[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 160502, member: 1246"] Mormon Garments..... Garments are a symbolic gesture of the promises that Mormons have made to God. The garment is always worn under other clothing, next to the skin. In fact, for most people who wear it, the garment takes the place of regular underwear. Mormons begin wearing it during their first visit to the temple, wherein they receive individual instruction on how the garment should be worn and cared for, and furthermore, they undergo a sacred ceremony called the [URL="http://www.mormonwiki.com/mormonism/Temple_endowment"][U][COLOR=#0000ff]temple endowment[/COLOR][/U][/URL].
