Default Disappointed with Nelson's talk

Do we need to pile on people grieving lost loved ones by disagreeing with them that their loved ones will be reunited with non-sealed spouses beyond the veil?

Would you like to know the truth or not?

The speech sounds horrendous. Maybe he's losing it. How old is he now?

I guess if the person providing the truth to me knew for certain

a. if my loved one was in spirit prison, that non-sealed spouses couldn't mingle in spirit prison
b. if my loved one was in paradise, that non-sealed spouses couldn't mingle in paradise
c. there was no provision whereby God might allow non-sealed spouses on earth who would later accept sealing ordinance to mingle with spouse in either prison or paradise

So you're saying that Nelson is more guilty of guesswork than tactlessness?

Can it be tactless to guess on such a sensitive subject?

Stop dancing around this Jay: are you saying that Elder Nelson doesn't really know the answer and he's just recklessly extrapolating?

Yes or no?

I don't think the revealed knowledge on this subject justifies such a harsh position.

He may know, but I don't. I pay attention to the revelations on the next life, and it's pretty hazy to me.
