Jesus Christ was the Saviour of the world. He suffered and died for the sins of the world when he was crucified. His sacrifice was a symbolic act for and in behalf of every person who had ever lived or was ever going to live on the earth.
So...
It is therefore proven that one person could be symbolically baptised for and in behalf of every person who has ever lived in one act of posthumous baptism.
Thomas S Monson could visit the temple today and complete one posthuomous symbolic baptism that would cover everyone who has thus far died without hearing the Gospel.
This could be repeated annually by whoever was Prophet and would:
A. Save the cost of building and operating all those temples.
B. Be more effective in processing every single dead person.
C. Avoid human errors in genealogy work.
D. Be non offensive to other groups of non Mormon people.
It would be far more effective in delivering the objective of allowing all people the option of accepting the gospel. A similar process could be applied to all the other ordinances.
