Become Eunuchs in Afterlife???

Post by _moksha »

Hey what is this about folks in the Telestial/Terrestrial Kingdoms becoming eunuchs? Or smoothies as one bishop put it (TK Smoothies).

Regardless of some leaders believing this, is it really Church doctrine?

Here is the link that spurred my interest: http://mormonmatters.org/2009/04/27/are ... #more-5023

So our "equipment" will only be needed for going to the bathroom?

I don't know that resurrected bodies create waste. I guess its possible, but I doubt it. Another mystery to look forward to solving I suppose, lol

My understanding is that angelic resurrected men will not get erections.

What about the animal kingdom? Are they split up in various kingdoms too or do they all reproduce in the resurrection?

I never get attribution. Especailly from the LDS even though they love to stand in my shadow and give out like they got a spiritual brain.

If you do not have eternal life that involves the continuation of the seeds there is no need for sexual differenciation in the next life. You rise in the resurrection with a nonspecific nub between your thighs. No boobs for the not eternal life women either. There is a solid deeper doctrine that supports this but you guys do not deserve to know it.

I am going to have to think about how much of the animals and plants are allowed to continue. There is no criteria of sin or covenant possible. It might be gauged upon visciousness. I would think that most would be glad to go back into the light with the prospect of being called out to a higher order of life next time.

Is lacking any reproductive capacity or desire a compensation for the newly perfected females going to the Celestial Kingdom, so that there may be an increase in available sister-wives, and also to act as a preventative for gay behavior when the women depart?

You mean like entering as a warthog and leaving as a Brahman?
