Weed is legal in Washington, a temple trip is a good idea!

Post by _Polygamy-Porter »

I need to talk to my friend to see if he can still get me a temple recommend.

I would enjoy participating in the Mormon Temple ceremony with the blessing of sister Mary Jane.

Temple?? I do not understand that desire at all. wouldn't it be more exciting to walk down to 7-11 and buy a donut? It has been some decades since I last smoked weed. Still I think I could think of lists of things more attractive than going to temple while stoned. How about peeing on a fire hydrant?

Ok I am put off by the idea of disrespecting something that others take as sacred. In this case I do not view the temple as sacred for me but knowing it is for others I would stay away whether sober or not.

I would not disrespect the others while high and in the temple.

I would get kicked out for christssakes!

If I was high, I am sure I would find far more meaning in their masonic ripoff.

Do you respect adults who still believe in Santa Claus?

Polygamy, I suspect you are sensible enough to not overtly offend others and get kicked out of the temple. On the other hand I suspect the chances of finding deeper meaning there is similar to the chances of running into Santa Claus.

I do remember a summer job driving harvest at night. The crew passed around a bunch of weed while changing fields. One fellow found himself unable to move sitting in the drivers seat. Crew boss carried him off and dropped him in the back of pickup. I listened to marvelous symphonies played by the light on pea vines. So perhaps if the right weed is found maybe Santa can be found, maybe somebody will be carried away with a smile. And by a long long stretch some enlightenment will be found in temple.... or Naw, I don't actually think the last.

I think you would need something slightly stronger in order to discern the true meaning of the ceremony. :lol:
