[2] Doctrine and Covenants 84:33-9; Goddesses are always subject to a god. Women are denied
the Priesthood (meaning they are denied authority—not the same as Catholic priesthood). “In the
LDS universe, theologically described as the real eternal universe, each man who achieves the
highest degree of the Celestial Kingdom is worth many times more than each woman, even the
women who qualify at that highest Celestial level, because each man who achieves Godhood-
level may have numerous God-wives, but each God-wife may have only one husband. This can
only mean that each "heavenly father" is worth many times more than each "heavenly mother."
And, even if the ratio were strictly one to one, the male God, not the female God, holds the
priesthood authority and is the only one of the God parents to whom his earth-mortality children
are allowed to pray. So Mormon women can never, NEVER achieve equality with men, no matter
how outstanding or righteous the women are. That's just the way it's set up." MORMON
