In June, California church authorities read a statement from Salt Lake City 
leaders over the pulpit that church members "do all [they] can to support 
the proposed constitutional amendment."

And, really, if bunches of mormons voted for it, even tho the church leaders 
didn't explicitly say to, don't you think maybe it was the teachings of the 
mormon church that caused it?
