I'm not so sure. I had never heard of this Temple ritual, but they are supposed to be secret (sacred). I'm wondering. If this was publicized and promoted by the LDS media professionals, could it draw in more converts?

This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

How could you even try to keep track of all the bouncing bits? You'd get dizzy trying to keep up.

The trick is to concentrate on just two (or one if that's your preference).

A friend of mine mock-accused me the other day of belonging to a religious cult.
I told him I was offended by the word "religious."
