Well, I CERTAINLY have more right to their memory than someone who has no blood to them and never met them and is in a different ethnic group.

The NERVE of you people to presume access to other people's dead relatives and changing their religion posthumously! SHEESH!

And let me reiterate what I said above in case you missed it. I have worked with and known Mormons for 20 years: there is NO QUESTION that as individuals they were among the absolute FINEST people I've ever had the pleasure to know. One, in particular from Texas, passed on about 15 years ago and his life still is an inspiration to me.

You haven't been reading, apparently.

Their religion is not changed unless they accept the baptism.
We baptize by proxy, we do not dig up corpses or desecrate graves.
Names for work such as baptism are submitted by relatives/descendents.
