Inside the Latter-day Saints' Washington D.C. Temple



For decades the towering marble edifice that is the Washington, D.C. Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has posed a mystery to those outside the faith. Now, after a major renovation, CBS News’ Ed O’Keefe takes a tour inside the temple, before a public open house that will welcome all to visit a building dedicated to reverence and contemplation.

  1. I wish they had asked about the secret meetings held on weekday mornings between the church elders and the pre-pubescent boys. There is a lot of secrecy in this religion and knowing what I know, it borders on cult

  2. I went in there a couple weeks back! It was like a never ending series of 5 star hotel lobbies. It went on and on but never really went anywhere.

  3. The last day of the DC Temple open house was yesterday. I hope many of you had the opportunity to see the inside. Visitors are welcome to stroll around the outside and see the beautiful gardens and landscaping. Also, there is a visitor's center located on the property if you want to know more about our faith. At Christmas time, the outside of the visitors center is lit with about a million Christmas lights and there are a lot of free Christmas concerts put on by community groups. It is a great holiday tradition for many.

  5. Mormonism is a false religion with a false jesus a false prophet and a false "bible" joseph smith practiced divination occult practices to receive his supposed revelations. This is demonic doctrine as the true biblical jesus warned us of in the true bible.

  6. the mormon church was NOT persecuted for their beliefs. they were persecuted for lies, sins, false teachings, false prophecies occult origins(divination) and plural marriages. lets not let them play victims when they have a checkered history and dubious origin

  7. Beware of false prophets and trust in Jesus Christ and his teachings, man though sin want the truth to be how they want it to be and not what Jesus Christ teaches
    the book of Mormon is a lie
    Don't be deceived Jesus Christ is come in the flesh to die for your sins and save you and give you eternal life as a free gift by believing in Jesus Christ and what Jesus Christ did and how he rose from the grave on the 3rd day!
