While many believe that "Mormonism" to be harmful to the LGB"T" movement, in reality, it is LGB"T" itself that is intrinsically harmful and destructive. I think it would be important to highlight two studies on the issue of an active homosexual lifestyle and the health risks associated therewith, both from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Shifting blame to the fact that Utah has a high Latter-day Saint population is disingenuous.
(for those wondering, I have "T" in brackets as there are only two genders, and frankly, the LGB parts of the movement are shooting themselves in the foot, as are their "allies," in normalising a mental illness; for more, see, for e.g. Ryan T. Anderson, When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment and Sexuality and Gender: Findings from the Biological, Psychological, and Social Sciences by Lawrence S. Mayer, M.B., M.S., PhD. and Paul R. McHugh, PhD.)
