”Anyway, there does not seem to me to be any binding reason for LDS to demand that Jesus was married or had children, but there is also not anything to necessarily preclude a non-demanding view that this is true.”
This is a terrible dilemma for your church Tom. It has cult written all over it, this statement that you have made. If Jesus was married to a human in the sense that you state then he would not be the God that Christians profess. Not even close.
This is insane you know, you do not know the nature of God. You seem so intelligent and yet you have not embraced the obvious when it comes to Christ, to the message of Christ, to the Gospel, God to us, along with the Cross. I am wondering what does intelligence play in all of this? As our Priest would say, conversion happens by way of the heart.
You have a Jesus looking out for himself, his own glory. Can you not see that we are all His created Children? Bringing Christ down to a created level is so laced with Heresy and is very dangerous to the soul. What makes Christ so special is that he is our Creator, that he took on human form in order to save us Tom. The devil will always take a lesser place in all things that are of Christ as he like us was also created by Him.
*We are the bride of Christ Tom, the community in Christ Jesus, the Church, can you not see the Glory in this? You do not want to see the glory in this for whatever reason. *
*God the second person of the Trinity died for us, for you Tom, not an exalted married man. God died for you, a sinner who has no other way to get to Him, to be with him forever. You are the one he is married to Tom, all you need do is accept this marriege. Jesus did not come to marry a created women or two, he came to marry you in a spirituel sense. *
*The bond between Christ and the human race can not be degraded down to a Jesus who marries one or two of His creation in a human sense. The marriage feast that Catholics attend includes all of us, it spans all of eternity and includes a love beyond any reason that anyone could come up with as a mere mortal. Good Friday shows us Cleary who the Bridegroom is, what God has done for all of us who care to immerse themselves into the death and resurrection of Our Lord and God Jesus Christ. *
We marry here because we are here to learn about love, not a sexual kind of Love, but the love of God to His eternal son forever.
What exactly are you learning to convert souls away from these truths? You seem to have embraced earthy wants and desires and bring them into the heavens, and you apparently have been chosen to do this well. But who is pulling your strings? Remember Jesus in the dessert, the things he was offered, he was not fooled because he knew cleary who was doing the offering. But we are not as strong nor wise. Even the very best can be fooled, used. (Paul was) But these same souls can become a burning fire for the Spirit of God. Come on over Tom, we need you!!!
Lots of Love from Catholic RCIA
*God Bless you Tom in all sincerity. *

This is the most heart felt testamony that I have read on this forum. It burns with the spirit. I would hope that all who read this, independant of religous belief, would feel truth and inspiration in your plea.
Thank you
