Not sure what the deal is here. Prop 8 passed; I wouldn't have voted for it, I think it's wrong, but I don't live there. Someone voted for it, and I imagine that some of those who voted for it are black, or Mormons, just as I imagine that some of those who voted against it are black, or Mormons. The question is, how many? Some people clearly think there's been a vote swing in one or more demographics - that's their opinion.

I also imagine that many gay Mormons are either in the closet or estranged from the church. I don't think the church of LDS approves of homosexuality.

The challenge to the church of LDS' tax exempt status is a clever tactic, but you seem to be suggesting that the challenge is a good thing. Is this so and if so, why?
