These guys make Scientology seem sane.
That sounds creepy to me but I’m not expert on the Mormon religion. Maybe someone can explain.
They’re not going to stop doing this kind of thing.
They just don’t respect the beliefs of others, yet, demand that others bow to theirs.
Meaningless mumbo-jumbo.
big whoop. as if it matters to anyone alive.
How many times have the Mormons said they were going to quit doing this sort of thing?
I thought they promised they weren’t going to dead dunk anymore.
Knock it off you nutjob mormen!
They’ve been busy with baptisms lately...

In the name of the dead Jews I just unbaptized her. There, Mittens can KMA.
Mormon authors Alan F. Keele and Douglas F. Tobler, in "The Führer's New Clothes," wrote,
"Hitler enjoyed at least as much popularity among German Mormons
as he did among the population in general. His apparent dynamism and self-confidence seemed
to show a way out of the chaos and weakness of the Weimar years...
Some Church members even saw Hitler as God's instrument,
preparing the world for the millennium." The Borks, above,
were among thousands of Mormon families who sent their sons
to fight for the Reich. The vital importance of "Aryan" ancestry
gave new significance to genealogical research, the writers
added in their Sunstone article. "And the Führer himself,
the non-smoking, non-drinking vegetarian who yielded
to no one in his desire for absolute law and order, seemed
to embody many of the most basic LDS virtues."
It was clear, the authors emphasized, that the Church's priority
was to maintain its strength and continue to make converts under the Third Reich.
It actually launched a public relations campaign to reassure
Germany of its fealty. Indeed, an article written for a special issue
of the Nazi Party organ Der Volkische Beobachter by the LDS Mission President
to West Germany, Alfred C. Rees, "abounds in such loaded terms as Volk
and Rasse (race), and a picture of Brigham Young bears the caption,
'Führer der historischen Mormonenpioniere.' Very disturbing
is the way President Rees blatantly parallels Mormonism with
Nazism…Mormonism sounds like a fulfillment of Nazi teachings."
LDS Temple Ordinance records indicate that Adolf Hitler was
"baptized" and "endowed" on December 10, 1993, and "sealed"
to his parents on March 12, 1994. These events took place
in the London Temple, in England. Hitler was "sealed" to Eva Braun
on September 28, 1993, in the Jordan River Temple, Utah, and
on June 14, 1994, in the Los Angeles Temple. According to the
Church, these names -- and the names of other high-ranking
Nazi officials and of Mussolini -- have been removed from the registry.
The issue of Mormons posthumously baptizing Jewish people into the
Church continues to resurface regularly.
There appears to have been considerable support for Hitler
within the Mormon cult.... and even substantial collaboration."
I had a housemate (back in college) that was into the New Age crap. She was an older gal, and was talking about how she, with her “dream guide” had entered my dreams.
I think it is mostly stupid, but there have been times where I’ve seen similar weird stuff that I believe. To be on the safe side I told her “Don’t you EVER go into my dreams again.”
I would treat these Mormon’s converting the dead thing the same way. What is that verse in the Bible, about being at war not with earthly things but with spirits? And while it seems clear that Smith just made it up, I think that Satan is just fine with using whatever a man can think up and use it for his own ends.
Of course I guess when one is dead you are either with God or you aren’t - and no amount of praying (or voodoo rituals, etc.) is going to change that. “Let the dead take care of their own.”
Pretty dam% presumtuous if you ask me.
