"Members may not have copies of their membership records. Under no circumstances may membership records be given to anyone other than the bishop or a clerk. Although members may not have copies of their membership records, they are encouraged to have copies of their Individual Ordinance Sumary (IOS) for themselves and any dependent children living at home ("Church Handbook of Instructions," [2006], 145)."
Uh...
This is surprising - why?
Good morning Elsie
:)
Gentile; YOU are NOT privy to the INNER workings of GOD!!
Only our Living Prophet is.
If 'technology' is used to limit access to VITAL Church Records, then I know for a FACT that the LP® and his Unanimous Yesmen will have gotten instructions from GOD to do so!
--MormonDude(I thought you ANTIs KNEW this stuff!)
YOU get a copy - THEY don't!
That's ok.
We could quote other official church documents and get the same response!
A #3 checking in. Put me down for heretical.
Ok...
4. None of the above.

And the Constitution will be rescued when ?????

What does the US Constitution have to do with the information one provides to their church, a group one joins voluntarily?
If the rules of the club you want to join are odious, don’t join. But the US Constitution has naught to say on this topic.
I would also be 4) None of the above. A number 4 who has yet to understand the apparently morbid fascination non Mormons have with the actions of the Mormon church.
“A number 4 who has yet to understand the apparently morbid fascination non Mormons have with the actions of the Mormon church.”
No doubt there are those.
Others just have a fascination with the morbid... Keeps the Earth in balance. And you know that is important.

Then this is a precaution TO KEEP THE INFORMATION FROM THE WRONG PEOPLE, not a way to keep the information from the member themselves.
“We have had problems with some members (like the type that takes screen shots of databases of other peoples info) taking a copy of membership records and using it to mail out things like Christmas cards or wedding invitations.”
They mail a Christmas card to themselves?
1. Current Members
2. Former Members
3. Christians

you forgot us former W.A.S.P.s.
Never mind. TheDon says he can get records for other people besides himself. I thought this only dealt with your own personal record. My bad.
There are three distinct groups on FR that have an interest in things mormon:
1. Current Members
2. Former Members
3. Christians

Sorry, I thought you were a Current Member...

SEEING is not having a COPY.
Why do some seem to have a COMPREHENSION problem?
The post just quotes the LDS software itself. No more."
AMPU, that's not the point. The LDS church has been teaching recently about a psychological disoder called "Shaken Faith Syndrome". The members are being told that those that question anything are mentally ill.
Just yesterday, in fact Freeper RESTORNU on another thread told me that I should lose all visitation rights to my three daughters until my "mind was healed". I was a high preist and resigned myself and my three daughters from the church a few months ago after finding that some of these "crazy" mormon prophetic quotes were true. The church rejected my right to resign my daughters, for among other things, the fact that they are over 8 years old. They claim the LDS age of accountablility supercedes my parental rights over my minor children. I have had four visits to my house since this letter by mormons, and they have asked to talk to my daughters.
Sentinel,
I am sorry to hear of your abuse at the hands of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints - the mormons.
I also know you are not alone in the abuse you suffer.
If I were you, I’d hire the meanest attorney you can find, who can stand up for your parental rights. The church does not have any legal jurisdiction to decide these matters.
I would also buy a nice dog to greet them when they trespass.
As to their database, good luck. Even Catholics can’t seem to prevent them from baptizing dead Catholics - or Jews for that matter - despite their promises to the contrary.
I’ll be praying for you.
As a parent, if you attain parental rights in your state, you will have the right to decide how the kids are brought up, including their religious faith. From there, a lawsuit.
As you’ve learned, they are arrogant.
