(you see in order to go to the temple, you are asked to covenant with God to keep the proceedings sacred and not reveal them, you are asked to do this of your own free will or not participate.


I've two simple questions:

You are asked to do this by WHOM?

Is it written in your SCRIPTURES to do this?

The officiator of the ceremony politely asks if anyone is not here of their own free will and choice to raise their hand, they will be invited to spend time elsewhere in the temple, where there are some really nice quiet waiting rooms, no-one will say a thing.

Is it written in your SCRIPTURES to do this?

The LDS scriptures are replete with discussions of agency, God will force man to do nothing, even coming to earth was a choice.
