The Mormon wedding ceremony is a favorite topic in anti-Mormon literature.
A pet peeve among Protestant anti-Mormon writers is a scene in which Satan hires a mainline Protestant minister and instructs him in propagating Satan's lies.
(I never could figure out why the anti-Mormons think the Mormons calling mainline Protestantism a Satanic plot is any different from mainline Protestants calling Mormonism a Satanic plot.)

I can't wait to see whether or not this particular scene airs on Sunday.

They will. Or at least they're planning to.

Quote:
The makers of television polygamy drama "Big Love" apologized on Tuesday for any offense to Mormons in a depiction of a sacred ritual but made clear it would air the controversial episode as planned.

That's funny, because Big Love has made me like Mormons more than i had before.

I am looking forward to seeing the ceremony (don't watch the show) on YouTube.
