1. God, through his officiator (the guy leading the ceremony, if you want the guy's name, get use to disappointment) Asks you. And they ask you because it is a sacred thing and it's part of the ceremony that only those agreeing to keep it sacred can continue with the ceremony.

2. a) God asks you. b) The ceremony is sacred and those who don't commit to hold it sacred are not allowed to continue, because that is how God wants it.

Once again, you've AVOIDED answering the WHY you get asked these questions.

If GOD really wants you to do this, it should be in your Scriptures.

Only ONE question this time:

Why don't you point them out?

I have given you logical, reasonable answers I am to the point that I am going to ask you, since my answers are wrong, what answer were you looking for?

The text of the ceremony is not supposed to be in the scriptures we have now. 2/3 of the Plates delivered by Moron to Joseph smith were sealed because we were not ready for the truth they contain. Why do you think God would print what he has commanded people to keep sacred in scriptures given to everyone?

What? The scriptures containing the covenants? Nope, not going there for they are not in the scriptures that would make the command to keep them acred pretty moot don't you think?

Scriptures telling us to go to the temple? I pointed out some from the D&C, you said they did not count.

I have no intention of Showing you a scripture that says we need to covenant with God before going through the temple, for this looks to me like the "God can't make a stone so big he can't move it" argument against God being all powerful.

I have answered your questions as many ways as I can and be truthful, so again, what (in your mind) was the right answer?
