November 2015 exclusion policy? What November 2015 exclusion policy? Today is an historic day! The Mormon church ceased to be bigoted against LGBTQ+ people! Oh, wait… no. It didn’t. Not included in the show, but maybe this has something to do with the recent anti-hate crime bill that passed in Utah this week.

In November 2015, while Thomas Monson was president of the church, a policy from the Mormon church leaked stating that children in a home with homosexual parents couldn’t be baptized.

A few months later, Russell Nelson stated it was actually “revelation” born by 15 witnesses. This was before he was called as president of the church.

Now the church announced this policy has been reversed.

• Why was this policy put in effect in the first place?
• Why didn’t they apologize? https://bycommonconsent.com/2019/04/05/let-love-be-love
• How do active members see this?
• Was this only to stop the bleeding?
