Utah and the Mormon church make me weep again
At this point I have nothing but contempt for the institution that is the Mormon church. They need to lose their tax exempt status immediately for one thing. They're basically a political organization and constantly meddle in the affairs of other states. As if opposing cannabis legalization wasn't enough, they even oppose assisted suicide. They clearly have some kind of knowledge that God wants terminally ill people to suffer horribly prior to their inevitable death.
Thomas S. Monson is a false prophet and can go straight to hell for all I care. The LDS church was started by a god damn conman and continues to be a fraud to this day.

Mormon leaders send letter to voters urging opposition of recreational marijuana, medically assisted suicide
The LDS Church is urging Mormons in four Western states to "let their voices by heard" in opposition to legalizing recreational marijuana use and physician-assisted suicide.
In a letter sent Wednesday, the governing First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has called on church members in Arizona, California and Nevada to oppose pro-marijuana initiatives on ballots in those states, citing the drug's perceived risks to children, youths and adults.
"Drug abuse in the United States is at epidemic proportions, and the dangers of marijuana to public health and safety are well documented," says the one-page letter, signed by LDS Church President Thomas S. Monson and his counselors, Henry B. Eyring and others.
In a separate letter sent to Coloradoans, the trio invoked the faith's "firm belief in the sanctity of life" in encouraging members to oppose that state's Proposition 106.
