In this episode we talk about something unique to Mormonism: Baptisms for the dead. Fun fact. We don't literally baptize dead people. Nope, we actually do work "vicariously" for people that have died. In other words, we act in behalf of those people to be baptized.
Baptism for the dead only happens in LDS (Mormon) temples. Mormon temples can only be entered into by worthy members of the LDS Church who are over 12 years old. Baptism for the dead is performed just as it is for the living-- by full immersion in water and using the same prayer as would be said in a living baptism.
