Quote by: Kakumei  No they usually marry after the men get off there missions. There are not guidliness on the age of marage, just as long as its moral, and its withing the boundries of the law. We also believe that it is a sin to divorce a spouse in most events, with the acception of there being serious sin, such as Adultery and Murder and all that.
No, they cannot have sex with the previous spouse, as they are no longer bound by marriage.
When it coms to new revealations, at this point we dont get many. For now, it comes down to reignforcing the teachings already known, as we are all liable to forget and become involved in immoral activities and worldly things. "Be in the world, but not of the world" is how its quoted. We have to master what we already know before recieveing the new. ^_^ |
If they do not marry until after their men finish a two year mission (starting at age 19) then they are not busy with babies as you said, at least not their own children. So how come they do not go along with the boys spread the word among others. Most of the Mormon girls are more educated then the men in explaining things, they should be out there doing it also. Why do they have a rule not to train girls for those missions?
If truth is written on the heart you cannot forget, why is that not happening among Mormons?
The Mormon culture is your world, how can you not be of the Mormon world and still be in it? I cannot see how you have seperated your self from worldly religions?
To be "of the world" means that you live by what others tell you to do, rather then by revelations and personal insights. To still be of the world is to be directed by a prophet and/or peer group pressure (to stay in the fold). To not be "of the world" is to think for your self, to quesiton anything that claims authority. Surely you can see that parroting a quote does not always mean you understand the meaning of the quote.
Do I make sense?
