Why has the LDS Church hewed such a socially conservative line in the half century or so of my life and what does it meant? These questions have been bothering me for a long time and here I want to explore them.
The questions are difficult because they seem to pose a theological question and because they raise an issue that, though evident in my experience, will be denied by others as soon as the going gets rough. Leaders of the Church, and other Latter-day Saints, in my experience, often change the ground of argument when it suits them.
