Letter questions LDS Church's selective stance on moral issues
Original: Letter: In opposing Idaho’s abortion measure, the LDS Church says it weighs in on issues that have ‘significant moral consequences.’ Why, then, does it stay mum on so many others?
A letter published in The Salt Lake Tribune criticizes the LDS Church for opposing Idaho's abortion measure on the grounds that it involves 'significant moral consequences,' while remaining silent on other issues the writer considers equally grave. The piece argues the church's stated criteria for political involvement are applied inconsistently, raising questions about which moral causes it chooses to address publicly.
Why now: The LDS Church's intervention in Idaho's abortion debate has prompted debate over the consistency of its moral and political positions.
