Those are some sad stories, Indy.
I recognize the rationale behind the prophets' counsel (particularly Hunter) to always be worthy of your temple recommend, and I agree with it.
But that said, I think the holding of a temple recommend has become overemphasized as the measure of our membership. It's somehow morphed into, "as long as I can hold a temple recommend, I can do anything else I want." Somehow I don't think that was the intent.
