Not your average Mormon
Well, at least you're consistent. I thought at first that it was specifically because the President-elect was Trump that you objected.Yes.
I fail to see how a musical performance can be thought of as "participating in government."No, it wouldn't. I don't want churches participating in government at all.
Well, for starters, the Church didn't "insert itself" into the ceremony. It did not ask or even offer to perform. And their singing at the inauguration could not conceivably have a negative impact on one single solitary individual who hears them. That's where I see the difference, and it is HUGE.If a singing group made up of Mormons wanted to perform at the inauguration, fine... but I see it as crossing a line when the church itself inserts itself into the ceremony... just as I saw it as crossing a line when the church inserted itself into the debate over the legalization of same-sex marriage.
