Brigham charged $5 for a divorce? Pats Blessings $1

How much does it cost rent the Temple clothes nowadays? Are you supposed to tip?

No dave! That's incorrect. It's 10% tip in form of tithe and 5% in the form of missionary funds. AND it's all voluntary per the bottom of your slip when you John Hancock it up the bishs ass.

I thought is was $10...

needs to be a good essay about 'families first' & LDS divorces, how/what the church does (or Doesn't do) about them; whether/not persons who initiate vicious, deceitful divorces are allow TRs, to re-marry in Temples, chapels.

it is said that BY went against the BoM (3rd Nephi 12) in this regard, Christ's words about divorce, re-marriage.

IF the LDS understood & practiced LOVE (Kindness, Honesty, Caring-Compassion) as they do judgmentalism... relationships & divorces would be almost 180 degrees different from what - where they are today in Morland...

just sayin' (one who KNOWS)

Wondering if BY charged my great-grandfather who was granted a brigham quickie style divorce on the spot, Manti, 1857.

In order that greatgrandma could marry a righteous sperm donor to sire my grandfather, Charles E Richardson and a brother, Sullivan.

Then the knot BY had untied was summarily retied.

Betcha skinflint Brigham charged grandpa fourfold for the little game of musical beds.
