					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://whymormonism.org/57/family_in_mormonism#comment-454&quot;&gt;Tim Price&lt;/a&gt;.

Sorry it&#039;s taken so long to answer your questions, Tim.  The Mormon Church allows divorce according to civil law, depending on the state and country laws.  There are even divorces  between couples who have married in the temple.  

Once divorced, a person can remarry, and once granted a temple divorce, can remarry in the temple.  Many Catholics have converted to Mormonism.  Yes, as Paul said, there are three main kingdoms in heaven, the Celestial, Terrestrial, and Telestial.  Read more at http://www.mormonwiki.com/Celestial,_Terrestrial,_and_Telestial_Kingdoms   
Within those kingdoms are many mansions.  

There are two definitions of hell in Mormonism.  Sometimes it refers to the suffering we go through in the &quot;spirit world&quot; as we await resurrection and judgment -- this suffering is experienced by those who reject the atonement of Jesus Christ, so they must suffer for their own sins.  All will inherit a kingdom in heaven except those who commit &quot;the sin against the Holy Ghost,&quot; which is to have a perfect witness that Jesus is the Christ and then deny Him, thus &quot;crucifying Him anew.&quot;  Mormons sometimes call this &quot;outer darkness,&quot;  because it is complete separation from God.   Eternal loneliness and suffering of the soul are a huge part of this.  You can read more by looking at Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon&#039;s vision of heaven and hell, found at the following link:  http://lds.org/scriptures/dc-testament/dc/76?lang=eng]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am Catholic and am going through a difficult time in my life. My wife of 24 years is divorcing me for reasons that I won&#039;t disclose here. We have three children together; two grown and in college and one 16 year old still at home. The Catholic church forbids divorce and my wife could be subject to severe punishment by God upon death. How does the Mormon church view this?
     The Catholic church can allow me to remarry again under certain circumstances. How does the Mormon church view this?
     Could I ever marry a Mormon woman and have children with her? Has a Catholic ever converted to Mormonism?
     I believe that Heaven is made up of different levels based on the life that one leads. How does the Mormon church view this?
     How does the Mormon church teach Hell? Is it a lake of fire and eternal damnation; or eternal lonliness and suffering?

Thank you]]></description>
