A Las Vegas man injured while performing submersion baptisms in the name of the
dead has sued The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for medical
expenses.
The civil suit filed Wednesday in Salt Lake City's 3rd District Court claims
Daniel Dastrup suffered severe back injuries after performing about 200 baptisms
at the LDS temple in Raleigh, NC, on August 25, 2007. Dastrup now lives in Las
Vegas.
The then 25-year-old claims some of the young men and women weighed up to
250 pounds.
(Billy's Thoughts>>> It is sad whenever a person of faith takes their own church to court to fix something bad that has happened but could God be using what happen here to show us that we should not do baptisms in the name of the dead. If you like you can read more on this issue Mormons sued over baptism-related
injury.)
