Catholics don't know what the judgement of the individual soul will be upon death. It is possible for any human being, including a Mormon, to get into Heaven so long as they exhibit perfect contrition for their sins and invincible ignorance as to their choice of religion.

The point is, God will give every human being in their lifetime the necessary graces to get into Heaven. No one is prejudged. The question is whether the person will choose to cooperate with those graces or not.

Hi Peter

Have you raised the bar here for Mormons? Or not? This perfect contrition of sins and invincible ignorance of choice of religion sounds like an overly rigorous standard for salvation. Would your typical good willed, but fallible Methodist be subject to the same standard?

I think everyone is subject to the same standard: how much did they cooperate with the graces God gave? Methodists may have an inherent advantage in that their religion is closer to Catholicism than Mormonism. But on the other hand, maybe that means they will be held to a higher standard. It's impossible to say. Only God knows. We must assume everyone will be treated justly on an individual basis.
