    What a great episode! Thank you for talking about the 3 degrees *within* the CK. I’ve so rarely heard members discuss that, and have gotten into heated disagreements about the topic in the past.

    I will be so sad to see this project end. <3

    Thank you for this. I found this incredibly painful to listen to, especially the part where Elder Nelson talks about celestial marriage compared to the rest of marriages. I am a convert and I was married in the temple. Years later, I am embarrassed that I let a religion talk me into a wedding that would exclude my entire family. I mourn for the wedding ceremony I could have had if I had married in a public ceremony.

    Lindsey, thank you so much for this. I just found this podcast and I do love it. I’ve been lds my whole life,I am only 19 years old and preparing to serve a mission in just a month. My entire familyisn’t Mormon anymore. It seems they study the history and they fall away. I was wondering why. when I went through the temple for my endowment I bawled afterwards, and not out of happiness. I could see the sexist undertones and they hurt me. I love that you aren’t afraid to bring this disscusionn out in the open and reveal the truth that had never been told to me. I think all of us should know the truth and the whole truth. It is a deep unconscious fear in every Mormon and I think it would do us good to bring it out and finally deal with it. Ignoring it doesn’t help. I just wanted to say thank you. For a while I believed that God rally did think his sons were more important than his daughters, but I realize that that’s not the godI know. I know that he loves me. I haven’t lost my faith. I wad just wondering are you still lds? How had studying this affected your faith?

    I came to a different conclusion about section 132 but now I understand that I was only partially correct. You’re able to state the problem in a much nicer way that I can. I now understand how polygamy affected my entire life — and I’ve never even been married.

    Is this the episode that references a book discussing the endowment as it evolves through history? I’m having a hard time finding the name of that book. It sounds so interesting! I love this podcast and I’m listening to it for the second time. I’ve also recommended it to many people. ❤️❤️❤️

    My wife and i felt glad that Louis managed to complete his inquiry from the ideas he received while using the blog. It’s not at all simplistic just to find yourself making a gift of solutions other people have been trying to sell. And now we acknowledge we have the blog owner to thank because of that. The entire illustrations you made, the easy web site menu, the relationships your site make it easier to create – it’s many remarkable, and it is letting our son and the family know that this concept is fun, which is truly mandatory. Thank you for all the pieces!
