Too sad for me.
I missed all my childrens' wedding ceremonies.

They have all gone inactive after contemplating the mean-spirited 15 white shirts, excluding their parent from the ceremony.

No more of their tithing for you, Rusty!
Too late!

Just like Cola, slacking off on the "at home" churching on Sundays, and getting a civil hitching before going to the temple, this means one thing - more self righteous Mormons will be produced.

This is actually a good thing for offending people out of the church.

They are trying to make "higher law" Mormons and all the others...

Next up...Second Anointing for all.

Okay I get what you mean by “self-righteous.”
“They who have no civil ceremony, are holier than righteous!”

Now, they need to bulldoze a center aisle in each chapel, and have the bridal procession and the couple kneeling at the altar in the MEETINGHOUSE!

Then, charge a nominal $500 for the reception hall.
Start a church catering business (or have a select few hand-picked Mormon Royalty businesses) to provide the food and entertainment!

Hey, that is a new business model!

That's just another stupid "revelation".

It means couples will be married civilly and whisked off to the temple right away, thus eliminating the usual European wedding festivities.

In other words, their families still can't attend.

It's possible that more than a few brides and their moms will take it in another direction here in North America.

Hmm....
I fear people are are misinterpreting this.

It only says that civilly married people do not have to wait the heretofore customary year before being temple married.

It does NOT say "unworthy" family can attend the temple sealing.

Do the right thing "Brethren" and take it just one step further:

REQUIRE a Civil Ceremony BEFORE any couple can enter the temple for their stupid worthless "sealing".

Now that would put you on the map of compassionate humanity...something that is completely foreign to you "Brethren".

Or so it seems to me...
