TSCC is vulnerable to lawsuits by allowing unqualified "clergy" providing counseling services. My first exposure to the misguided direction was when a bishop stated on several occasions that mental illness was caused by evil spirits. He asked a depressed young man if he "had ever done anything stupid like becoming drunk allowing evil spirits to possess him." The leadership in that stake was also fond of the "despair cometh because of iniquity" quote when dealing with those who were depressed.
Then there is the case of the local leadership where I currently live working with an apostate's managers trying to get her fired. I have watched them trying to paint this person as being mental ill. Numerous federal problems with this picture but the TSCC leaders do not give two $#i!#. The god complexes of bishopric members and stake leadership.
If the Q15 want to cease being perceived as misguided leaders of an organized crime syndicate, then it would be a good idea if that stop with their current method of selecting leaders and dealing with "apostates."
