I’m interested in the Mormon’s belief that a person, even after he/she is deceased, can be prayed into Heaven.

And is this why the Church of LDS in Salt Lake City, Utah, has such a large collection of genealogy records — for the purpose of being able to identify their ancestors and pray them into heaven?

And how much money does this process cost, i.e., the praying a dead ancestor into heaven?

I have a much greater interest in someone, because of their religion, wanting to cut my head off? Has any Mormon said they wanted to do that??

I believe your confusing Mormons with Catholics. :-)

About the same as a marriage annulment.

I believe it is actually being baptized in proxy that you are thinking of.

They actually ran afoul of the Jews for doing this for Jews that died in the Holocaust.

You seem to have Mormons mixed up with Catholics. Actually, you are just plain mixed up. Your statement about praying to get people into Heaven is so ignorant, it defies the existence of any brain cells.

This whole thread stinks to High Heaven.
