Yesterday a joint letter by various religious leaders was released. It was signed by many leaders of many denominations including "H. Bishop H. David Burton, Presiding Bishop of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints"
The letter specifically warns that "employment discrimination, employment benefits, adoption, education, healthcare, elder care, housing, property, and taxation" are areas that will be affected if same-sex marriage is legalized. It seems that the Church is now on record as favoring discrimination against gay people across the board.
