Topic: Mother's Day



  
 Mother - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mothers are celebrated yearly, on Mother's Day, in many countries around the world.
In the case of a mammal such as a human, the mother gestates her child (called first an embryo, then a fetus) in the womb from conception until the fetus is sufficiently well-developed to be born.
A mother is the biological or social female parent of a child or offspring, while the male parent is the father.

 Mother's Day History
In the United States, Mother's Day started nearly 150 years ago, when Anna Jarvis, an Appalachian homemaker, organized a day to raise awareness of poor health conditions in her community, a cause she believed would be best advocated by mothers.
Before her death in 1948, Jarvis is said to have confessed that she regretted ever starting the mother's day tradition.
In 1923 she filed a lawsuit to stop a Mother's Day festival, and was even arrested for disturbing the peace at a convention selling carnations for a war mother's group.

 Heavenly Mother - encyclopedia article about Heavenly Mother.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints did not formally acknowledge the existence of a Heavenly Mother until 1909, in a doctrinal statement on evolution by the First Presidency marking the 50th anniversary of Charles Darwin's Origin of Species, where the doctrine was stated indirectly.
Other references to the Heavenly Mother doctrine can be found in Latter-day Saint speeches and literature.
The Church has continuted to maintain that the Holy Ghost is male and that little has been revealed on the subject, therefore anything other than acknowledgement of a Heavenly Mother is speculative.
