Hey, i'm just learning about mormonism... When you say you are a priest at the temple what does that mean? Is it modeled after the Jewish Temple where the priests job was to perform animal sacrifices? How are you a priest? What does it mean that you are a priest? Does it mean that you are more connected to God then other people? Why do you want to be a priest? What is it for? Maybe you would be happier if you donated some time to a homeless shelter or something like that? I hope this doesn't upset anyone, I just don't understand...
