On October 25, 2016, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints released a new website, www.mormonandgay.lds.org,\xa0an update of its previous site articulating LDS positions on various aspects of same-sex attraction. What is the new site like? How is it an improvement on the previous site and its messaging? Did the church make any big missteps\xa0through anything on the site? Who is the site's primary audience? About five hours after the site's launch, Mormon Matters host Dan Wotherspoon was joined by Boyd Jay Petersen, Jody England Hansen, Wendy Williams Montgomery, and Christian Harrison to talk about these and other aspects of this site and its launch.\xa0
