Well, that's what the devil wants you to think, since he can't have a body. That's one of the things that Mormon nudists like to think about: we get sent here to get a body and it goes with us in the afterlife. It's not something to be ashamed of.

On a related note, has anyone here read the Great and the Terrible series?

Think Left Behind, but with a slightly more non-ficitional tone and from an LDS view.

The author is a retired air-force general.

Think of it as Tom Clancy/Post Apocalyptic/Second Coming stuff

Coincidently the first book is actually set in the Pre-Existence.

Thanks...right now trying to read the BofM by the end of the year. I think that will be my next read after I'm done.
