Discussions toward a better understanding of LDS doctrine, history, and culture. Discussion of Christianity, religion, and faith in general is welcome.
So, how are these blessings restored? Do they do some priesthood ordinance? Or is it just a click in the computer?
Sounds like your membership/ordination doesn’t cease, but just gets suspended and then they can unsuspend, which requires you still have info in the database. I wonder if there is simply a flag they put on your record to indicate you are no longer a member. Then they can still pull reports on ex members.
Yep, like wtfluff and el-asherah said.

A nagging question is - does the church still include a flagged resigned/excommunicated record in the membership totals. I suspect they do.
The church has a very, very ,very long memory. They make elephants look like they have Alzheimer's.
Actually a little disturbing to think how they might act if they ever truly had the power they desire and were running the world. I doubt apostates, old foes and antagonists would survive long.
