GuestI thought this was a pretty good interview. (Although I wish “murderers and rapists” didn’t get thrown around in these conversations.)
He says he’ll stay. “For me, no, I absolutely will not leave.”

GuestThanks Ann. Just last night driving home I was thinking, “NPR has probably done something on this – I need to search and see In the eyes and hearts of even solid LDS members a notion of, “I can either be a good Mormon or a good disciple of Christ And those two things look very different under this policy”
Bingo!
Joshua 24:15 …, choose you this day whom ye will serve; … but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
But I can’t actually speak for the rest of my house.

GuestI found myself wondering how Mitch Mayne was dealing with all this. Glad to know that he is committed to helping the next generation of gay self discovering teens.

GuestListened to this interview today – I generally like how NPR interviews and reports issues and I appreciated Mitch Mayne’s comments. I also have wondered how he is handling this and wonder if it will ever become too much. I don’t know how many people heard this interview vs. Elder Christofferson’s video but I think that interviews such as this have as much clout for non LDS people as the church’s formal videos and announcements. I admire his strength and faith. This quote speaks volumes: “I can either be a good Mormon or a good disciple of Christ And those two things look very different under this policy”
I’ve told my wife and my parents that the minute I learn one of my children is gay that I will tell them to choose personal happiness over church.
