SALT LAKE CITY - Annelies Marie "Anne" Frank, (June 12, 1929 – March 1945), one of the most renowned Jewish victims of the Holocaust, was posthumously baptized in a Mormon temple, on Saturday, February 18, 2012, under her full name, "Annelies Marie Frank." Mormons have submitted versions of Anne Frank's name at least a dozen times for proxy rites. She has been posthumously baptized in Mormon temples, at least nine times from 1989-1999, and now again in 2012.
Anne Frank's latest baptism was performed in the Santo Domingo Dominican Republic (LDS) Temple. Frank was confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by proxy, in the same Mormon temple, also on February, 18, 2012. She would have been confirmed a Mormon by proxy, after each of her prior baptisms.
The discovery of the latest proxy baptism for Anne Frank comes on the heels of the recent posthumous baptisms of Simon Wiesenthal's parents, and the inclusion of the names of the famous living Holocaust survivor, Elie Wiesel, and several deceased members of his family, in New FamilySearch, the religious database used for proxy ordinance submissions.
Rosa (Rapp) Wiesenthal, the mother of well-known Holocaust survivor and Nazi-hunter, Simon Wiesenthal, was a Jewish Holocaust victim. Rosa (Rapp) Wiesenthal was baptized by proxy in the Bountiful Utah (LDS) Temple, on January 21, 2012. Shlomo Wiesel, the father of Elie Wiesel, was a Jewish Holocaust victim whose name was submitted for proxy baptism.
Anne Frank was an unmarried teenager when she died. She left no descendants. Mormons are supposed to submit only the names of their ancestors. It is against Mormon church rules to submit the names of Jewish Holocaust victims, unless the submitter has direct family ties to the deceased. The security of the names submissions process for posthumous rites must be questioned, in view of the rash of prominent Jewish Holocaust names that have recently appeared on Mormon temple rolls.

These guys make Scientology seem sane.
That sounds creepy to me but I’m not expert on the Mormon religion. Maybe someone can explain.
They’re not going to stop doing this kind of thing.
They just don’t respect the beliefs of others, yet, demand that others bow to theirs.
Meaningless mumbo-jumbo.
big whoop. as if it matters to anyone alive.
How many times have the Mormons said they were going to quit doing this sort of thing?
I thought they promised they weren’t going to dead dunk anymore.
Knock it off you nutjob mormen!
Will these Mormons quit doing that? How dare they assume for one minute ... as in I Corinthians 15:29, “Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?” ... the culture of Mormonism is truly despicable. I do hope that Mitty gets nominated, it will bring out the horror of Mormonism and how totally non-Christian they are. If nothing else it might hopefully bring about the destruction of this anti-Christian cult.
It is not possible to go to the highest level of celestial being unless you are mormon, so they dead baptism people to give them a second chance after death. They have even performed this “ceremony” for their jesus and his wives.
It was only a week ago that the LDS Church issued the promise that this dead-dunking of Jews would no longer happen unless their own descendants did the Temple ordinances on their behalf. Anne Frank died without having descendants.
So much for the promises of the LDS Church.
