I read this on one of my friends blogs and thought that it was so important I wanted to post it on my blog. I have wrote a letter of complaint to HBO about this upcomming show and I encourage you to do so as well. It breaks my heart to see the world we are living in now and how spiritual things are treated so lightly. Hopefully if enough people protest against this show then they will not air it. Thank you.
Many of you may have heard of HBO's television show, Big Love. It came out a couple of years ago, and it shows polygamous families. When it first came out, the church came out with a strong statement against Big Love and Polygamy. You can see the statement here: http://www.newsroom.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/commentary/church-responds-to-questions-on-hbo-s-big-love
However, as if the polygamy weren't bad enough, HBO has taken their unscrupulousness to new heights.
On Sunday, March 15, 2009, HBO will be airing a segment of their Big Love series that will show individuals dressed in full temple clothing (you can see the pictures right in the TV guide itself), and they are planning on recreating the temple ordinances on public television. They have an ex-member of the church that is helping them make this ceremony as authentic as possible (you can see even from the pictures they have posted how closely they have replicated the clothing).
Please help stop HBO from airing such an offensive show! You can go to the link below to submit a comment to HBO.

It's imperative that we get as many people to voice their complaints as possible before HBO airs the show. Please pass this information on to as many people as you can!
If you are not a member of the LDS church, we invite you to learn about our church and out temples from a true source: http://www.mormon.org/
PLEASE take some time and contact HBO.
Thank you!
