Comments on: Will I be a D-cup in the Resurrection? http://bycommonconsent.com/2004/08/17/will-i-be-a-d-cup-in-the-resurrection/ A Mormon Blog Tue, 14 Feb 2012 20:31:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Hoodia http://bycommonconsent.com/2004/08/17/will-i-be-a-d-cup-in-the-resurrection/#comment-28265 Sat, 05 Nov 2005 04:25:00 +0000 http://centaur.nocdirect.com/~jbycommo/2004/08/will-i-be-a-d-cup-in-the-resurrection/#comment-28265 Help me Dude, I think I’m lost….. I was searching for Elvis and somehow ended up in your blog, but you know I’m sure I saw him in a car lot yesterday, which is really strange because the last time I saw him was in the supermarket. No honest really, he was right there in front of me, next to the steaks singing “Love me Tender”. He said to me (his lip was only slightly curled) “Boy, you need to get yourself a San Diego cosmetic surgery doctor ,to fit into those blue suede shoes of yours. But Elvis said in the Ghetto nobody can afford a San Diego plastic surgery doctor. Dude I’m All Shook Up said Elvis. I think I’ll have me another cheeseburger. Then I’m gonna go round and see Michael Jackson and we’re gonna watch a waaaay cool make-over show featuring some Tijuana dentists on the TV in the back of my Hummer. And then he just walked out of the supermarket singing. . . “You give me love and consolation,
You give me strength to carry on ” Strange day or what? :-)

Otherwise, I need to get rid of my gobble-gobble chin, and then I’ll be perfect. Well, except for the glasses.

Well, maybe I could be taller…

Of course denial is the first sign of a problem…

I think that in the Celestial Kingdom all sorts of attitudes towards makeup use and non-use will be tolerated. While I don’t know that I will be allowed into the Celestial Kingdom, I am sure that my lack of make-up will not be a problem if I happen to arrive there. Likewise, I would guess that if the members of KISS are there, they would be accepted in a spirit of love and fellowship.

I don’t think you’ll be forced to wear it in the hereafter (whatever you must do in this life) should you desire to be mascara free at that point.

I think it helps parents to remember we are all co-eternal and all the same age.

It is a bit weird and “leveling” ..but somehow fine!

I has hoping for some ammunition in my continuing war against mascara.

The question of beauty however is an interesting one since many aspects of what we consider attractive are tied to our genetics. The quesiton about beauty in the resurrection really hinges upon the question of how much of our brain will still be part of us. I’d hope that a lot is, but of course that is simply conjecture. Yet if it isn’t then in what sense will I still be me? Given the role the brain plays in who I am.

If a exalted being (as opposed to just a resurrected being) has the power that the scriptures suggest they do, then we probably would have the abillity to change a lot of this. So I suppose it is just a matter of freedom. In which case one asks the obvious question: what is worse? Using technology to change what one looks like or using technology to change what one desires?

The implication from the discussion is that somehow changing ones appearance is worse than changing ones desires. I don’t quite see why that is.

I am having difficulty parsing your post:

I do draw a line between surgery for purely cosmetic reasons, wearing mascara and exercise

I read that as lumping mascara with cosmetic surgery and approving exercise. While I am not a fan of mascara, this seems a bit extreme, no?
