GeoffJ, who normally loves all things Mormon and speculative, seems to have lost interest in doing so when it comes to Mother in Heaven. Instead, some other men step in to beat their chests in defense of Heavenly Mom, presumably to prove how feminist and pro-woman they are to their wives whom they oppress with the brickbat of the Priesthood.

No scriptures on Heavenly Mother? Um, yeah, what about:

    And Adam said, This [is] now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Um, who were Adam's father and mother that he should leave to cleave unto Eve? Uh huh, yeah. Thought so.

Look, Annie, if Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother are as united as you say they are, and they are, just like the Father and the Son are, then worshipping the Father in spirit and truth is the same as worshipping Mother in spirit in truth. Lip service is just lip service. Heavenly Mother wants the same thing Father and Son want, children with a godly walk, not a bunch of sanctimonious pseudofeminist claptrap that seeks to cast anyone who refuses to elevate Heavenly Mother in conversation lest they relegate her by implication to "underling goddess/goddina/goddette".
