I would not think that any sane "Christian" woman would enter into an LDS Church and "submit" to their prohibition on coffee or Pepsi.
Today, and today only, I am not going to go to war with you about anything. No matter how nasty you get so go ahead and take your best shots.
I think the three of us know exactly WHY the Mormon Church is placing this restriction.
How about tatoos. Mormonism prohibits tatoos. Should we extend the prohibition against tatoos, or multiple piercings?
It isn’t like coffee, tea or cola are abhorrent substances that would actually defile the BUILDING in any way. Mormons allow food and drink into the building during many social functions. The only time of defilement is to Mormons who partake of the substances. The substances themselves are not “evil.” This is nothing like a ham sandwich.
Is there not a difference between submission and respect?
