American Mormons advocate for the rights of same-sex couples.
Hundreds of Mormons in the US state of Utah decided to leave the church community in protest against church policies against same-sex couples and their children. The corresponding letters were sent to the leadership of the church.
Last week, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints approved new rules for congregations in same-sex marriage. It was decided to excommunicate them, and not to baptize their children until adulthood.
About half of Utah's population is Mormon. According to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' own estimates, the number of its members worldwide has exceeded 13 million, with about 6,7 million living outside the United States.
Earlier, US Deputy Prime Minister Joe Biden visited New York for same-sex wedding. The newlyweds decided to make their celebration public in honor of the adoption of a law that allowed same-sex marriage in all US states.
