exactly. No one here is arguing about what's in the law of chastity. We're talking about a new policy that deals with those who haven't sinned against that law.
And ute4ever's response in a nutshell basically is, "it's all good. Those children are in that situation because of something they did in the pre-earth life." That's not doctrine. It's just plain nutty, and frankly dangerous thinking in my view because it would seem to make it very easy to be flattered by the devil into thinking because you don't have that problem and were born into a favorable situation and your life has been pretty good that you must be just a little better than those poor saps. Maybe they actually brought that situation unto themselves, to quote King Benjamin.
