Big Love and the Temple Ceremony




Mormon Miscellaneous Worldwide Talk Show show

Summary:     Big Love and the Temple Ceremony Please be advised that this is a sensitive topic for LDS. Big Love is an HBO fictional series about a non-LDS group which subscribes to, and practices, their interpretation of Mormon polygamy of the 19th century. In the 15 March 2009 episode a false allegation is made about a commitment made, prior to 1990, by LDS participants in the LDS temple ceremony. I discuss this and several other false allegations about the temple ceremony found in a number of anti-Mormon books, pamphlets and articles. These topics include: blood oaths, an oath of vengeance, a lecture and human executions. Topics raised by callers: Alleged blood oath Creation accounts in Genesis Alleged lecture at the veil in the St George Temple 22 March 2009 Episode
