It's Wonderific Wednesday, Ya Beatniks! (MyLot Exclusive #1598)

Earlier today, while attending the afternoon service at the sacred bleeding heart of YouTube, located somewhere in Los Angeles, California, and a phone near you, I had a profound and very rare religious experience. I know, some of you have profound religious experiences all the time but for me, they are very rare. Making it even more rare, it had to do with Mormonism. Making it even more rare than that, it was also about weddings. My previous in-depth study of Mormon Marriage consisted of watching "Big Love" ((HBO, 2008-2011)). This video, "Mormon Temple Weddings Explained (Sorry, You're Probably Not Invited), ((Linked Below))" was better because it answered more questions of the type I am most curious about: What happens when we die? And some of the answers appeal to me. The ones that deal with what happens to marriage after death. If you're Mormon, you don't get married "Til death do you part." You get "sealed for the eternities." If you die, you're still married. Not that I'm totally sold on the Mormon beliefs but since no other flavor of Christianity is telling me anything, they are the only game in town. Of course, just like with every other Western tradition and institution, it comes with a very heavy dose of very unfair Misogyny that I don't like or approve of but there's very little I can do about it. If the husband dies, his wife is still married and if she wants to marry again here, she has to go through another ceremony and essentially divorce her husband in Heaven or stay single the rest of her life. From a legal standpoint, mind you, I'm no expert on transdimensional divorce law but I'm not sure how that would work because there can be no "Meeting Of The Minds," at least as far as I can tell, when the two parties reside on two separate and very disconnected planes of existence, so how can they legally agree to do anything, let alone divorce? but the Mormon Bishops say its' totally legal and accepted and if you can't trust a guy who claims to know everything because he was ordained by the Church, who can you trust? It's much easier for men ((#OFCOURSE!)) because if your wife dies, you are free to just marry again as often as you want or as often as necessary if your wives keep dying and when you die, you are still married to all your wives in Heaven ((I'm sure there are some who describe it as Hell but we'll save that topic for another time since this is a positive look at marriage)). As usual, there are still a number of annoying unanswered questions. Like, "Does this system only apply to Mormons?" I'm divorced but does Heaven recognize the divorce? When I die, will I discover that I'm still married? If I marry someone else in the meantime, will I be married to both of them for all eternity? Another interesting thing is the Washing And Anointing part. If I understand it right, the bride has to take a shower with two other women before the wedding ceremony---I've seen dozens of movies with that same basic plot device and I had no idea they were Mormon propaganda films. I also had no idea that so many Only Fans girls are Mormon or are at least Mormon-Curious. With that in mind, let's go back to this afternoon and see what the Cosmic Universal Profound Religious Experience Video Of The Month Club Video For Today is. ************** Mormon Temple Weddings Explained (Sorry, You're Probably Not Invited) Alyssa Grenfell
