Gee, what I shame better records of Ham's descendants weren't kept, overwise there could be so much more posthumous salvation.

If their name is in the database, the Mormons already their names available for "necro-dunking". Every person with a published obituary in today's newspaper is available for "necro-dunking".

If the Mormon religion is false, then "necro-dunking" will have no more effect that my saying, "I hereby use the power of the Karma of Internet Connectivity to baptize you, Tennessee Nana, into the Church of Kundar."

If it's false, it's just meaningless babbling.

I've used Mormon resources for genealogical research and it helped quite a bit.

Oh, good grief! He acts like these “treasure” records belong only to the LDS. These are public records that have been in libraries and index books for decades. Anyone can browse them online from the comfort of their easy chair from many different sites.

The principle of baptism for the dead is biblical. The LDS teachings on it resolve the divisions that exist between Christian sects regarding the fate of those who die without knowledge of Christ. You can read my article about it here if you wish to understand our belief.

The LDS records are only as good as the submitters information. I quit using them due to the enormous amount of errors they contain. And in most cases you CANNOT contact the submitter to get the errors corrected.

Be wary of accepting what you find in these records as correct.
