Before discussing, I know there is a general ban on discussing the temple in this forum. However, the church has recently released this:
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/stu ... C_number11
It seems a surprising amount of temple information is now openly shared by the LDS church. At least compared to when I was a member.
In light of this, what restrictions on discussing the temple make sense now?

The rule for this Forum is:
Dr. Shades wrote:No specific temple content allowed
The rule for the Church is:
Temple Ordinances for the Living wrote:Temple covenants and ordinances are sacred. The symbols associated with temple covenants should not be discussed outside the temple. Nor should we discuss the holy information we promise in the temple not to reveal. However, we may discuss the basic purposes and doctrine of temple covenants and ordinances and the spiritual feelings we have in the temple.

The way around any restrictions is to just discuss the Masonic symbols, covenants and ordinances.

That ruse will not fool Shades. He knows describing one ceremony is describing the other. The pledge of non-competition he made to Norton at the Shrine of the Mormon Crickets still stands.

Another work around is to post your temple content in Telestial.

Yep, you can go straight down into the Telestial forum and post all you want about the temple. There are no restrictions so long as it's rated R.
For example, there is
this little gem.

Are you guilty of neglect?

Did you fail to click the link above wherein I mock the Mormon temple rituals down in the Telestial Forum?
Well, don't miss this special inside look inside the temple where
sacred secret rituals are chanted.
It's RATED R:
Inside the Mormon temple! Take a sneak peek!
