Brigham Young’s Great-Great-Granddaughter on Mormonism and Mitt Romney

13. Not true about what about challenging leaders being a very bad thing to do

Both my mom and a close friend (also a woman) have had Bishops do some things they didn't agree with and have worked through both instances by going to the Bishop's superior, the Stake President. Coincidentally, my mom's Stake President is a died in the wool Democrat and a great man.

While I'm sure it happens occasionally, my experience is more often than not a challenge to a priesthood leader can be taken care of a number of different ways. Mitt may have been that type of a leader, but portraying most church leadership in this aspect is not accurate (i'm referring mostly to that statement in the last paragraph.

Also, check out one of my favorite blog posts from a Mormon Dem Bishop for those who are interesting in his thoughts on political neutrality in the church (http://welcomingtheother.blogspot.com/2012/07/politics-and-facebook_09.html). He's a great example of a good Bishop, he's not infallible but doing his best like most of the leaders I've seen in the church.
