[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

I knew your statement was coming and in a sense it is a fair comment. However, is participation in the "Temple Ceremonies" an additional source of sin? For example, I can commit theft then turn around and swear thus comitting two sins.

As far as becoming LDS a person can be deceived thus raising the question when does being a victim of deceit become culpable?

Putting aside my statement for the moment, let us add something to your question and then re-ask it. I think the answer will prove more meaningful:

I wonder if by participating in such a ritual a Christian is committing a sin that cannot be forgiven, or is he merely engaging in harmless actions without any spiritual consequences.

When they learn the TRUTH; of course.

And that's EXACTLY what will happen to them if they stay of FR any length of time.
