We keep hearing that the Mormons hate all the attention they’ve been getting since Prop 8. But, the leaders of the Mormon church made themselves an issue and they are going to be getting all kinds of attention. They decided to become a political operation to defeat Prop. 8. And, they haven’t been upfront about all of their involvement.

American News Project has found evidence that the involvement of the Mormon church was far more extensive than the leaders of the church have suggested — or reported under California law:

Activists claim that money from the Mormon Church was the deciding factor in passing Proposition 8 in California – banning gay marriage. The church claims to have only spent a few thousand dollars on the campaign, but ANP has uncovered evidence that may expose a gaping hole in that claim.

A very gaping hole on the record. Watch the video:

The Mormons have an obligation to be honest about what they did in Prop. 8. Not because it’s moral, but because it’s the law.
