This month's Woo News is

Not only is it Pride month but it's also been almost 10 years since the Mormon church issued their policy against the children of LGBTQIA+ parents. We take a look at the effects that policy had, the increasingly draconian measures the government is taking, and we read between the lines of Mormon church policies. We also look at the measures people are taking to improve the lives of LGBTQIA+. For Media of Great Price, we watched the lovely 2018 movie Rafiki about two lesbian women in Kenya. And we end with good news out of Paris about a new monument. Happy Pride Month!    Show notes:  https://www.aclu.org/news/lgbtq-rights/why-utah-no-utopia-lgbt-equality-despite-progress https://archive.thinkprogress.org/the-utah-compromise-is-a-dangerous-lgbt-trojan-horse-db790ad3b69e/ https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/handbook-changes-same-sex-marriages-elder-christofferson https://kutv.com/news/local/group-holds-mass-resignation-from-lds-church-in-slc-saturday https://www.sltrib.com/religion/local/2017/09/30/mormon-general-conference-resumes-for-the-first-time-monson-will-not-be-attending-any-sessions/ https://www.lgbtqnation.com/tag/good-news/  https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/president-nelson-handbook-change https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2018/03/26/mormon-leaders-update-rules-to-allow-adults-in-the-room-for-interviews-with-children-women/ https://www.thechurchnews.com/2018/4/3/23221628/new-apostles-reflect-growth-diversity-of-the-church-2/ https://mormonmentalhealthassoc.org/resources/position-statements/november-5th-policy-reversal/ https://le.utah.gov/~2023/bills/static/HB0228.html https://le.utah.gov/~2025/bills/static/HB0521.html https://le.utah.gov/~2025/bills/static/HB0283.html https://le.utah.gov/~2024/bills/static/HB0316.html https://le.utah.gov/~2024/bills/static/HB0527.html https://wheatandtares.org/2017/11/04/the-policy-remember-remember-the-5th-of-november/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_and_the_Church_of_Jesus_Christ_of_Latter-day_Saints https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_teachings_on_homosexuality_in_the_Church_of_Jesus_Christ_of_Latter-day_Saints https://www.thetrevorproject.org/blog/the-trevor-project-celebrates-utah-bill-protecting-lgbtq-youth-from-conversion-therapy/ https://www.deseret.com/utah/2023/2/17/23604347/conversion-therapy-ban-lgbt-utah-bill/ https://www.newsweek.com/utah-lgbtq-conversion-therapy-law-1483039 https://archive.org/details/Homosexuality1981/page/n3/mode/2up?view=theater https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/love-motivated-policy-changes-toward-lgbt-parents-children https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/11/06/455014520/mormon-church-declares-same-sex-couples-to-be-apostates https://www.npr.org/2019/04/04/709988377/in-major-shift-mormon-church-rolls-back-controversial-policies-toward-lgbt-membe https://archive.sltrib.com/article.php?id=3144035&itype=CMSID https://mormonleaks.io/wiki/index.php?title=File:Re-_Gay_Couples_and_Baby_Blessings-2015-07-21.pdf https://mormonleaks.io/wiki/documents/2/28/Re-_Gay_Couples_and_Baby_Blessings-2015-07-21.pdf https://protectldschildren.org/ https://goodmenproject.com/politics-2/mass-protest-against-sexually-explicit-interviews-by-mormon-bishops-wcz/ https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2018/03/26/mormon-leaders-update-rules-to-allow-adults-in-the-room-for-interviews-with-children-women/ https://www.thechurchnews.com/2018/4/3/23221628/new-apostles-reflect-growth-diversity-of-the-church-2/ https://www.littler.com/news-analysis/asap/two-utah-laws-related-religious-expression-workplace-take-effect#:~:text=H.B.%20396%20%E2%80%93%20Workplace%20Discrimination%20Amendments&text=H.B.%20396%20generally%20prohibits%20an,employee's%20sincerely%20held%20religious%20beliefs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_SB_296_(2015) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obergefell_v._Hodges https://www.scotusblog.com/cases/case-files/obergefell-v-hodges/ https://sblog.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/14-556_Major_Religious_Organizations.pdf https://fedsoc.org/contributors/robin-wilson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26xMnkZCxoc https://kutv.com/news/local/group-holds-mass-resignation-from-lds-church-in-slc-saturday https://quitmormon.com/faq https://equalityutah.org/advocacy/?search_year=2024#tracker   MOGP: Rafiki: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8286894/  Where it's streaming: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/rafiki-2018  Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rafiki_(film)    Happy News:  https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/paris-unveils-memorial-lgbtq-victims-nazi-regime-persecutions-rcna207691   Other appearances: Chris Shelton interviewed us in the beginning of a series on Mormonism.

We have a guest for our main segment this time. Chris Shelton is a cult expert content creator who eats, breathes, and sleeps high-demand, coercive groups. We discuss everything from what makes a group a cult, how to identify them, is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints a cult, and proper ways to approach conversations about high-demand groups. Be sure to check out our series collaborating on Chris's YouTube channel linked below. After that we discuss Don't Look Up, a 2021 movie about the cult of politics and a major natural disaster that affects everybody across the globe.

