Offering the deceased the opportunity for eternal life by baptising them after they are dead - why on earth would they need the permission of the relatives? It is a religious gesture from their faith to God to accept those that never had the opportunity, desire at the time, or ability to come to God under what Mormons believe necessary. Is it any worse than someone privately praying for the soul of a deceased atheist, or making an offering to God to accept him/her even though they were an atheist? I can guarantee you this happens millions of times a year in thousands of churches that are NOT Mormon.

I usually stay out of other peoples religion but the LDS church by fraud took my ancestors data and performed their voodoo ritual of baptizing them Mormon after their deaths. My grandmother was a bible believing Christian who told me personally that Mormonism is a cult. I know she would never want to be associated with them in anyway, shape, or form, Therein lies the problem I know with an absolute certainty she would have not wanted this done to her. It's a violation of my Grandma's wishes. You have no right doing this kind of voodoo to anyone's ancestors without permission

Don't think you can guarantee much of anything since you got the zot. As another poster pointed out, given your posting history it was a long time coming...
