If the lds husband does not call his wife after death

? How does he call her? Like shouting out after she is dead - Like in grief?

Part of the secret temple ceremony is a new name for the wife

So this ceremony is when? When they get married? Does she pick our her new name?

So the lds wife must be terrified to defy, even question him, then to be called unworthy by her priest husband, then the bishop then the stake president.

Well, if she believes it. I can't understand, what happens to them when they become mormons - common sense is suddenly forbidden? I'm trying to make sense of this - does being a husband automatically make him a priest? So I take it - their private business is the church's business if a bishop or a president are involved. Stake? Like putting a stake through you/backstabbing? :)

Can you imagine what that is like to live under?

No. Reading about it for five minutes is enough. I wouldn't live next door to anyone I was terrified of - much less under my roof.

Now what you posted, is this something like their 'original' ways/many years ago or is this practiced currently?

Good question. I think the husband calls his wife/wives after his death.
Yes, it is when they get married in the temple, where she gets her named, the name is assigned someone not her husband.
Men become this priests thing at around 12 or so, don’t really get it myself.
Yes, their personal problems can become known by the bishop and stake president, friends well everyone I guess. My lds family seems to want everyone to know.
No this is current.
Look in freepmail.
