12th President of the Church — Spencer Woolley Kimball — Served from 1973–1985
Question #1: What is the most valuable thing you have in life? The reference below reveals true Mormonism when their prophet said that virtue (read: virginity) is worth more than life itself. It’s also an example of why Utah suicide rates are so high. One would think that followers of Jesus would value their salvation above all other things.
Question #2: Do you believe this is something Jesus would say to you, or your daughter?
We must disavow all teachings like this. There’s nothing in God’s word telling us that virginity is worth more than life itself!

So if you are about to be raped, you should force the person to kill you?
It’s a pathetic uninspired person to say the things they have. Also see our post https://lifeafterministry.com/2020/03/mormon-quotes-on-rape-and-sexual-morality/
and what Heber Grant had to say http://lifeafterministry.com/2013/10/31/mormon-dilemma-758/

Mormons have had a very unhealthy view of sex. All starting with Smith’s polygamy law the men just can’t keep their pants on! And how many young women did Smith “deflower” who then could not reach glorification!?!
