hafen gets to be “Temple President”, his wife gets the esteemed title of “Temple Matron”. What a flattering title.

Do you think Hafen would even touch such a politically charged issue unless he was specifically ASKED to do it …?

The Church has been political on the issue of homosexuality since the 1970s. Since the 1990s and the same-sex marriage debate, they’ve become more so. If you read his speech, you might see that it’s a rather political speech. Some Evergreen folks were annoyed that he seemed to spend more time defending the Church’s position and framing (rather naively) the issue than ministering.

Rhetoric Much — The POINT is that the article was posted to the LDS NEWSROOM SITE, so apparently the PR department thought that the article was appropriate for a GENERAL AUDIENCE.

p.s. I hope that translating this simple point into your formatting style helps make it easier for you to grasp.

Did anyone here even consider who the intended AUDIENCE of this speech was? What do you think the INTENT of the speech was? Do you think Hafen would even touch such a politically charged issue unless he was specifically ASKED to do it by a PRIMARILY MALE group of people who want to overcome their same sex attraction and asked for his help? His intended audience is NOT those who embrace their homosexual lifestyle and he is not speaking to or judging that particular group. The number of people in these comments who openly admit that they didn’t read the whole article is staggering. (Note the deliberate number of caps in my comment. I know my audience.)

[...] him/her. It seems like damage control is more in order than advertising, though they are the ones who broke the news about Bruce Hafen’s gay bashing, and they seemed to think that was good news as well. Someone in the PR department needs to be [...]
