You know (I hate it when Hillary says this all the time!), I did not see a single thing in what you posted about secrecy.

Oh...

I did see THIS part where God evidently thought you might miss the point the first time:

(and I have appointed unto my servant Joseph to hold this power in the last days, and there is never but one on the earth at a time on whom this power and the keys of this priesthood are conferred)

Secret is when you tell your girlfriend you think some guys butt is cute but not to tell him you said so.

Sacred is when God tells you some thing that is so important you are not to share it with those who are not worthy

What happens in the temple is sacred, not secret, if you really want to know, join, keep the commandments and once you are worthy, you will be able to go and learn, otherwise, if you are not willing to prepare yourself, get used to not knowing, because God said not to tell you.

I did see THIS part where God evidently thought you might miss the point the first time:

Do you have a point here or are you just flailing around saying everything negative you can based on anything said? Of course Joseph was the one who held all the keys, of course the current prophet holds all the keys, of course the power to act on those keys flows down from the prophet, or else all the "off shoots" of the Mormon church would hold the keys also (if they had been given them) but if you leave the church, the right to use the keys stays with the prophet, the only man enabled to actively use the keys on the face of the earth.
