And you think responses you read on an anonymous forum are going to be accurate?

Is this for a class? If so, do you think that your professor is going to accept this?

Why not just look up what the Mormons believe regarding end of life? I'm sure they have some web sites that would explain it.

you could also call a Mormon Temple and ask - they are not closed off from the world

I don't believe this is the most advantageous method of researching end-of-life practices in the Mormon Church.

I know there are practices regarding garments, for example... but in general I find the LDS Church to be very receptive to all questions regarding their faith.

I'm a Mormon. What exactly are you trying to write about? End of life practices. Do you mean what we believe after death?

This is where the main LDS website will help you out immensely. You can search around on there, and if it doesn't have all the information you need, missionaries are also available to answer questions online.

Lds.org if you wish to read about any beliefs. I'm around if you wish to have any questions answered as well. I don't usually trust Google, a lot of Mormon misinformation or people Mormon shaming posting on blogs and such. Best to only ask and take accurate information from them. In my experience. People come up with weird things lol

Same thing happens to me as a Jehovah's Witness. I once had someone on this site argue with me over which website is the official site for our faith. Uhm...doncha think I would know which one was the official one?

But I digress...

Seriously, you are asking an online, non-accountable bunch of folks to provide FACTS for a research paper?

You must be a very new, naive student. And I'm not trying to offend you. Anyone here can answer you and may be masquerading as someone who is qualified to speak to your question. You have NO WAY of gauging the authenticity or veracity of any response.

This is not research.
