Our sexual feelings are the most powerful emotions we have. Does the leadership purposely use this leverage to trap people in Mormonism.
*sending young people on socially isolating missions during their most vulnerable periods of sexual awakening;
*insisting that there be no sexual activity outside wedlock and encouraging early, immature marriages;
*using confession and repentance to induce guilt and shame and subservience to the church;
*tying sex exclusively to the fundamental goals of the church - procreation and increasing membership;
Or have the hierarchy also inherited this mindset to the extent that they don't realize what the source of the power it is that they are wielding.
After all, the authorities - being businessmen and attorneys - do not have any academic grounding in the humanities, philosophy, psychology, or theology. So they may not even have necessary insight into their own motivations.
