I went to a church meeting several years ago. It was my nephew's missionary farewell. My BIL was the ward bishop. It was a small chapel and the place was about 20 percent full. Same with the other ward that met in that building as I checked for my own amusement. My BIL freely admits that his ward runs on a skeleton crew basis. There are only a handful of families that really care/ believe and they are doubled and tripled up on callings. Instead of consolidating the wards like they should, LDS Inc is operating like that to keep the number of wards inflated and to maintain an abnormal amount of vanity leadership callings, like bishop, as a carrot on a stick motivation to the few faith active. In that environment, it is well know that any priestDUD holder who is active and shows any enthusiasm is in contention to run for office and has a great shot for ward bishop.
Here is a talk from that horrible meeting, Yah If I have to sit through a MORmON meeting then I am going to shoot some video!!!
