dbo:abstract
  • Sexuality has a prominent role within the theology of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), which teaches that gender is defined in the premortal existence, and that part of the purpose of mortal life is for men and women to be sealed together, forming bonds that allow them to progress eternally together in the afterlife. It also teaches that sexual relations within the framework of opposite-sex marriage are healthy, necessary, and ordained of God. While official church messaging is relatively liberal regarding sex within opposite-sex and heterosexual marriages, it retains conservative doctrines regarding premarital sex. In accordance with the law of chastity, LDS Church doctrine bars sexual activity outside of heterosexual marriage. (en)
