It is sad when people continuously bash something they obviously know nothing about.

1) Mission Presidents and Bishops are not even remotely the same thing

2) Bishops DO NOT GET PAID (in any way, shape, or form). My husband is a bishop - there is no paycheck received (nor reimbursement or “tithing breaks” or any other such nonsense that people are claiming)

3) Mission Presidents are asked to leave their homes, leave their jobs (something bishops and other church leaders are not asked to do), and move to a new place to lead thousands of missionaries. Because they CANNOT work in another job during their tenure as a mission president, the church provides for their family during this call.

I know more about mormonism than you know.
My uncle was a bishop, he received about 35 grand a year in “reminbursments”. Please, don’t tell me they don’t get paid.
You have the talking points down pat, good job.

The 35grand was in the ‘70s.
It’s funny you are commenting on a two year old post.
