If 100 billion have already died…and another billion die in less than every-40 years, why aren’t Mormons doing more to obsessively focus on the dead?
Are they not listening to their leaders?
Lds founding “prophet” Joseph Smith:
“The GREATEST RESPONSIBILITY IN THIS WORLD that God has placed upon us is to SEEK AFTER OUR DEAD.” (Joseph Smith, Jr., Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 356)
Lds “prophet” Wilford Woodruff, who had the Mormon power to begin turning off the valve of polygamy:
“There is hardly any principle the Lord has revealed that I have rejoiced more in than in the redemption of our dead…” (Teachings of Presidents: Wilford Woodruff, pp. 192-193)
LDS ‘scripture’: …It is the baptism for the dead. For we without them cannot be made perfect; neither can they without us be made perfect.” (Lds doctrines & covenants 128:18)
Are not the Mormons to be the “saviors” of the entire dead world?
The answer, which per Mormon leaders, is “yes” to that question. See here for documentation:
* Are Mormon people LITERAL saviors of dead Jews, others? (The OTHER World Series: Vanity)
Only one life, 'twill soon be past, Only what's done for Christ will last. CT Studd.
Can’t they build an app so they put toothpaste back into a tube and then give “a sense” of sentient thought and free will that is easily conned into changing a previous lifetime of adherence to another orthodox or doctrine? /S
Lacking so much proof of their previous existence they will conjure up any tool that can provide future generations of synthetic proof and a sense of belonging to someplace in the past.
Christians don’t spend a whole lot time dwelling on the past, lest they become “rut dwellers”.
We look forward to a full life enriched with all the gifts God may provide and our everlasting salvation, through Jesus Christ and our oneness with him one day...
