NOT TO TELL WHAT GOES ON THERE?

Elsie, you are there to learn of God, he asks you.

First the officiator, who is leading the session tells you that you will need to keep the things of the temple sacred, then they ask if you are willing to do so of your own free will and choice, then they ask you to covenant with God that you will do so. The covenant is made and everyone who is to continue with that session has covenanted with God.

Why is this a problem for you?

Do you think you are entitled to know everything that happens in the Vatican?
Monasteries?
Nunneries?
How about Jewish synagogues?

There are plenty of things in this world you will not learn unless you join the group teaching it to their flock, why the obsession with us?

Does HE 'ask' you in an AUDIBLE voice??

 

Why do you 'need' to??

 

It's a 'problem' for me (and you, too) that I can find NOWHERE in your Scriptures that REQUIRES you to 'do' the things that you 'do' in the temple.

 

NO 'commands' from GOD are found.

 

I find it ODD that you guys DO things that are NOT in your scriptures and, apparentl;y, have no justification for doing them.

All Catholic rites are not only open to the public, but published to the world for all to see.

Interesting: I started to search the web for references to LDS rites. I came across several that compared them to Masonic rites. Since I am not LDS nor have I ever been in an LDS ceremony, I cannot stand as expert, however, as a 32nd degree Scottish Rite Mason, I have been through the Masonic rites and have to say that the websites are right on. Do you or any other LDS member have commentary on the similarities and the extent of these purported drastic oaths taken?
