even if they as a couple are both concidered gods there are still the other three points that have no other explanation then sexism.

[sexism as in it's traditional definition: attitudes or behavior based on traditional stereotypes of sexual roles and/or discrimination or devaluation based on a person's sex, as in restricted job opportunities (or restricted privlages and blessings in this case)]

I think that settleing the first point took care of the other three.

They're not reading the Book of Mormon. Polygamy is clearly an Abomination. And if it's practiced in the CK, I'm not going there.

I feel sorry for that letter writer having to face his ward and probably stake leaders this Sunday.

- Men get as many women as they like
True polygamy does not work this way. Do you think that an abusive masochist is going to receive any type of exaltation?

- Women cannot live with god, REGARDLESS of the life they lived, unless they are seal to A man.
Thast because if you are going to dwell with God you have to live the life God lives. God is a creator and organizer, and that involves the creation of children (hence the title of Father) and that involves beign married.

- Men are the ones who have the "power" to heal, not women
That is incorrect.


- Men will be a God
not without a woman.

Do you believe a lying, manipulating, thieving deceiver will receive any type of exaltation?

Actually, women can live with God without a man. Just be content with being a ministering angel.

To what are you referring, Gaz? Because I don't see you ever acknowledging that women have any kind of power at all.

A submissive woman, not an equal. Man doesn't enter the CK arm in arm with his wife. He enters at the head of a line of women with their heads bowed.
