This time on how the Church of Latter Day Saints (the Mormon church) financed the Proposition 8 campaign in California, which removed the right for same-sex couples to get married.A couple of quotes from the trailer:- "We know the voice of the Lord, and when he wants us to do something, we know how to do it."- "You're not just talking about the law, you're talking about people."- "This is simple, this is just love."
