Vatican: LDS Church’s Practice “Detrimental”

May 5th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Hot Off The Presses, Mini-Posts, Only in Utah..., Religion

Catholic bishops told to withhold parish information from Mormons - Salt Lake Tribune

The Vatican letter calls LDS baptisms for the dead a “detrimental practice” and directs each Catholic diocesan bishop “not to cooperate with the erroneous practices of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,” CNS reported.

It annoys me that in 150 years, someone will baptise me according to the LDS doctrine of baptism for the dead, and there’s not a damn thing I can do about it, other than mark the heavenly post “refused due to erroneous practice.”

    Well, unless it magically has an effect on my afterlife, I resent it less than the implication that it will make me particularly happy or save me or something like that.

    But, then, I suspect I’ll have more important things to be paying attention to in 150 years.
