You have to get married in this lifetime, if you want to be able to enter into the highest degree of glory within the Celestial Kingdom.
How conclusive! How bounded! How limiting! And we come to realize again as it bears heavily upon us that this time, this life, this mortality is the time to prepare to meet God. How lonely and barren will be the so-called single blessedness throughout eternity! How sad to be separate and single and apart through countless ages when one could, by meeting requirements, have happy marriage for eternity by marrying in the temple by proper authority and continue on in ever-increasing joy and happiness, growth, and development.

Ironically, Kevin is guaranteed exaltation, having been sealed in the Temple and by the Holy Spirit of Promise (which has recently been downgraded to just the regular old HG). Per D&C 132, he can only lose his exaltation by shedding innocent blood, and even there, there's a whole lot of wiggle room in that word "innocent."
Looks like Wade might end up as Kevin's personal servant in the Celestial Kingdom.

I'm still a member of the church and am still sealed to my exwife so that means I get exaltation in the hereafter. I'll make Wade-boy my servant -- he can be the altar boy and fetch me some wine when I snap my fingers!
Poor Wade, he can't have any sexual pleasures in this life or in the life to come. And I'm having it all, with cute boys! Are you jealous, Wade? Try it, you'll like it.

There's a reason to shoot for Terrestrial glory if I've ever seen one.
Shudder.
Imagine ....
"You called, Master?"
Zadok: I did not have a faith crisis. I discovered that the Church was having a truth crisis. Maksutov: That's the problem with this supernatural stuff, it doesn't really solve anything. It's a placeholder for ignorance.

Anyway, those of you who expressed interest in returning to full faith in the restored gospel of Christ can contact me at the other board.
I am out of here.
Thanks, -Wade Englund-
I hope the door hurt on the way out. You can go over there at the MAD whoreboard and talk about Facismile No. 3 and your precious Book of Abraham which Joseph Smith translated from funerary papyrus. Oh, did I ever tell you that the Explanations of Facsimile No. 3 were translated FROM funerary papyrus? That's right, Wade-boy. We have the goods right in front of us for easy comparison.
Take your cult faith and your Facsimile and shove it. We aren't stupid on this board like they are over there. And, the moderators over there are like whores -- selling their souls for cheap tricks. Should the moderators like to come over here to debate Facsimile No. 3 tell them I'll kick their sorry asses and send them packing back to MAD where they can lick their wounds.
I'm disappointed that my genuine outreach was dismissed, especially after you made it a point to offer the same to anyone else interested.
Once again, you paint your faith in a very bad light.
