Monogamy rule in Heaven?

Post by _moksha »

Another question I have in Mormon theology, is that if we bind monogamous hetersexual marriage as the only permissible form on marriage on earth, are we also not binding it as such in Heaven?

I don't care Your prop8, (even it is about 8% tithe instead of 10%).

But I have a brain teaser, read yesterday on a HUNGARIAN site, in english : http://leiterjakab.blog.hu/2008/11/01/yu

John married Peter and his sister. If no laws were broken, what can you say about John?

John is a bisexual Mormon.

As You see, average hungarians know much of Mormonism and US today ...

Or John is a minister/priest/Mormon bishop etc?

(I have legally married 3 women and one man, been divorced from only one person, and yet I have only one spouse and one ex-spouse.)

What about the risk of being shot by a jealous husband, who tracks you clear across the country and ends up shooting you somewhere around the Missouri area? Not that being shot in any other area would be less painful.

How naïve you can get?
Are you playing dumb, or you are clueless?

What did they tell to Grant Palmer when they disfellowshipped Him?
"You may not take sacrament, but you are allowed to pay tithing"
Same goes here.

PS: At some point you've gotta be able to figure out the obvious.
