Quote:SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Two months after Mormon Kate Kelly led hundreds in a demonstration to shed light on gender inequality in the religion — defying church orders to stay off Temple Square — the founder of a prominent Mormon women's group is facing excommunication.
Kelly said she was shocked, dismayed and devastated to receive a letter Sunday from the bishop of her congregation in Virginia informing her that a disciplinary hearing had been set for June 22 to discuss the possibility of her ouster. The leader of Ordain Women is accused of apostasy, defined as repeated and public advocacy of positions that oppose church teachings.
I'm sure they'd burn her at the stake if they thought they could get away with it.
What kills me is that, as far as I understand, they call their disciplinary hearings "Courts of Love" - what bullshit.
Hopefully denying women equal status is the LDS church is what kills the religion, but in the meantime it sucks to be an LDS woman.
