I know that once I saw that the LDS church supported funds towards an LGBTQ+ rally in Salt Lake City (why would they do that? belief in free agency and that love is extended toward all) - if you'd be able to include said event that'd be great. I also do agree with the other person who asked if you could include views from LDS LGBTQ groups. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.36.49.62 (talk • contribs)

The title of this article, along with a provision at

In the "In canonized scripture" section it says that the BoM doesn't sound off on homosexuality, however 2 Nephi :13 9 (which is essentially Nephi's copy-paste of Isaiha) mentions people "...declare(ing) their sin to be even as Sodom..."
