But how is it any more different than a Christian praying that everyone comes to know Jesus as their savior?

If the problem is with people "wanting to convert" Jews, then you have a much broader problem than the thoroughly weird stuff that Mormons pretend to do on behalf of dead people.

I seriously don't get it.

Evangelical Christians assert one must believe in Jesus as savior to avoid hell. So, aren't evangelicals consigning most Jews (with a minor exception in the Revelation) to hell in the afterlife?
