#REDIRECT [[Question: Was Catholic support for a Rome Italy temple due to Mormon efforts to pass California Proposition 8?]]
 
 
==Rome Italy Temple and California Prop 8==
 
 
 
An e-mail circulating has claimed that Catholic support for a Rome Italy temple is very high because of LDS efforts around California Prop 8.
 
 
 
The claim as circulated is false.  Church counsel in Europe stated:
 
 
 
:Please keep in mind that our efforts to obtain the necessary building permissions within the Rome City Administration have not come to full fruition and remain at a delicate stage. Consequently, we need to be cautious and judicious when we discuss what is happening there and should take care not to spread incorrect information.{{ref|counsel.1}}
 
 
 
More information is available in a bulletin from Church Educational System cited below.
