Based on anecdotal evidence and myriad pictures on Facebook, I'm seeing a huge upswing in people following the Joseph Smith pattern of wearing garments - when it suits them, but certainly not in the hot summer.

Good, because if it was too crowded, it wouldn't be call the Celestial Kingdom.Originally posted by Pheidippides View PostGive 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

Crowded? I think you're going to have a lot of real estate with few takers, at this rate.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post

In the CK we will all be naked and not ashamed. You can have your bikinis.Originally posted by Mrs. Funk View Post"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes.

So the cost of eternal nakedness is a mortal existence of ill-fitting underwear? I'll take the bikinis. I hear it's hot where I'm headed anyway.Originally posted by Moliere View Post"You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad JudgeComment

OK - I don't really believe that. Personally, I'm not way invested one way or the other. I can wear what I've got, but won't complain if they make improvements and/or something better comes along.Comment

Actually, they will have bikinis in hell but you won't be able to take them off, which obviously explains the doctrine that says that those in the CK will have multitudes of spirit children.Originally posted by Eddie View Post"Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

We'll have fruity drinks and pool floaties at least. And a bikini I can't take off apparently.Originally posted by RC Vikings View Post"You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad JudgeComment

I'm good with that. Sounds like an upgrade from this life. We get drinks with a kick in them and I'm rarely surrounded by women in bikinis, which I can't take off anyway, so this way we are around a lot of women that were a little wild during their life in bikinis with a perfected body.Originally posted by Mrs. Funk View PostComment

So Mormon Expositor has a new podcast on mormons in the military. They talk about the issue of garements in armed services and one guy says that he used to send in his troop shirts to have the garment simbols silk screen onto the inside of the shirts. He said that some of these shirts had dragons on the back with the words like "Kill" and other military slogans.
I realize that these are exceptions to the rule, but it makes you wonder what are the essential parts of a garment? If it is just the symbols then why not allow people to have a broader array of underwear choices?"Friendship is the grand fundamental principle of Mormonism" - Joseph Smith Jr.Comment
