LDS is a cult and these “rites” are all meaningless. The dead belong to the God Who made them, and He shall judge where and how they will spend eternity.

Another example of how mormonism still practices polygamy.

Expect more articles like this inthe mainstream meadia should mittens be given the nod.

The Liberal Rally cry will be:

“Obama 2012, cause Romney’s religion is weird....”
(and Dems can denigrate religion because they are “tolerant” )

How can it be binding when neither "bride" or "groom" can be present to say their I Do's?

You’d have to be insane to worry about something like this.

Not disagreeing, but we do have religious freedom, those things Mormons do and teach are religion just like some other Church doctrines that are known of.

Never mind that it is not truth, the first amendment protects freedom of religion and take that away and we would be cutting our own throats as we would not be able to preach the Gospel because the Gospel has been equated with religion.

And up until the time when people wake up and realize that religion may or may not have anything to do with Jesus ( the son of God ) and his Gospel we are going to need to defend freedom of religion, because there is no such amendment that protect the freedom of truth which can only come from the gospel of Jesus.

You are probably a smart man. Too bad your hate for Mormons keeps you from working for something that really counts, such as the defeat of Obama.

What's interesting is that these stories are now showing up in Left media like Slate. As soon as Romney becomes a certainty, I would expect these stores to then go into the MSM broadcast branch. Will reporters then be raising these issues with Romney on the trail? All these people breathing a sigh of relief that Santorum with his supposed extreme views on JFK etc. is no longer a possibility may be in for rude awakening.

Church doctrine teaches that marriages performed within LDS temples “seal” husband and wife together not only for mortality but for eternity.

If that is true I guess I'll have to convert. I was widowed, as was my current wife. If I'm still married to my late wife, I'd better change to Mormanism so I'll be allowed to have multiple wives.

Whether it’s true or not, this is the garbage we will have to put up with in the fall if Romney is the nominee. How do you begin to defend against this kind of thing? This line of attacks will chop Romney down another 10 points by November. I will definitely vote for Mitt come Election Day, but I am not happy about having to defend religious weirdness.

I suppose I could argue that Mitt grew up in it, he’s a person of deep loyalty, etc., ......help!

I don’t understand why anyone even worries about this.

It is just a bunch of mumbo-jumbo. It does nothing, It means nothing.

So why worry who they claim to “baptize” or who they claim to “wed” (or whatever they call it) ?????

Why should I worry about what a bunch of people say when their “religion” is based on the words of some charlatan who was quite literally talking out of his hat?

They are only hurting themselves.

I am not sure why these anti Mormon gentiles worry about such things.

If the LDS church is right about heaven, then the slaves can chose if they want to be sealed into the guy’s family after they die, not as a slave but as a full fledged member of his family, equal to the others in the family.

And if the LDS church is wrong, then no harm done.
