No, but I did live through the era where Mormons were sent out to do exactly that but found themselves checking people's family pictures in Brazil before baptism, passing on black households, and placing truth-seekers in Ghana on hold for years because they couldn't get beyond this issue.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
