What about those who pay for their own sins and inherent a lesser kingdom?

It looks like we are safe in assuming that the BoM authors were writing with a limited perspective on salvation. They believed in heaven and hell. I don’t know that they believed in anything more than that.

Pure things were clean and beautiful, Impure things ugly and filthy. One of the reasons pigs are filthy is because they don’t have a pure form, the cloven (sp?) hoove, it also explains a lot of the prohibitions against such things as mixed textiles in clothing which are thus impure.

Sorry, that’s pretty random, but this post brought it to mind.
