Somehow I have the suspicion that that don guy didn't really have any sincere questions but just wanted to stir up trouble. And I don't know what you mean by not answering questions?

Which was the vibe I got as well, and so did other mods that I had check it out. So, to keep things calm, I decided to shut 'er down and redirect to this thread.
my questions are following
are mormon women willing to marry a man who has never been a missionary?
are mormon women willing to marry someone who is atheist?
mormon church was historically against minorities and preached that white people are superior to others.Truly?

That is correct. He posted in the Utah forum some completely inappropriate railings. That post was deleted and is why he is no longer a member.

Well for your first questions many are, many arn't
second question: ditto
And absolutely did the church ever teach superiority! and no they were not against minorities.

Yes. There are millions of converts, who are beyond the traditional age for a mission, and they get married all the time.

If they are faithful members, then the likelihood is no. Marriage in the Temple to a member in good standing is essential to salvation. If the woman is a Latter Day Saint in name only, but does not practice the faith, then there is a possibility.

so,what's your own preference? is it really important to go mission for man?
Mormonism is not just a sunday religion it is a way of life and for me personally (and many I know) it is very important that your spouse shares your spiritual views. Yes it is important to go on a mission and yes my husband did but many may join the church after the age of a mission and therefore did not go. I know husbands that are strong members but did not go on missions because they joined the church after the age or they were going through a period of "rebellion" at that time, or some other reason just didn't go. I don't think one should make the decision of marrying someone based on whether or not he served a mission. I think the important thing to consider is where is he now.

sorry,I still cannot understand it thoroughly.
Are you saying that LDS church only wants its members to marry other members instead of people from other religion?
A non-LDS member and a LDS member can get married in the Temple?
