    Utah is a little weird in that they aren’t so Mich maga as much as they are Mormon, they have progressive politics when it just so happens to suit the church’s needs

      Sort of. Our leadership have been doing some incredibly sketchy things lately and are very buddy-buddy with Trump.

      Churches are frequently wayy more progressive than the State.

          Ever heard of the Civil Rights Movement? Perhaps a pastor named Martin Luther King Jr? Or Cornel West?
