The way that a man can love a woman, and a woman can love a man--it is not possible per Mormonism, that a man can love a man in the same way.

Period. Because love is a gift from God. And the love of a man towards a man is evil.

It's really simple. And it explains how the church cannot budge an inch in recognizing any truth in the love of a man for a man.

Will specific examples convince you? I doubt it. So I won't go to the trouble of acquiring them.
