The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints created a new policy barring parishioners from legally carrying a firearm during services. After receiving pushback, the church was forced to "clarify" their position. Instead of sticking solely with firearms, the church says no "lethal weapons"are allowed on the property.
Firearms
Churches are dedicated for the worship of God and as havens from the cares and concerns of the world. With the exception of current law enforcement officers, the carrying of lethal weapons on Church property, concealed or otherwise, is prohibited.
