So I’m guessing the Mormonism you grew up with didn’t limit eternal families to the celestial kingdom.
Good grief.
What does an eternal family consist of? How would an eternal family differ from say, your Uncle Ted and Aunt Martha who celebrated their 50th Anniversary, more in love than the day they were married…but they were Jewish…and they died without the gospel. They go to the Spirit World and aren’t too keen on being joint heirs with Christ. So, what becomes of their relationship? What do you think? How will it be different for them compared to a righteous LDS couple, married in the temple, with their marriage ratified by the Holy Spirit of Promise?
MG remains exhausting, once more pretending the Mormonism you and I grew up with is suddenly super- inclusive.
Tally-Ho!
The version of Mormonism he is pedaling is unrecognizable from the church I grew up in, served a mission for, gave many years of my life to...
I am at a loss. Can you clue me in on how my upbringing and experience in the church was much off the beaten path. Granted, as I’ve said, I grew up in a home with a PhD dad (neuroscience), and Sunstone/Dialogue freely available around the house. And believe it or not, I read them both fairly regularly as a lad. If that’s too much for your sensitivities, then oh well.
Church every Sunday almost without fail. Seminary. Institute. Mission. BYU. High Councilor. Elder’s Quorum President. The whole nine yards.
I’ve been around the block more than a few times. Maybe more than some here.

I’m aware he settled a real estate dispute when a Catholic friar who was, I think, being swindled asked him to intervene, which he did. That was with regard to to the property on South Temple, I believe. Would you mind providing a credible source with regard to to him ‘helping the Catholics build their church’ in SLC? I’m interested in reading the account.

The LDS Church president sided with the priest and even offered, according to a contemporary newspaper account, to donate $500 for a school and church planned for the site.

That’s what I often think when people here describe what they think Mormonism is.
