“I said the office is higher. I did not say President Romney (Church title he still retains)as a man is higher.”
You’re forgetting the priesthood structure, CC. Stake President is a CALLING. To be qualified for the calling, you must hold the office in the Priesthood of High Priest - there are quite a few of those in a given stake.
When a person is released from the calling of Stake President, they no longer retain that authority. They continue to hold the office of High Priest, though, even if their next calling is Scoutmaster.
I love how we keep using Scoutmaster as a contrast to Stake President. Oh, how low thou has fallen, Scoutmaster!
President Romney even as a scoutmaster but past Stake President holds a position of knowing what the teachings of the LDS Church are.
The initial post was to signify that indeed Romney was an informed, knowledgeable, ecclisiastical LEADER. He isn’t just a participant, who blushes at the embarrassing aspects of Mormonism as George W. Bush suggested.
I don’t care how many of you want to tag-team and make it appear that this isn’t so, but Romney is definitely a “good,” practicing believing Mormon. Trying to attack me over what you perceive to be an inaccuracy doesn’t change that in any way.
Are you trying to suggest Romney doesn’t understand Mormonism? Because that is what my post was addressing. As I said before, please do try to keep up.
LOL! Only when they go hiking and are "not prepared".
