Default so why were men sealed to men?

some sort of continuation of the adam/god theory?

:wink:

why was it practiced, and why did it stop?

Default

I think it was more in the sense of father-son than out of some sort of group marriage thing - of couse, if a man is sealed to multiple women, and then another man is sealed to him, does that mean the new man and the wive have some sort of marital relationship? :twisted:

My head hurts now.

Default It was done to ...

... create a sealed, priesthood link all the way back to Adam. As for the significance of that, I do not know exactly. As for why the practice was discontinued after the death of BY, well ... seems more than a couple things were changed after BY's death. :?
