Ann Romney banned her parents from her wedding ceremony.

63. You need to be "eternally" married (not earthly married) to be called to heaven, yes

a woman's fate is determined by the man that is sealed to her, yes or no? yes.

what life she is being called to in heaven, if or to whom she is called by, is not known to her, she could be called as a plurally married, eternally sealed wife among dozens, hundreds of other women and one man (whom she may never have met).

you keep dodging the questions and presenting your faith in a tricky way.

one thing that drove me crazy about the Mormon faith was the most "faithful" of their members (or so they thought) sold their religion through obfuscation.

obfuscation of your religious tenets and theology is not being faithful to your religion (it is what it is --deal with it) and it's not being a good person.

people should be deciding to join or not join your church based on knowing what is involved. i have had friends who left the mormon church say, "I wish they had told me what I was expected to believe before I joined and got further involved." I have been told that they didn't realize that women's roles would be largely home economics and that their spiritual life, dictated by men would largely explain why.

being a good person and a good member of your church means not trying to gloss over these points. they are what they are, the more you try to hide them, the more you appear to be ashamed of them.
