It has to do with Ceremonies that can only be performed in the Temple.\n\nSome examples are Marriage for all eternity. (Something mormons believe in)\n\nThey also believe in performing work for the dead.  What this means is if someone died before being baptised or married for all eternity, for example then other people can do this for them by proxy. \n\nFor the mormons these ceremonies are sacred, so much so that they won't talk about them. Because of this people get the false impression that there is something very secretive or wierd about them. This is not the case.\n\nI used to be a mormon and went to all of the temple ceremonies, and I was even a temple worker (person who volunteers to work at the temple).  \n\nI will tell you that none of the ceremonies are wierd, or anything you might not expect. Most of the stuff found on the internet is exagerated hyped up or just plain in-correct.\n\nIf you have any further questions go to www.lds.org

I am not going to read such an absurd theory. But come on, has he done any research to see if such a huge body of water in that area of the world can freeze over?? Has he even read the story?? Most bible historians believe that it was the Sea of Galilee where this happened which is a HUGE body of water! The story also states that a huge storm occured during this , so wouldnt the hugh waves during the storm,pretty much break up all the frozen water?? Just another antheist trying to gain some ground for Satan!

A friend of mine got married. She is Mormon. I am not. I could not come to the ceremony. THAT was hard for me to accept...why would a church exclude people from its walls? Exclude people from such an important ceremony. It kinda hurt...and that was like 20 yrs ago too.

I am a mormon. And have answered your qwestions before. All im saying are facts. Baptisms for the dead is an ordinance in the temple. People are baptized in place of one who has passed away. The Aaronic and Melchezedick (dont know how to spell it) priesthood. We do not do evil things. Families are sealed for time and all eternity in the temple. You can contact the Mormon missionaries and ask questions\nTemples are houses of the Lord, the most sacred structures on the earth. \nAnciently, the Lord directed Solomon to build a temple (1 Chronicles 28:1–6). After Jesus Christ restored His Church through Joseph Smith, He again directed that temples be built. \n\nIn temples, Church members participate in ordinances designed to unite their families together forever and help them return to God. This next part is from www.mormon.org\n\nIn the temple, members: \n\nLearn eternal truths. \nReceive sacred ordinances, including those that bind husband and wife together for eternity, as well as join children and parents (Malachi 4:5–6). \nProvide ordinances such as baptism for those who have died without the opportunity to receive the gospel of Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:29); 1 Peter 4:6) \n\nThis part is more on baptisms for the dead.\nMany people have died without receiving baptism and other ordinances that Jesus Christ taught were necessary to enter the kingdom of God (John 3:5). Because Heavenly Father wants all His children to have the opportunity to return to Him, He has provided a way for those who have died without these ordinances to receive them. \nIn holy temples, members of the Church can perform these ordinances on behalf of their ancestors who have died. \n\nThis makes it possible for those who have not received these ordinances to accept them, if they choose, and return to live one day with our Heavenly Father. \n\nThis part is on marraige and eternal marraige.\nWhen a man and woman are married in a temple, their family can be together forever. This is a common goal of Latter-day Saints. However, this is not always possible. One of the marriage partners may not be a member of the Church or may not be prepared to go to the temple. Some people never have the opportunity to marry. \nChurch members who have been divorced, who have never married, or who have been married outside the temple can participate in the ordinances of the gospel and enjoy opportunities for Church service. \n\nThe knowledge that a family can be together forever helps strengthen families—not only those who have been bound together through temple ordinances, but also those who hope to realize that blessing in the future. \n\nThe Savior promised that certain sacred acts performed in this life would be effective in the world to come. Consider His words to Peter: “And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matthew 16:19). \nWhen a marriage is performed by the proper authority, in the holy temple, it can last through eternity, rather than “till death do you part.” \n\nYour marriage and family do not need to end at death. This promise can give you a sense of eternal belonging and eternal commitment.

I am a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints. Better known as Mormon. We believe in God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost. They are 3 separate beings. We believe that Jesus was sent to suffer for our sins. We also believe that after he died he came to visit the Americas. That is what the Book Of Mormon is all about is Jesus coming to the American continents after he died.If you want a copy of the Book of Mormon I will send you one free of charge. jgeddes01@yahoo.com (just give me your address)  We believe that God and Jesus both speak to Prophets on earth today. True Mormons are not those people down in Utah Practicing polygamy. They are the ones making us look bad.

Go ask the Mormons they will hook you up with a great false teaching about degrees of heaven. You can't be a little sinful. Like you can't be a pregnant. You are  in sin or you aren't  No unclean thing can enter the Kingdom of God.. One little patch of filth makes you dirty..  Jim

The famed Mormon Tabernacle Choir and the Brigham Young University Choir perform there during the General Conferences held in April and October. There is nothing mysterious about it except for the excellence of the massive organ and the pipes in gold cast at the front of the immense room.\n\nThe acoustics are so refined that a pin can be heard dropped from the front and heard at the back. The tabernacle had just gone through a reconstruction that reinforces the structure.\n\nThe tabernacle is not the temple and vice-versa.

