- Notes
- "All non-Christians, not to mention atheists, living and dead can now be assured of entering heaven, thanks to the Mormons ['Baptism for the dead must stop, says Holocaust survivor', anglicanjournal.com, Mar. 5, 2012]. Mormons can baptize the dead as well as the living by using a member of their congregation as a stand-in. However, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are losing millions of souls by baptizing non-Mormons one at a time. I suggest they baptize all seven billion earthlings and their predecessors by using their whole congregation as proxies for us all". Letter accompanied by colour cartoon. [Text of entire article.]
