Hawkgrrrl – Good point, and one usually overlooked. The typically-represented personages of celestial origin tend to be rather limited in clothing choice. I’m hoping that this is only a result of our projection of what we’d imagine it to be, and not a hard-fast rule. Perhaps, like our current GA’s, there a dress code of only-white full-length toga-type apparel for the bosses. But, hopefully they’ll leave the commoners to their own devices in clothing and facial hair (male only) preferences.

I’m not sure age is as important to me as things like hairstyle and clothing. What if we have to have buzz cuts (both men and women)? What if we all have to wear a “celestial mullet”? What if we are all wearing elastic-waist capris (and man-pris)? Or zip-front jumpsuits?

children will be resurrected at the same age at which they died, else how will mothers raise them to maturity? (The Jews considered someone matured when they reached the age of 30, which is why Christ waited until then to begin his ministry. Since age is “accounted unto man only”, it would appear that we’ll all be pretty much the same age, since the natural tendency of things in the hereafter is to remain in good shape, not deteriorate and fall apart (that’s called death). Remember, the body and spirit are “inseperably connected, and “cannot die”.

I just wanted to say that you are channeling Kirby – and there isn’t a better Mormon satirist alive. Hilarious post.

I’m totally planning to stay 25,000 for eternity, once I reach it. Old enough to know what’s what, but young enough to be able to do something about it. =)

Does anyone have that Brigham Young quote handy? The one that says we’re resurrected as old fogies and REGRESS in age until we reach our “prime” (whatever age that may be).

Stephen – If there’s ever been a more accomplished satirist than Mark Twain, I’m unaware of him/her. While somewhat hard on religion, I’ve always found his examinations to be thought-provoking and humorous.

You are obviously channeling Mark Twain a bit yourself.