In Mormon theology, the eight year old and all of those who have responded to this and every other question on Yahoo!Answers would not go to hell.  Mormons don't believe in hell.  Almost all are elevated to degrees of heavenly glory, whether to the terrestial, telestial or celestial kingdoms. (Mormon lore would have it that if you could see the terrestial kingdom, you'd kill yourself to get there because it is so much better than the hell-hole we call earth.)\n\nReally, the closest thing I have been able to come up with as a Mormon version of hell is the inability to progess between kingdoms after death.  It is like this life is where you get your seeding for the March Madness of Eternity (That was a basketball reference) and you don't want to go into eternity as a 16 seed, because you'll never make it out of the first round.\n\nNow, Orson Pratt and Brigham Young fought about eternal progression and Brigham, being the prophet and seer at the time won.  See the website below for more info.  My own personal feeling is that Brigham wanted eternal progression to halt for one reason --  he was stuck in a deseret with a bunch of people and no hell fire and damnation to control them, other than a few Dan-ites.  I'm sure Brigham thought, "I have a theology that some believe gives you all eternity to get it right, where is the urgency and the control that comes with people urgently striving for salvation?"  Thus, cirumscribe the progression between the kingdoms and you regain control.  \n\nThe next theological question is if the lowest kingdom is so cool, people still might not care sufficiently about their eternal salvation and that is answered by what you get to do in the highest kingdom -- procreate.  You can't do that in the two lower kingdoms.  Your eternal sex life is at stake if you screw it up on this earth.  This is what gives the Mormon church such control over its life long and hard won male members, it has them by the proverbial and eternal balls.  It is enough to make the Muslims and their views of paradisiacal harems to nod their heads in theological awe.\n\nSo in answer to your question, the eight year old probably didn't have time to commit enough sin to not sneak into the South Pole of the Celestial Kingdom where he will then have an eternity to work his way through an eternal pubescence, until he reaches full rigidity of his Melchizedek priesthood.\n\nI'm pretty certain that is how Mormon theology views it.

I've had mormon friends married by their bishop outdoors, in homes and at other non-church venues.  Bishops are authorized to perform marriages just like clergymen from other churches.  A non-temple wedding could be whatever the couple agrees on & the bishop agrees to conduct.  The only difference is that you won't be sealed like you would in a temple.  But you can always do that later on. Hope this helps.

Mormons believe that the "true" religion of christ was lost from the earth shortly after christ died.  This "true" christianity was then restored through their first prophet, Joseph Smith, in 1830 when god and jesus appeared to him and told him he had been chosen to restore the true church to the earth.  He also was visited by Moroni, supposedly a prophet from a lost race of ancient americans, who told him where to find golden plates on which was written the spiritual history of his people, similar to the bible but with all of the events taking place in ancient America.  The book he "translated" from these plates became the book of Mormon (Mormon was one of the ancient American prophets), and tells their history as well as the story of Jesus visiting the faithful in America after his resurrection.\nThey believe "as man now is, god once was...and as god now is, man may become" -- meaning that god was once a guy on a planet like us, he did good, achieved eternal life, and was given this earth to rule.  They believe that each of us can do the same, after our lives are over if we're righteous we can get our own world to create/rule over, populate with spirit children, etc.  You get to be a god!\nThey have secret rituals that are done in their temples that are derivatives of Masonic rituals, secret underwear that reminds them of the rituals done in the temples and which are supposed to protect them from harm, still hold plural marriage (polygamy) as a tenet of their religion although it's currently not practiced officially by church members.  They are adamant about collecting 10% tithing (you have to "settle" with your local church every year, showing your tax return and proving you paid your 10% to be considered a faithful member).  They're big on missionary work and getting new members, sending thousands of missionaries to every country in the world they can every year.  They believe they can do "sacraments" (baptism, temple marriages, etc.) for their relatives who have passed away and never had a chance to join the Mormon church, which will give them the chance to accept it in the afterlife.  There are other differences, but that's the gist of it :)\n\nI'm a former Mormon who did a 2-year missionary stint, and know the temple routines very well.  Send me an e-mail or IM if you want to know more.

I left the LDS (Mormon) church several years ago.  There are special undergarments that devout members wear.  After my husband and I received our "endowments" (going through a "sacred/secret" ceremony in their temple), we were required to wear the garments.  They are white and two pieces - a top and a bottom.  They come in different fabrics from satin-like to cotton.  The men's garments are basically a white undershirt and white boxer shorts - no big deal, right?!  The women's however, was like wearing big granny underwear down to your knees and always having an extra layer on top.  That's fine in the winter, but not so comfy in the hot summer weather!\n\nOn the tops and bottoms there are different markings sewn into the garments.  They correlate with markings and symbols found in the temple.  And yes, they are the same as some Masonic symbols.\n\nThe purpose of the garments are to remind you to keep the covenants you made in the temple ceremony.  They're supposedly a kind of protection, as well.  Whenever garments wear out, you're supposed to cut the symbols off before you throw them out.\n\nYou can only buy garments from the store at the temple or through the lds website.  You  have to have a number from a "temple recommend" to order them, though.

There is a La Nina condition contributing to this.  Since it is cold down there, it has to be warmer somewhere else. But the main factor is the Jet Stream. The cold you should be under is currently pummeling the USA.  If you are in Eastern Canada, you are probably getting warm air from the east.  But western Canada appears to be warmest, BC. You must have an indoor heated pool, though.\n\nI just posted a blog that contains a URL for Canadians to click.  This explains the El Nino Southern Oscillation fallouts for CANADA.  You are supposed to be cold.\n\nWhen you get to this short blog, just scroll down to where you see CANADA ir red:\n\nhttp://360.yahoo.com/ki_te_moana\n\nWe are living in a period when all things will alter.
