“So many things are happening within the Church and LDS culture that indicate a broadening understanding of the variety of sexual orientations and a more civil approach to addressing it.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

by Trevor Cook<\/p>\n

This month\u2019s Ensign<\/i> (March 2014)\u00a0 carried a partial reprint of a Brigham Young University-Idaho devotional address by Elder Tad R. Callister titled \u201cThe Lord\u2019s Standard of Morality\u00a0.\u201d When I read it, I was shocked at the apparent distance of the non-heterosexual Latter-day Saint\u2019s experience from the thoughts or understanding of even as high a church leader as this member of the Presidency of the Seventy.<\/p>\n

Elder Callister\u2019s brief section headed as \u201cSame-Gender Relationships\u201d centers on a prescription: \u201cThose with same-gender tendencies have a duty (1) to abstain from immoral relationships and (2) do all within their power to avail themselves of the refining, perfecting powers of the Atonement.\u201d<\/p>\n

With no other context, the phrase \u201csame-gender tendencies\u201d could reasonably be interpreted as tendencies one holds in common with others of his or her same gender. Here, it can only be understood as referring to sexuality because of an earlier paragraph\u2019s mention of \u201csame-gender relationship[s]\u201d being inconsistent with \u201cGod\u2019s eternal pattern\u201d and the culturally LDS association of the phrase \u201csame-gender\u201d with homosexuality. Such vague and imprecise phrasing rhetorically denies the significance of real and valued feelings of gays, lesbians, and others. Within this discursive framework, genuine feelings of love, affection, and goodwill do not spring from a natural physical orientation toward or even an \u201cattraction\u201d for those of the same-sex; rather, they are the illusions of a \u201ctendency\u201d that results not in real relationships but some sort of inherently different and morally reprehensible \u201csame-gender relationship.\u201d Elder Callister thus rhetorically deliberately dismisses the actual feelings and experience of his professed audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, what is wrong with the counsel \u201c(1) to abstain from immoral relationships and (2) do all within [your] power to avail [yourselves] of the refining, perfecting powers of the Atonement\u201d? On the surface, nothing. Indeed, is this not what all disciples of Christ should be striving to do? The problem, again, stems from the statement\u2019s discursive and cultural context.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mainstream Church culture embodied in the official <\/span>Ensign<\/i> magazine idealizes the heterosexual pairing as key to earthly and eternal happiness in a way that implies that <\/span>full<\/i> earthly happiness is virtually out of reach for those who cannot meet that standard for whatever reason–be they gay, divorced, or otherwise unattached. Elder Callister condemns \u201csame gender relationship[s]\u201d as \u201cinconsistent with God\u2019s eternal pattern…\u201d and then warns those with \u201csame-gender tendencies\u201d to \u201cabstain from immoral relationships,\u201d conforming to the cultural precedent of denying those on the high side of the Kinsey scale (those mostly or exclusively romantically attracted to those of the same sex) a \u201crighteous\u201d opportunity for full earthly happiness. The failure–as always–to provide a constructive alternative to those in this dilemma beyond simply rejecting their natural ability to participate in wholesome and meaningful (but \u201csinful\u201d) relationships belies a likely lack of genuine empathy on the part of the speaker.<\/span><\/p>\n

The implicit logic behind the exhortation that those \u201cwith same-gender tendencies… do all within their power to avail themselves of the refining, perfecting powers of the Atonement\u201d is even more pernicious. According to the common understanding of the Plan of Salvation, all people sin, and <\/span>everyone<\/i> should avail themselves of these atoning powers. However, a \u201cduty\u201d unique to \u201cthose with same-gender tendencies\u201d implies special sinfulness inherent in this population. Their duty is to be \u201crefined\u201d and \u201cperfected\u201d in this area, <\/span>despite<\/i> their \u201cworthiness\u201d to hold Church positions and receive temple recommends when they do not act on their \u201ctendencies.\u201d This counsel, following the previous paragraph\u2019s assertion that \u201c…[the] Atonement has the capacity in this life or the life to come to… convert our weaknesses and imperfections into strengths,\u201d plainly connotes an idea of changeability of sexual orientation prevalent in the cultural tradition of the Church.<\/span><\/p>\n

Elder Callister\u2019s observation of the changing power of the Atonement coming into effect \u201cin this life or the life to come\u201d as well as his pointed designation of an \u201cinterim\u201d between when temple recommend \u201cworthy\u201d members begin to \u201cavail themselves\u201d of atoning power and when they are finally \u201crefined\u201d and \u201cperfected\u201d feels to me like yet another denial of any opportunity for real earthly happiness, again with no constructive advice for handling the situation other than to wait it out.<\/span><\/p>\n

So many things are happening within the Church and LDS culture that indicate a broadening understanding of the variety of sexual orientations and a more civil approach to addressing it: the grassroots formation of organizations like Mormons Building Bridges<\/span>\u00a0, the launch of the Church\u2019s official website mormonsandgays.org<\/span>, increasing fellowship of LGBT members<\/span>\u00a0 and investigators in many localities<\/span>, and increasing participation of openly LGBT individuals and couples<\/span>\u00a0 in the Church, among others. Elder Callister\u2019s published address is a sad reminder of the tradition of misunderstanding and deliberate self-distancing from the non-heterosexual experience that has prevailed among modern Church leadership and that the new understanding seems to be slowly displacing.<\/span><\/p>\n
