Didnt know that - you mean in that religion, some are considered better than others? What is that based on - who’s gets an exalted status?

Your ‘status’ has to do with how ‘valiant’ you were in their ‘pre-existance’.
Those born to faithful temple married Mormon families here in the US were the most faithful. If you were born to a prestigious LDS family than you were more faithful than most and destined for greatness.
Then comes those who were not born LDS but who converted. The earlier the conversion the more valiant you had obviously been (I converted as a teenager - so I was pretty good). But converts are almost always looked upon by those who were born/raised in a big name LDS family (like Romney).
Then come those born outside the US.
Then American Indians, then Blacks (who they used to teach had the mark of Cain because they were ‘fence sitters’ in the ‘war in heaven’ between God and Satan (God’s second oldest spirit child).
No, I am not kidding.
Definitely! - My ex's family was one of the founding Mormon families, and her Father was treated like royalty everywhere. He gave me a temple admit, and I wasn't even Mormon.
