Talk:Washing and anointing

I was more than a little surprised to see this much information about washing and anointing, and am more than a little curious as to where this information was obtained. Of late, the sanctity of the temple ordinances has been sabotaged through shoddy attempts of critics to find a way to enter the Lord's houses and obtain information about the initiatory and endowment process. This is severely frowned upon by the leaders of the Church, who have spoken out against it multiple times. Reading this information offends my spirit, as the things that I hold sacred are revealed to anyone happening to visit this page. While, except in a few cases, the exact wording of these sacred ceremonies has been eliminated, there's got to be a way to mention these things without violating the sanctity of such ordinances. The Church, to my knowledge, has never advocated or authorized the inclusion of such information in ANY source by ANY members. Show me a Church-endorsed statement that validates the appropriateness of this page, and I'll be quiet. Otherwise, I have no alternative other than to assume that this page has been put together by an excommunicated member of the Church who no longer appreciates the sanctity of the covenants that were once made, in which case, it shouldn't be included anyways, because the Church has never authorized its former members to release such information in their behalf. I've thought about this for several days, but finally decided to comment on it. Sacred things CANNOT and SHOULD NOT be treated so lightly. Again, if there's a Church endorsed source approving inclusion of this information, I'll be quiet. But I'm sure I'm not the only Church member troubled by this. Perhaps I'm just the first one bold enough to comment on it. --Jgstokes-We can disagree without being disagreeable (talk) 04:17, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
