The LDS Church can claim to “love the sinner and hate the sin” all it wants, but if there were REAL love for LGBTQ people in Mormonism, there would be no need for the Mama Dragons—a group that started with seven women and is now almost 800 strong. Our hope is that one day there will be no need for mothers to have to turn into dragons to protect their children from their religious community. Until then, we are here with the courage, talons, and fire needed to protect God’s LGBTQ sons and daughters.
