Amid an increasingly rancorous debate about immigration, LDS leaders have urged Utah representatives to be compassionate in their push for legal reforms.
Religion has no place in Government. So I pretty much ignore what they say. Not everyone shares the belief in God and it should not dictate these decisions.
Religious leaders SHOULD preach compassion---that's their job. Perhaps we'd prefer the "Rev. Fred Phelps" approach? (Rev. Phelps has been accused of MANY things, but I don't think "misplaced compassion' is one of them)..
That having been said, religious leaders should stay out of the everyday practicalities of law enforcement---unless they want to 'weigh in' on ALL subjects (which none of them do)...
Today, many of Utah's estimated 100,000 undocumented immigrants likely are LDS.
LDS is on a membership drive like the Catholic Church.
