Since plural marriage exists, there will obviously be more women in the highest degree than men. Perhaps it's not a matter of need to populate and more of a need to be married.



Why? Why a need to be married?

Cuz Joe said so! Women cannot get to the CK without being married to a righteous Mormon man.

So is BCSpace correct then?. Are you saying that you have personally seen that there are more women than men in the highest degree? If so, do you know why it is this way? Did you also ask the tourguide why this wouldn't make God a respector of genders and why it wouldn't degrade women becuase it's no longer as big a deal for them to make it as compared with men becuase it'd be more likely for them?

In order:

I have no idea. No. NA. I'll put that on my list of questions for when the Visions come.

Well, actually, according to LDS doctrine, both women AND men have to be married to enter the CK.

It all goes back to the gospel principle of families being forever, and man and woman not being complete without each other.
