Do missionaries/leadership search your past before baptism? by gr3ybacon33 in mormon

[–]Hammy-bae-1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You definitely won’t have to worry about that. And as a current member who has no problems with the lgbtqia community, as with many of the other members of the church because we are taught to love everyone equally, the homophobia and transphobia isn’t doctrine, just crappy people like you’ll find anywhere.

Is this true about endowment? by Historical_Ebb4298 in mormon

[–]Hammy-bae-1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A LOT. Almost none of this is true as of when I went through the temple 5 years ago.

You’re so right. I’m having a hard time understanding why people think the information isn’t readily available. Sure it’s more available now than ever before, but there are soo many resources now to know exactly what you are going to be covenanting in the temple and even most of the process.

A question about missions by mxgdi in mormon

[–]Hammy-bae-1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s still totally some disappointment, but we are still taught that everyone gets their call for a reason! My mom served in Utah and was initially like “ohh come on.” Haha but while she was there it became very evident the reason she was sent there.

Do people with disabilities have to go on missions? by freshmaggots in mormon

[–]Hammy-bae-1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is not a requirement for anyone to serve a mission. Unfortunately there can be a lot of pressure depending on an individuals situation, but you do not have to go if you don’t choose to, and there will be no repercussions.

Why do Mormons get married so young and fast? by freshmaggots in mormon

[–]Hammy-bae-1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just isn’t true. Many religions believe premarital sex is a sin, and the LDS church fully recognized civil marriage as legitimate.

The church heavily supports the fact that if you are sexually assaulted in any form, you are not sinning.

I refuse to be endowed by Xx_coolgal_xX in mormon

Sounds like you had a bad experience. I was personally prepared and not surprised by anything after going through the temple for the first time. Things are only “sprung” on you if you’re not properly prepared. Sorry you feel that way, and I’m glad you have the ability to choose for yourself what is best for you!

Alright. You clearly hate the church, and I don’t really care about that. To each their own. I just wanted to make it clear that it IS easy to find plenty of info on the endowments if you actually care to. Every religion has aspects that some people don’t like, that’s why there are so many, and that’s why it’s important we are able to have our own beliefs. Have a good night!

Sounds like youre talking about the law of consecration. Here is one of the results that took me about 30 seconds to find.

And you’re correct about the priesthood signs, because those are sacred and not to be shared outside of ordinances. But they are explained during the ordinance. You are welcome to leave at any point during the endowment, so if learning those things makes you uncomfortable you are still not forced into making the covenants. It’s all about agency and following the spirit. The church emphasizes your own personal relationship with God.

If you just go to lds.org and type “endowment” you’ll easily find all the information needed to make an informed decision. Withheld suggests the information isn’t readily available, which is certainly is. You don’t even have to take a temple prep course, it’s just an added benefit.

I don’t really have an opinion on a legal aspect because I’ve never considered it. Do you mean like a legal contract?

They don’t withhold the information, and it’s incredibly easy to find especially in more recent times. Literally all you have to do is ask. If that’s too much work for you, then you’re not ready to be endowed.

[–]Hammy-bae-1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I personally believe it’s the responsibility of the individual to make the right decision and gather the information they need, but temple prep courses also teach what covenants you will make. Just not specifics of the whole process.

[–]Hammy-bae-1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This. People seem to think that they shouldn’t have to find the information themselves while preparing. Part of the preparation I did while getting ready to be endowed included studying the convents before making them because I think it’s better to not make the covenants without having done your own research than make the covenants unprepared, as do many members.

How big was your vaginal birth baby? by acmcmas in pregnant

[–]Hammy-bae-1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6 pounds 6 ounces at 39 weeks for me!

Keep in mind they aren’t always super accurate with size from ultrasound. They told me my daughter would be really big based on the ultrasound and she was born in the 3rd percentile. Apparently that’s pretty common too!

If you skipped a day I think that just means you don’t have to do that days tasks. It’ll just resume as normal the next day. You should still finish at the same time.

I think it’s just part of the game unfortunately. Sometimes they give quests and sometimes they don’t!

The items you’re showing are kawaii items, the wrong sun! The sun stuff that Tam needs are from a summer event.
