From the report on the Church's failure to keep the agreement signed in 1995:

Since the agreement, the Church has gone through a series of processes to ensure that all online ordinance details are completely off-limits to non-Mormons. Now only a person
with a special user log-in (an accredited Mormon) can access ordinance data in the online
IGI to determine which LDS rituals have been done for a dead person. This precaution
appears to be a security “shield” that protects the privacy of the LDS Church. The Church
made an agreement with Jews and then attempted to eliminate all non-LDS monitoring of
ongoing ordinance activity.


How, Dr Peterson is this acting in good faith?
God has the right to create and to destroy, to make like and to kill. He can delegate this authority if he wishes to. I know that can be scary. Deal with it.

with the help of HG on the previous page I wrote:In this era of electronic data, deleting something may mean:
- marking the data as unavailable to plebs (the unworthy)
- moving the data to another place, unavailable to plebs
...
The baptism of the objectors can be continued, only the records must marked hidden.

There is another side to this matter. It's available for those interested.

This is not an issue that I've followed closely. I know the Church leaders involved, and I trust them.

I would not hold your breath on a response .. There are none to be had.
Dr Peterson looked fairly foolish trying to defend his bosses.

And this is the thing with Mr. Peterson... He doesn't back up anything he asserts. He just states that something is so-and-so, OR he references some other apologetic piece.

It's ridiculous.

I, for one, won't miss that schtick. It was tiresome.
