It is possible to choose a heterosexual relationship if you pray sincerely to the Lord for help. This video from a gay Mormon is evidence of it:
Choosing a Heterosexual Marriage While Feeling Same Gender Attraction

What a load of utter twaddle and rot.
Praying to thin air is a futile exercise in stupidity.

I don't agree with Matt either but KTJ in taking the cheap lazy paleo atheist shot you totally miss the point and squander the opportunity to blow Matt's fundy homophobic snake oil out of the water.

I watched the video. He rambles. But having said that and in his defence I guess when you try to make a square out of a circle you'd end up rambling! What it comes down to is "pray the gay away" and his starting point is that the only true pathway to grace is via marriage and children. Without in any way wishing to devalue heterosexual marriage and children I beg to differ. The ascetic path that celibates such as Gandhi took and the Dalai Lama has taken can lead to great levels of spirituality and grace. The guy in the video also admits that marriage is about a lot more than having kids. He says it himself: "Who wants to be alone!" He's right. Marriage is about companionship and it's about companionship first and foremost. Verse after biblical verse regarding marriage describe the relationship between the marriage partners and only incidentally mention children. So if marriage is first and foremost about companionship then why is SSM any different.
I watched that video and I found myself feeling compassion for that guy rather than contempt. You have to feel sorry for a person who's been given a sow's ear and is told to make a silk purse out of it,
Matt, no matter what you say or how you spin it, SSM is going to happen in Australia. This postal survey is shaping up to produce a more massive turnout and a much larger YES result than the Irish referendum of a couple of years ago. I agree it won't settle the question because as Tony Abbott and Eric Abetz have made clear, once it goes back to the federal Parliament with a landslide YES from the survey, the NO camp have already prepared the amendments regarding exemptions for pastry cooks and florists that's going to tie the issue up in knots and keep it alive all through 2018. I think SSM will be an issue in the next federal elections. Bring it on ... if it hasn't split the Liberals first.

Matte I get that you attempt to post provocative posts to create controversy but all you end up doing is making a further dick of yourself. I imagine you'd be the type of person who put those stupid click bait websites on facebook.

Marriage within Mormonism has always and will always be defined as between a man and a woman.
In fact, within the LDS Church, there has always been a differentiation between civil marriage and Temple marriage.
People who are married in the Temple are of course married in a civil ceremony as defined by law. But within Mormonism, Temple marriage is true marriage, where a family is sealed together for eternity.
A civil marriage on its own to a Mormon is seen as less then. People who are married outside the temple while legally married are looked down upon. Questions are asked in gossip as to why that couple hasn't been sealed in the temple and whether they are 'worthy'.

The Mormon Church??
Ppppppppffffffffffffffffffffttttttttttttttt....what a bunch of delusional LOSERS.
Kim Jong-un should launch an ICBM with a thermonuclear warhead to Salt Lake City, Utah.
That would do the entire world a huge favour and get rid of a stupid, idiotic, bullshit CULT.

I am going to be asking the missionaries tomorrow for a blessing with anointed oil to set me on the right path.

I'm still a little confused about where you are currently in your life ... A Jewish Mormon Freemason bisexual transgender Islamic Christian? I have always been Jewish and Christian. The LDS Church is the true Christian church.

Then, get yourself off to the confessional box at a roman catholic church and get the paedophile in a dress to pray to his almighty god delusion to change you from homo to hetro.
