What makes the whole thing even odder is the Mormon belief that everyone will have the chance to hear and accept the gospel in the Resurrection. Why not just let folks decide for themselves then?


Just a point of clarification: in LDS teachings, all saving ordinances must be performed before the resurrection. That is how, for example, the Church reconciles Matthew 22:23-30 with the concept of eternal marriage. If I feel slightly less lazy I will find a reference for this.
