You know those polygamists. Can't say the word, ya know, they don;t really exist in polite society.

See the problem with conversation is it out to be an open exchange but, when one side decides to take a global view of how they are going to manage the conversation then there is no personal interaction.

There is just one side saying that is how it is.

I mean really, who says “The question he should have asked is”?

Conversations start at different points of information learned not where you want to start.

It’s a little like someone asking about Christ and then you say “The question he should have asked.....” and then going back to the story of of Jesus birth or even going back to Old Testament.

God’s message can start from just about anywhere.

Are Mormon marriages different? Is divorce allowed?

Mormon marriages are different from most marriages because they are considered eternal. If a husband and wife are sealed together in the temple, they can be together on into the celestial kingdom. However, the church does have a process for annulment and sees divorce as an unfortunately necessary evil. In Mormon President Gordon Hinckley's words: "There is now and again a legitimate cause for divorce. I am not one to say that it is never justified. But I say without hesitation that this plague among us, which seems to be growing everywhere, is not of God, but rather is the work of the adversary of righteousness and peace and truth."

Just as a civil marriage does not automatically translate into a temple sealing for a Mormon couple, a civil divorce does not unseal them. If a divorcing couple wishes to become unsealed, they must receive a cancellation of sealing, which requires approval from high-ranking church officials. A Mormon woman must receive a cancellation of sealing prior to remarrying if she wishes her next marriage to be sealed in the temple. However, because men are permitted to be sealed to more than one woman, they do not have to cancel a previous sealing in order to remarry in the temple.

I don’t get the whole P thing. It is verboten in the physical but expected in the celestial kingdom?

How many unmarried women die as a percentage of LDS and then look forward to being used in the after life?

Sound like m oslem lite, to me.
