“The Mormons have a pretty idea that each name we resurrect, revere and transcribe in genealogy represents a living spirit, who thus honored and, as it were, invoked, ever after becomes one of our guardian angels. Think of having thousands of such beneficent spirits as protectors.”

From the article, in 1975, Already we have collected hundreds of millions of names, and the work goes forward in the temples and will go on in other temples that will be built. The size of the effort we do not suggest should be impressive, for we are not doing nearly as well as we should be.

“The temple lifts us. It exhalts us. It stands as a beacon for all to see and points us to celestial glory” Thomas Monson, Deseret Ne4ws, March 13, 2009)

No mention of the neferious goings on...
