I am sorry to bring such a heinous topic (mormons) into saved company, but I was speaking with a former Mormon this week, and he says that in their "faith", men are incarnations (or something) of God, as they were created first in His image, and there's something about them all being "sealed" together as a brotherhood. The purpose, to them, of their women (who are lesser beings) marrying men is to spiritually seal these females to the males, to save them.
So "sealing" one Mormon male to another would only be somewhat redundant to them, not an actual sin. And there is writing about this from the notebooks of the founder, stored in the hillsides of Utah, along with everything else he was supposedly told by God. At a certain point, certain men who have reached seniority are allowed to go look at the original notes. They are not allowed to copy anything down, just to study it.
Well...the big gossip is that over the years, some "holy" men who have been allowed to study these original teachings then LEFT the Mormon church, one by one, and started relationships with men. One of them wrote a book about what he saw, but about a third of the manuscript was finally suppressed by the Mormon Church and kept out of print.
It's all a big mess.
PS: Other gossip is that at the time the Mormon Church formed, there were many documented cases of people hallucinating from eating poorly stored grain. So these original "visions" and "visitations" of the founding father were actually nothing more than a Bad Trip, as the kids say nowadays.
