"The LDS Church has a lay clergy, consequently, there is no professional clergy. Romney never made a dime for his services as an LDS bishop ... he did it only for the love of Jesus Christ."

You say that as if it were a "good" thing.

Tell us teppe, does having no professional psychology training as a bishop help or not? How about training in marriage counseling? Counseling teens?

No, I daresay that having a "good" mormon promoted from within the ranks for checking off boxes on the exaltation checklist is not a "good" thing.

I've personally seen too many mormons hurt by an inept, ineffective and untrained "layman".