BYU and SLC anti-vice. We discuss the history of Charles A. Callis, his career in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and politics, and his final assignment before death, creating a sexual purity surveillance and counseling/therapy program for Mormons in the 40s. After his death, Spencer W. Kimball took the reins and vastly expanded the reach and purposes of the program, resulting in The Miracle of Forgiveness. Cleon Skousen was running raids on gay clubs and anybody else seen as commie enemies of god's country. The systems they created have adapted, evolved, and conformed to the times, but never gone away, as evidenced by the recent SL Tribue piece about BYU's retrenchment and culture of fear. Then we chat about Minority report, a Tom Cruise sci-fi flick with surprisingly profound concepts. We wrap with happy news about the first openly transgender congressperson in American history.   Show Notes:  https://mormonstudies.as.virginia.edu/gay-rights-and-mormonism/ https://mormonstudies.as.virginia.edu/gay-rights-and-mormonism/05-the-miracle-of-forgiveness/ https://mormonstudies.as.virginia.edu/gay-rights-and-mormonism/16-the-cure-2-0/ https://mormonstudies.as.virginia.edu/gay-rights-and-mormonism/07-salt-lake-city-gay-scene/ https://archive.org/details/spencerwkimballt00kimb/page/271/mode/2up?view=theater https://ourphoenixfoundation.org/includes/about.php https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evergreen_International https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/topics/gay/individuals?lang=eng https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/topics/transgender/understanding?lang=eng https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2025/01/05/byu-blue-why-these-are-dark-days/ https://fairnessforall.org/the-utah-compromise/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._Cleon_Skousen https://police.slc.gov/about/history/ https://lris.com/recent-developments/2012/05/salt-lake-city-vice-squad-disbanded/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_E._Talmage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed_Smoot_hearings https://prophetsseersandrevelators.wordpress.com/2021/10/31/the-political-manifesto/ https://contentdm.lib.byu.edu/digital/collection/DE2/id/201100 https://news.google.com.au/newspapers?nid=Aul-kAQHnToC&dat=18961109&printsec=frontpage&hl=en https://www.uen.org/utah_history_encyclopedia/e/ELECTIONS.shtml https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People%27s_Party_(Utah) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1896_United_States_presidential_election_in_Utah https://archive.org/details/improvementera3707unse/page/434/mode/2up?view=theater https://archiveviewer.org/collections/en/improvement-era#1934 https://mormonstudies.as.virginia.edu/david-o-mckay-diary-excerpts/w-cleon-skousen/ https://www.qsaltlake.com/news/2009/09/28/the-oppressive-50s/ http://www.nomorestrangers.org/timeline-of-mormon-thinking-about-homosexuality/ http://www.elisarolle.com/queerplaces/fghij/Jack%20Pembroke.html https://www.glapn.org/sodomylaws/sensibilities/utah.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBTQ_rights_in_Utah#Conversion_therapy https://books.google.com/books?id=rlC1DgAAQBAJ&pg=PP1#v=onepage&q&f=false https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Brigham_Young_University_LGBTQ_history https://web.archive.org/web/20100122080551/http://www.affirmation.org/memorial/joseph_fielding_smith.shtml https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ensign/1981/04/elder-charles-a-callis-twentieth-century-missionary?lang=eng https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Pack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_A._Callis https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2001/04/them-that-honour-me-i-will-honour?lang=eng https://thesingleleaf.com/tag/charles-albert-callis/ https://rsc.byu.edu/prophets-apostles-last-dispensation/charles-albert-callis https://catalog.churchofjesuschrist.org/assets/2d1fb5a0-211a-4908-baca-5e3dd9e145eb/0/178?lang=eng https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/chd/individual/charles-albert-callis-1866?lang=eng Article Shannon brought up: The Role of the LDS Church in Utah Politics: An Insider's Look  https://www.mrm.org/utah-politics    MOGP: Minority Report: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0181689/?ref_=tttrv  Where it's streaming: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/minority-report    Happy News: https://apnews.com/article/sarah-mcbride-congress-transgender-lgbtq-delaware-9cce7f778e6b57dfdb08986d7410404e?taid=677918364fe1660001b83485&utm_campaign=TrueAnthem&utm_medium=AP&utm_source=Twitter   Email: glassboxpodcast@gmail.com  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GlassBoxPod  Patreon page for documentary: https://www.patreon.com/SeerStonedProductions Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/glassboxpodcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/GlassBoxPod  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glassboxpodcast/  Merch store: https://www.redbubble.com/people/exmoapparel/shop Or find the merch store by clicking on “Store” here: https://glassboxpodcast.com/index.html One time Paypal donation: bryceblankenagel@gmail.com  Venmo: Shannon-Grover-10

Welcome to another Huge Niblet episode. And yes, it's a bit huge. (You saw the time stamp!) In the A segment, we discuss Hugh Nibley's 1969 diatribe titled Science Fiction and the Gospel as well as the article that likely triggered his rage induced lecture. Then we move into our penultimate Approaching Zion discussion. Following that, we have some excellent news about Gen Z women leaving religion.
