I think they still get naked for dead dunking.

And when they're changing into or out of temple garb. It's the naked feel-ups that are gone.

Where is the actual article?

I don't believe analyzing the practices of the Mormon church in obtuse academic language promotes usefulunderstanding.

Re: Mormons don't get nekkid in the Temple anymore.

Thank goodness. I was quite traumatized by the washing and anointing. I was one of those kids that would not change or shower in a gym if anyone was around. I was really upset at my parents for not giving me a warning. That was the first time I really questioned the church.
