You nor none of us know the decisions made inside the secretive cult, we and regular Mormons aren't even allowed into the Temples...
Dude! Don't let that secret out. The millions of regular Mormons who are going into temples every day will be very confused. And the LDS leaders who encourage every member of the Church to prepare and attend the temple will too!
As a basic policy, new Mormon converts are encouraged to prepare to enter the temple after one year of membership. Yes, the regular ones. (I'm not sure what other kind of member there is besides regular. Premium?)
Oh, and I guess you didn't get the memo: The "secretive cult" meme isn't getting very far off the ground these days.
Like I said before, you -- and Sunstone -- need new material.
That was reporting by the Mormon magazine Sunstone, of a meeting and statements from 2005 that you first denied, and now you seem to still be denying took place, you seem to be denying the entire article, which you have never read, and did not know existed.
You also seem to want to confuse people about the secret ceremonies of the temples, and there are not “millions” of non-temple Mormons “going into temples every day”.
Yes, a Temple recommend is “Premium” membership and is required for instance, to have witnessed Mitt and Ann’s secret marriage ceremony in the temple.
Temple membership requires being vetted every two years, and the ID being renewed every 12 months, and secrecy of what is said in the temples is imperative.
Without the temple recommend, one cannot become a God.
All in all, you seem rather frantic to do anything to keep away from the facts.
The holy Prophet approved of Bishop Mitt’s plan to run for the presidency in a private meeting in 2005, and “a senior LDS official close to the First Presidency” said that the Quorom of Seventy felt the “greater good” was to get Mitt into the White House.
This is from the official Mormon site and tells us why Ann’s parents were forbidden to witness their daughter’s Mormon marriage, they could not enter the Temple, just as a regular, non temple Mormon could not.
Who can attend the temple ceremony?
“”Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who have a current temple recommend may be invited as guests to a sealing ceremony in the temple. A temple recommend is a small card that demonstrates they have interviewed with the appropriate priesthood leaders and been found worthy to enter the House of the Lord. Wedding couples are asked to keep those guests to a relatively small number, primarily immediate family and a few close friends; this allows the service to remain reverent and sacred.””

Do you have a temple recommend? Will you link us to the exact wording of that marriage ceremony?
