I mean, you're pretty much guaranteed a spot in the celestial kingdom - it's like the free space in bingo - and you can just chill there until future Mormons eventually pray your way into the telestial kingdom. It's not a bad deal.
I didn't grow up Mormon, but the one thing I will say is that I wish I'd grown up with y'all's weird cosmic afterlife theology. Instead I just got told I was almost certainly going to hell and the best thing I could do was try to live a perfect life and maybe be forgiven... I much prefer the Mormon idea of the "outer darkness" being a place reserved exclusively for Nazi war criminals and the like.
I thought it was Outer Darkness for me, on accounta hearing the light and still rejecting it
but yeah, we have the nicest cosmology. I remember being really shocked and said when I found out everyone else thinks angels aren't just people waiting to live their lives, but God's personal servants shackled to his will.
