Ugh, we don't need her trying to legitimize how awful LDSinc is without making up stories.

People come here to read truth and only hurts this site when you make up stories or repeat made up stories.

I have been chatting with a woman (gave her full name and the name of the leaders and what ward in Provo) .

I told her I didn't believe it but she insists that she was a polyg wife and she went to church with her DH and the ward knew they were polygamists.

She sounded perfectly normal when she spoke of other areas of her life.

As for the temple they do polygamous sealings all the time, that is no secret. But usually the 1st wife is dead or divorced from the husband. I can say pretty certain that if the 1st wife is still legally married to the husband than they don't do a sealing to another person for that man.

Where the Manti Temple is concerned, I wouldn't be too quick to discount anything.

I forgot.Money can buy anything.
I know what you're saying about Manti. I recently spent a couple of weeks there. I have to say it was quite a culture shock. Several shop keepers filled me in on the polygamy overrun in the last few years. A drive around the local neighborhoods was quite the eye opener. As a mormon who never lived in Utah I was so naive about the polygamy situation in utah.

Are you sure her husband isn't a clever Danite, who came up with this story to discredit you and this board notmo? Or given your evangelical connections, and the fact that you have never been a Mormon, she is probably trying to use your niavete in order to get some speaking fees from your church. Let me guess, she needs money, and is willing to make a public statement for a little help with her rent.

This is the truth -I know from insiders that Jim Harmston's TLC (TRUE AD LIVING CHURCH) which was founded in Manti did perform marriage sealings in the Manti Temple - as one of their "APOSTLES" was a sealer and had the Temple Door Keys..

Also in a missionary effort to reclaim lost souls, some ward members actually accepted some polygamists families as fellowshipping prospects ..

So I had a quiet makeout spot to disappear to prepubescent peter priesthood on mutual nights doesn't mean it was ordained by my bishop much less LDS inc... Also being fellowshipped is a lot different than elders quorum president.

Also I'm not weeping yet...*rolls eyes

I know about the TLC church. I spent some time with Harmston and the Apostles and their families in the late '90s. Good folks.

I went to BYU for 2 years, married an RM and then moved to a podunk little Mormon town in Utah for 10 years. I have probably studied more Mormon primary sources than most of the posters here. I now have a huge TBM family of which there are only a small handful of us who are not Mormon.

So this makes me not qualified to post here?

I wasn't trying to validate this woman's story..just repeating what she said. Other than these claims she was completely lucid and cogent. If you really think my post is a threat to the board then you haven't been here long enough!

She is divorced now and claims that they attended a ward in Provo and that people knew they were polygamists. I told her I didn't believe her whole story either.

BTW...Mr. ForbiddenCokeDrinker...what is your problem with my religious beliefs? Get a life.
