Bear in mind that, but for a less than 3k travel reimbursement, "the Church" has not donated to the prop 8 campaign. Instead, it has all been individual donors. OTOH, "The Church" has donated much to many relief efforts. I think there is a lot of commentary all the time on other issues, there is just rarely such a specific request to devote resources to support an issue.

I hope we focus less on issues of "public" morality and refocus upon issues of personal morality.

I wonder if he's related to Dan Vogel.

Has the LDS church really donated $19 million to fight prop. 8? Or is this money LDS members have contributed?

I'm guessing it must be the latter, since in all the news reports I've seen on Prop 8 fundraising, I've never seen the LDS church at the top of any list.
