Certain aspects are not discussed because they are contradictory and they defy logic. If I was creating a contradictory and illogical set of beliefs I would hang a sacred/secret label on it. CYA 101. The Browns want the fame and the money while deciding which parts of their lifestyle can and cannot be discussed. Oooff. You can be sealed for time or sealed for time and all eternity. Were you married multiple successive times? Choose which ones are sealed for time and which one is sealed for time and all eternity. Or, be sealed for eternity to all of them if you are a man; women do not have this option. Surely there is no shortage of duels and catfights in the celestial kingdom. Sealed married couples: if she leaves the earthly marriage, or stays and isn't obedient, or he likes all his other wives better - she's not getting pulled through the veil. Minor children go to dad's planet. Children born to parents whose marriage is already sealed are born in the covenant, no further sealing required. Adopted children or children born before the parents are sealed to each other do require being sealed to the family. Adult sealed-to-family children who never marry or are married and not sealed go to dad's planet. (Sons and daughters). Spinsters will be maids and servants in the afterlife. (This is claimed or denied according to which way the wind is blowing when the clarification is requested, who is asking, and who they ask). Divorced men, unsealed-to-wife men, bachelors and never sealed men (adult converts who never marry) get another shot at marriage(s) on their dad's planet. There is no way for Mariah to marry Audrey and have that union recognized. Mariah can marry Audrey in a civil ceremony but they cannot be sealed and there is no chance of an afterlife for them together. Each will go to her father's planet, if he is a worthy male who gets a planet. Adult sons get their own planets if they are worthy; worthy varies according to which teachings are in place when you die (1860 differs from 1960, 1960 differs from today) and which branch, limb or twig of the church you belong to. Prime example: the expiration of the three-wife minimum required for exaltation. Being in arrears with before-taxes tithing (10% of gross income) is, always has been, and always will be a worthy-breaker; no worthy, no temple - can't get married, sealed, unsealed there, can't perform or receive temple ordinances (can't initiate newly worthy or reinstated members, can't baptize the dead by proxy. etc). Payment plans available upon request. (I've seen them). This planet called Earth belongs to a god who once was a worthy man and all humans born since the beginning are his results. People who are not members of any aspect of mormonism exercised free will and rejected it or were never exposed to it during their lifetime; they are SOL in terms of eternal salvation. But everyone gets a second chance so you are baptized by proxy after you die and they will gladly tell you that your soul is freeeeee to reject it. Proxy baptisms are supposed to be limited to your own family line but there are hordes of volunteers all over the world who gather local newspaper obituaries for submission to headquarters. I've seen them doing it, they told me they were doing it, they asked me to mail the big weekly manila envelopes for them when I delivered Meals On Wheels and when I was a home hospice CNA. Anne Frank, Martin Luther King, JFK, RFK and countless others have been baptized even tho their chosen religion was a matter of public record. I shit you not. So, really, it's not that complicated.

A comment accompanying that Washington Post article: But, she's like the landlords who are turning him down - no one wants the liability of knowingly sponsoring a potential criminal haven/crime scene.

And someday, pics of psoriasis on her tits. What is this shit about "finally considering prescription medication?" The holiest of holy temples is afflicted and she relies on, what, orris root? Apple cider vinegar? Eye of newt and toe of frog?

She's an idiot. The actual quote comes from a telegram Marilyn sent to RFK at his home in Virginia 6 weeks before she died. Telegrams are all caps and lack punctuation but ... Dear Attorney General and Mrs Robert Kennedy: I would have been delighted to have accepted your invitation honoring Pat and Peter Lawford. Unfortunately, I am involved in a Freedom Ride protesting the loss of the minority rights belonging to the few remaining earth-bound stars. After all, all we demanded was our right to twinkle. (I'm a huge Marilyn Monroe fan).

It serves a greater good when someone here posts an entire article or enough excerpts to clue us in because hundreds of us get the info and they only get one click.

It's usually related to self-esteem. Being overly shy, being socially awkward, wanting to blend in and not stand out or be noticed, not having rhythm, fear of failure and not measuring up to others, etc. For some people dancing in public is almost like going naked in public and in their minds both are rated equally as difficult. We don't expect anyone to walk around nude but we expect everyone to dance.

I see A Lot of blue in this photo, mostly solid blue. Christine, mother of the bride, wore green to complement both kilts but also stand out while staying within the theme. Those who wore floral prints stayed with blue. Which immediate family member wore a dress with an ugly Silly String print that didn't include blue? Which adult sister didn't wear blue?

Which person does not "belong" in this photo? Which mother is not wearing solid green or solid blue to complement the colors in the two kilts? Which mother's dress is fighting the intended image? Which mother ruined the theme of this family photo?

You wondered if the cake-tasting was filmed, yes, but I don't remember which episode. It was discussed here, of course. 😉

Did we notice Robyn's now-you-see-it-now-you-don't camel toe in the leggings she wore while they were trying on their fascinators? She also wore skin tight jeggings with a short top during the couch convos. "Our belief in modesty" is a thing of the past with that one. Meri also. Tunics, ladies, tunics - the whole world wears them with bottoms so tight we can see every little detail of lady fronts and lady butts.

I have a long dresser in my bedroom that has three top drawers and it's right next to a TV and an armoire-type computer desk with a comfy chair in front of it. Before I grab a load from the dryer in my "little nothing" laundry room I open those top dresser drawers; the load I fetch goes "on" one drawer and I use the other two for folding and stacking, while seated in my comfy chair. This system is especially enjoyable when it coincides with a laundry room/laundry folding mention while I'm watching this show.

I thought it was ignernt (Utah-ese for ignorant) for four-wives-Kody to say to Mitch "Hey, you know how you start to look like who you love?" (The point being that Kody sees more red in Aspyn's hair now that she's marrying a ginger). Further along the miracle scale ... pretty amazing that their god has the time to listen to and the inclination to grant Robyn's prayers re finding a house with enough/more than enough bathrooms to satisfy her material desires. Which evidently demonstrates that their god doesn't have very much on his plate.

And, unlike bridesmaids who usually hate what they're forced to wear so the gowns are never seen again, those little gals will happily wear their dresses until they outgrow them and pass them down to younger relatives/friends.

Mormon Standard Time: arriving 20-30 minutes late translates as being punctual. They should have had their hats at least a couple of weeks before the wedding, which is how fully formed adults with as much advance notice as they had get things done in the real world. Harrumph.

Aspyn said she practiced dancing for a month and a half. She needed another month, she looked stiff and awkward.

If Hannah came with a dowry Kody would snap her up in a Flagstaff minute.

IIRC she passed on having bridesmaids.

Always.

The hypocrisy of the immodesty of her gown is staggering. The only thing mormon-y about this bunch is that there are multiple wives.

The Kody Kilt Posing. Dying here. ROFLMFAO

She thought to mislead them as to the time she would be beginning her march because they are chronically late and disorganized. And it can't even be blamed on drugs/alcohol or mental illness. Sigh.

Oooh, in his voiceover, Mitch burned Daddy-O for his tacky and unnecessary comment re the marital bed. Here come the commando references. His kilt is much too tight ... aaand he just bent over and flashed us his tighty blackies.

After all these years, Kody is fronting like his curl is natural? LMAO. Robyn taught him how to scrunch his perm.

Typical oldest sister behavior. Too often, and especially in large families, they are used as little mothers. *raises hand* There's a whole psychology to birth order and how it plays out in friendships, marriages, careers, etc.
