The dominating story-line seemed to be the extent of your education and not so much about your love for the Lord. Every move they make is methodically planned out and meticulously performed.
One recent article from the Church’s website went so far as to tell members not to approach the General Authorities – they want people to understand GA’s aren’t there to sign autographs, or have conversations with those around them.
They seem to parade these men in white coats around to give the impression they’re unreachable, just like their god.
