=Getting Married= | |||
When a couple announces their engagement, they are each required to have a separate interview with Pastor Noriega in his office. In the interview, they are required to confess any previous sexual encounters (full graphic details are a requirement). The reason for separate interviews is to find discrepancies (police style - except police require a witness in the room, while Isaac Noriega does not). A full sexual history prior to attending the church is required. | |||
This interview process is carreed out with ALL couples and, it is assumed, that this is the reason almost all weddings at Golden Dawn are private. Isaac Noriegas has been known to use the interview information in his sermons. These requirements started in approximately 1985. | |||
