What do you like about this subject? The LDS faith is a facinating religion to explore.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? I hope to receive a doctorate degree and write my dissertation on an LDS topic.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: Many LDS people do not ever visit the temple. During an LDS wedding in the temple, non-members of the LDS faith are not allowed to be in the temple.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject Celestial Kingdom. The temple. Becoming a god.
