I have a question for the LDS members. What is your take on the LDS Church’s role in addressing homelessness in Salt Lake City, and Utah in general?
Here’s mine. The LDS Church is headquartered in SLC, the heart of the homeless issue in Utah. This is the case because most of the homeless resources and services are located in downtown SLC. Since the pandemic, homelessness has grown throughout the country, a large portion of which are older people. What is the LDS churches role in addressing this?
Honestly, it disgusts me that a trillion dollar, tax-exempt, organization, with a temple surrounded by the sick and dying people right outside their gates, doesn’t use that money to end homelessness nationwide, at least. It baffles me. I think it’s evil. They are certainly not doing what they say Jesus did. It’s literally Christianity’s mission to help the poor.
They have more money than god, and they watch people starve from their lofty towers.
I think it shameful. Your thoughts?
