Strange Bedfellows: Marriages and Sealings - Rational Faiths | Mormon Blog
rationalfaiths.com
In
becoming a worldwide religion, we Mormons have seen a lot of changes in
church policy. Our doctrine of continuing revelation helps us adapt in
an ever-changing world. So, when it's becoming clear that the harmful
effects of a policy regarding LDS temple weddings and sealings far
outweigh the benefits, AND when that policy is actually NOT applied in
most counties in the world (because it's illegal
in most places), AND when the policy did not even exist before the
1960's (the iconoclastic 1960's can be blamed for all kinds of backlash
and retrenchment), then maybe it's time for some rethinking. This is a
very emotional issue--ask practically any Mormon on the street in the
U.S. or Canada if they wish there were a church-sanctioned way to
include everyone in Mormon weddings. Most of us have a poignant story to
tell.
