Are you aware of what the term "memory hole" means and where it comes from?


All you've done here is prove the nondoctrinicity of the OP.

Thanks for the CFR which shows that the OP portion in question is not doctrine.

Hoping I would catch what? I am not seriously invested in this thread.


That's okay. Joseph doesn;t seem to be very invested either. Or Buffalo. Just looking for evidence of doctrine in the original claim. None found so far.


As usual, the point flies over your head while you drone on about your legalistic hobby horse.

Two below, which is accurate?
******************************
A question may be asked—“Will mothers have their children in eternity?” Yes! Yes! Mothers, you shall have your children; for they shall have eternal life, for their debt is paid. There is no damnation awaiting them for they are in the spirit. But as the child dies, so shall it rise from the dead, and be for ever living in the learning of God. It will never grow [in the grave]; it will still be the child, in the same precise form [when it rises] as it appeared before it died out of its mother’s arms, but possessing all the intelligence of a God. …

From the Ensign.

Children dwell in the mansions of glory and exercise power, but appear in the same form as when on earth. Eternity is full of thrones, upon which dwell thousands of children, reigning on thrones of glory, with not one cubit added to their stature.

I put in bold the part missing from the Ensign article.
