I am new here. I am on way out and I want to add something I find disturbing.
One of my friends' brother got divorced. He got laid off from his work. He has no means to support himself or his ex in this lousy economy. Like it was his fault. He ended up living with his own brother which was my friend.
Now here is the irony. The bishop cannot give him a temple recommend because he was not supporting his family via "alimony". If he could he would. The member appealed that he did nothing wrong, but according to the letter of the law, he is not to have a temple recommend until he can support his family.
So the church can determine someone to be worthy or not to the letter despite the person's inability to do anything. How weird is that?
