I thought President Clinton helped clarify that blow jobs don't constitute sex.

Bet he didn't make that mistake twice.

Having never been a SP/Bishop, I still would think it might be wise to float the idea before making the call, to get an idea of personal circumstances that I might not know about. It's my understanding that the week before Stake Conference, they call in several "candidates" for interviews.

Not necessarily. I suspect this varies significantly from stake to stake.

The Church has to be very careful, in particular now with all the sex abuse litigation and more importantly, to protect our children, to not allow individuals with past transgressions against children to serve in callings, including leadership positions in the primary and YM/YW. The only way a bishop can identify such an individual is for membership records to be flagged. Individuals are made aware that their records will be flagged, to protect children from harm and them from being put in situations that may lead them to transgress again. I recall an individual going through the repentance process until his blessings were restored many years after the transgression. Although the individual was allowed to return to full fellowship in the Church, he was told he would not be able serve in callings involving children and that his record would be flagged. I assume most on this board would not have any problems with such an individual's record being flagged. Cougarobgon |
